How it’s calculated

Net profit / unit = Sale price − GST owed − Referral fee − FBA fee − Closing fees − Product cost − Inbound shipping − Other costs − Ads per unit

GST owed is 1/11 of the price if you're registered for GST, and Amazon's fees then count ex GST because you claim their GST back. If you're not registered you owe no GST on the sale, but Amazon's fees cost you 10% more. Break-even ACoS = profit before ads ÷ sale price.

What your result means

This is what you keep on an Amazon.com.au sale once Amazon, the ATO and your own costs have taken their share. Three things make it different from the US calculators that rank for this search. Referral fees are lower and simpler — most categories sit between 6% and 15%, with no minimum fee — but six categories switch to a higher rate on the whole price above $20, which can make a small price rise almost worthless. The FBA fee follows Amazon Australia's own size tiers and weight bands, with $0.91 less per unit for items priced under $13. And Amazon publishes every fee excluding GST, so whether you're registered for GST changes both what the sale is worth to you and what the fees really cost.

Common mistakes

  • Using a US FBA calculator. Amazon's US referral table runs up to 45% with a $0.30 minimum in most categories; the Australian table tops out at 15% and has no minimum, and neither US figure knows about GST.
  • Treating the listed price as yours. If you're registered for GST, 1/11 of every sale goes to the ATO — $3.63 of a $39.95 sale.
  • Pricing just over $20 in a category that switches rate there. In Beauty, Health and Personal Care a $19.95 product pays 8% ($1.60) and a $21.95 one pays 13% ($2.85).
  • Weighing the product instead of the box. For parcels and oversize items Amazon charges on the greater of unit weight and dimensional weight — length × width × height in cm ÷ 4,000, in kg.
  • Using January-to-September storage rates in the peak. Storage is $37.00 per cubic metre a month until September and $51.80 from October to December.

Frequently asked questions

What fees does Amazon charge sellers in Australia?

A selling plan — $49.95 a month on Professional if you only list on Amazon.com.au, or $0.99 per item sold on Individual. A referral fee on every sale, set by category. If you use FBA, a fulfilment fee per unit set by size tier and weight, plus monthly storage per cubic metre. Media items also pay a $1.00 closing fee. Amazon publishes all of these in AUD, excluding GST.

How much is Amazon's referral fee in Australia?

Most categories are between 6% and 15%: Consumer Electronics is 8%, Toys & Games 12%, Home and Kitchen 13% and Everything else 15%. Some switch rate at $20 — Beauty, Health and Personal Care is 8% at $20 or less and 13% above — and some charge a lower rate on the portion above a threshold, like Jewellery at 15% up to $200 and 5% above. It's charged on the total sales price, including delivery and gift wrapping, with no minimum or maximum. Read from Amazon's pricing page on 16 October 2026.

Do Amazon Australia's fees include GST?

No. Amazon publishes its Australian fees excluding GST and adds GST where it applies. If you're registered for GST you can generally claim that GST back as a credit on your BAS; if you're not, it's a cost. Set the GST question in the calculator to match you and it handles both.

How much is the FBA fulfilment fee in Australia?

From $4.55 for a small envelope (up to 20 × 15 × 1 cm and 75 g). Parcels up to 45 × 34 × 20 cm and 12 kg run from $7.34 (up to 250 g) to $13.93 (11–12 kg), and the oversize tiers cost more. Items priced under $13 pay $0.91 less in every band. All ex GST, from the schedule Amazon made effective on 10 June 2026.

Do I need to register for GST to sell on Amazon Australia?

The ATO requires you to register once your GST turnover reaches $75,000 — counting the current month and the previous 11, or projected over the current month and the next 11. Below that it's optional. This calculator isn't tax advice; check your own position with your accountant or the ATO.

Is this the same as Amazon's Revenue Calculator?

It uses the same published fees, with two additions: your ad cost per unit, which gives you a break-even ACoS, and your GST position shown next to the fees. It needs no Seller Central sign-in, so you can test a product before you list it.
