Commission Overview
Swap.com provides the most competitive commission structure in the marketplace. Check out the payout structure below.
Sales Commission Structure
Item sell price $8.00 and Under:
Sales proceeds 15% in Cash
Add 20% for Credit Payout
Item sell price $8.01 and Above:
Sales proceeds 70% in Cash
Add 20% for Credit Payout

We prefer to pay our sellers the highest commission possible on quality brand/higher ticket items. The additional fee covers the fulfillment costs to pack and ship your product to our customers. *Why the additional fee?
Example 1:
Item sells for $7.00:
$7.00 * .15 = $1.05/cash
$7.00 * .15 * 1.2 = $1.26/credit
Example 2:
Item sells for $20.00:
$20.00 * .70 - $4.95 = $9.05/cash
($20.00 * .70 - $4.95) * 1.2 = $10.86/credit
Additional Payout Overview
- Please note that if you choose to be paid in store credit for your items, the applicable fees will be deducted on a cash basis first. You will be eligible to earn credit after your negative balance is paid off. Store credit cannot be changed to cash later.
- Any inbound fees and surcharges would need to be deducted before starting to earn commission.
- The remaining balance is the balance that is used to calculate your sales proceeds, whether you have selected to receive store credit or cash.
