How TikTok Shop seller fees work

TikTok Shop charges a referral fee on each order — 6% for most categories in its published US rate table, with lower rates in a few categories such as jewelry. The fee is worked out on what the buyer pays for the items, not on shipping or sales tax, and payment processing is included.

Some sellers report the standard rate rising to 8% in 2026, so check the rate in your Seller Center and pick the matching plan. If creators sell your product, their affiliate commission comes out of the sale as well, and it is often the biggest cost.

Worked example: A $30 order with free shipping and a 15% creator commission

Order total:
$30.00
Referral fee (6%):
−$1.80
Creator affiliate commission (15%):
−$4.50
TikTok pays you:
$23.70
Profit after $4.50 shipping and $8 item cost:
$11.20

At an 8% referral rate the fee is $2.40 and profit drops to $10.60.

  • New US sellers can get a reduced referral rate for their first 30 days; there is a preset for it.
  • Affiliate commission is set by you per product, so it is the fee you control most.
  • Discounts TikTok funds are added back before the referral fee is worked out; discounts you fund are not.
