GOAT Seller Fees Calculator
Calculate GOAT seller fees and payout in USD
GOAT fee calculator FAQs
What GOAT fees does this calculator include?
The calculator rolls your GOAT commission, any cash-out fee %, and the location-based seller fee into a simple model: one percentage plus one fixed fee per sale. You plug in the total % and the flat seller fee, and the tool estimates total fees and net payout in USD.
How do I set the fee % for my GOAT seller rating?
Check the fee table in GOAT’s help center or your account, find your commission % by rating tier, then add any cash-out % if you want to model withdrawing earnings. For example, 9.5% commission plus ~2.9% cash-out would be entered as 12.4%.
What should I use for the fixed seller fee?
GOAT charges a seller fee based on location (for example, around $5 in the US in many cases). Use that value in the fixed fee box. If GOAT lists a different seller fee for your country, overwrite $5.00 with that amount.
Does this calculator include shipping or storage fees?
No. To keep it fast and simple, this tool only models the GOAT fees you enter. It does not include shipping to GOAT, storage, Flex, or customs. You can account for those separately as part of your cost of goods or in a more detailed profit spreadsheet.
Is this an official GOAT fee calculator?
No. This is an independent GOAT fee estimator for planning and pricing. Official commissions, seller fees, and cash-out rules are always listed in the GOAT fee policy and your account dashboard. Use those as your final reference before making financial decisions.
How to use this GOAT seller fees calculator
This GOAT seller fees calculator gives you a quick estimate of what GOAT keeps from each sale and what you actually earn. It’s aimed at sneaker resellers, vintage apparel sellers, and side hustlers who want to sanity-check payouts before accepting offers or setting list prices.
1. Enter the final sale price you expect on GOAT
Start with the final sale price in USD — the amount the buyer pays for your listing on GOAT (before their taxes and separate shipping charges). The calculator treats this as the fee base and estimates total GOAT fees and your net payout as soon as you run the calculation.
2. Add a target payout if you have a minimum in mind
If you know the minimum you want to keep after GOAT fees, use the “You want to receive after fees” box. When you enter a target net, the tool works backward and shows the minimum sale price required to leave that amount in your GOAT balance, plus the fees and effective fee rate at that level.
3. Match the fee settings to GOAT’s current policy
GOAT charges a commission % that depends on your seller rating, plus a location-based seller fee, and often a separate cash-out fee when you withdraw earnings. To mirror that inside this tool:
- Take your commission % from the GOAT seller fee table for your rating tier.
- Add any extra % you want to model for cashing out (for example 2.9%).
- Enter that total in “GOAT + payout fee (%)”.
- Set the fixed seller fee to the amount GOAT lists for your country.
4. Read the breakdown to see what GOAT takes
The results card shows one headline: either your net payout on the sale you entered or the required sale price to hit your target net. Under that, you see a breakdown of sale price, total GOAT fees, your payout, and the effective fee %. That number makes it easy to judge whether a given offer still leaves enough margin after platform costs.
5. Use it to compare GOAT with StockX, TikTok Shop, and more
Run a few quick “what if” scenarios: bump the sale price, change the fee %, or tweak the fixed seller fee. Then compare the same inputs against your StockX fee and TikTok Shop profit calculators to decide where each pair should be listed. The Copy summary button gives you a clean, text-only breakdown you can paste into spreadsheets, sourcing notes, or group chats with other resellers.
Treat this as an unofficial estimator. It does not include your product cost, shipping to GOAT, storage or Flex fees, or taxes. Always confirm the final fee lines and payouts inside your GOAT account and talk to a tax or accounting pro if you are making bigger business decisions from your reselling income.
How the GOAT fee math works
This calculator models GOAT with a percentage fee plus a fixed seller fee. Let G be the final sale price in USD (the amount the buyer pays for your item on GOAT before their own taxes and shipping). Let r be your combined GOAT fee rate as a decimal (for example 0.124 for 12.4%), and f be the fixed seller fee in USD (for example 5.00).
The total GOAT fees in this model are:
GOAT fees = G × r + f
Your payout after those fees is:
Net payout = G − (G × r + f)
When you enter a target net payout, the calculator solves the same equation for the sale price needed to hit that amount. If N is the net you want in USD, the minimum total sale price is:
Required sale price = (N + f) ÷ (1 − r)
Finally, the effective fee rate shown in the results is:
Effective fee % = GOAT fees ÷ sale price × 100
That gives you a consistent way to compare GOAT against other marketplaces or your own direct store and see how much of each order goes to platform and payout fees before your own costs.
