How this is worked out

An ordinary (non-Mall) shop, one item, no vouchers. Rates include VAT. Not included: small-seller or new-seller discounts, ads and affiliate commission. Shopee's PRIME fee is worked out on the item price (the official page doesn't state the base). Other categories have different rates; see each platform's table.

Sources (checked 2026-10-26): Shopee (effective 2026-08-04) · Lazada (effective 2026-08-01) · TikTok Shop (effective 2026-07-05) · Rates change often; check with the platform before deciding.

The trade-off: marketplaces bring you new buyers. Selling in chat has no per-order fee, but you find your own buyers and handle payment yourself, which is why many shops do both.
