How much does Fiverr take?
Fiverr charges sellers a flat 20% fee on every order. The fee also applies to gig extras and to tips. So when a buyer pays for a $50 gig, the seller earns $40. The buyer pays a separate service fee on top of the gig price, which does not come out of your earnings.
After the 20% fee, there can be two more small costs:
- Withdrawal fee: some withdrawal methods have a small fixed fee per withdrawal. Making fewer, larger withdrawals saves money.
- Currency conversion: if you receive the money in PKR, INR, AED or another currency, the payment service usually takes a small percentage through its exchange rate.
How much does Fiverr charge buyers?
Buyers pay a separate service fee at checkout. According to Fiverr's Help Center, it is 5.5% of the purchase amount, plus $3.50 on orders under $200. Some countries also add tax such as VAT. The buyer pays this fee, so it does not come out of the seller's earnings.
- $5 gig: buyer pays about $8.78 (about $3.78 fee), seller receives $4.00
- $50 gig: buyer pays $56.25 ($6.25 fee), seller receives $40.00
- $100 gig: buyer pays $109.00 ($9.00 fee), seller receives $80.00
- $200 gig: buyer pays $211.00 ($11.00 fee), seller receives $160.00
Every payment has its own fee, so a tip or an extra added later carries a separate buyer fee. In some regions Fiverr now shows buyers the "all-in" price (gig price plus fees) while they browse. This does not change what the seller earns.
How to use the calculator
- "I know my gig price": enter the price, the number of orders and any withdrawal or conversion costs. The calculator shows what you keep.
- "I know what I want to receive": enter the amount you want in your pocket. The calculator shows what you need to charge.
- Add an exchange rate and currency code (for example 280 and PKR) to see the result in your own money.
Tips to keep more of your Fiverr earnings
- Price with the fee in mind. If you want to receive $40, your gig should cost $50.
- Sell packages and extras. Basic, Standard and Premium packages raise the average order value, so the same work earns more.
- Withdraw less often. One withdrawal a month costs less than four small ones when there is a fixed fee.
- Bring repeat clients. Happy buyers come back, and repeat orders take less time to win.
