Formula
Commission = Selling Price × Commission Rate (%) | Payment Fee = Selling Price × Payment Rate (%) | Total Fees = Commission + Payment Fee + Shipping + Ad Cost | Net Revenue = Selling Price − Total Fees | Effective Fee % = (Total Fees ÷ Selling Price) × 100
Lazada charges commission and payment processing fees as percentages of the selling price. Shipping and ad costs are direct per-unit deductions. The net revenue is what remains after all fees. Effective fee percentage shows total fees as a proportion of selling price, making it easy to compare across products and platforms.
Worked Example
Product selling for PHP 500 · Commission 3% · Payment fee 2% · Shipping PHP 50 · Ad cost PHP 30.
Commission = PHP 500 × 3% = PHP 15
Payment fee = PHP 500 × 2% = PHP 10
Total fees = PHP 15 + PHP 10 + PHP 50 + PHP 30 = PHP 105
Net revenue = PHP 500 − PHP 105 = PHP 395
Effective fee % = (PHP 105 ÷ PHP 500) × 100 = 21%
The seller keeps PHP 395 per unit before product cost and packaging. For profitability, product cost must be significantly lower than PHP 395.

Common mistake: ignoring payment processing fees
Many sellers only subtract commission and miss payment fees, which add up quickly.
| Fee Type | Impact on $100 Sale |
|---|---|
| Commission (3%) | $3.00 |
| Payment fee (2%) | $2.00 |
| Shipping | $5.00 |
| Ad cost (allocated) | $2.00 |
| Total fees | $12.00 |
| Net revenue (after fees) | $88.00 |
Ignoring payment fees (2%) costs $2 per $100 sale — on 500 units per month at $100 each, that's $1,000 in overlooked costs that reduces your profit.

Frequently asked questions
What fees does Lazada charge sellers?
Lazada charges a commission percentage on sales value and payment processing fees, plus optional shipping fees depending on your fulfillment model (Seller Delivery or Lazada Logistics). Fees vary significantly by product category, seller tier (regular, premium, verified), and current promotional campaigns or seasonal events.
How do I find my exact Lazada fee rates?
Log in to your Lazada Seller Center, navigate to Account > Commission Rates, or check the commission table for your specific product category. Rates are market-specific — Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, and Vietnam each have different rate structures. Always verify rates before setting your prices.
Can I negotiate or reduce Lazada fees?
Fees are set by Lazada per category and seller tier and cannot be negotiated directly. However, reaching higher seller tiers (based on sales volume, product quality ratings, and on-time fulfillment) often unlocks lower commission rates. LazMall premium seller programs may also offer fee reductions.
How do I calculate my profit margin?
Profit margin = (Net Revenue − Product Cost − Other Costs) ÷ Selling Price × 100. Use this calculator to find net revenue after all Lazada fees, then subtract product cost, packaging, and labour to determine net profit per unit.
Should I include ad costs in my pricing?
Yes, if you run paid ads on Lazada. Take your monthly ad budget, divide by expected units sold that month, and allocate that per unit. This ensures your pricing covers advertising costs and helps you determine whether paid promotion is actually profitable for each product.
What is effective fee percentage?
Effective fee percentage = (Total Fees ÷ Selling Price) × 100. It shows the total cost of selling on Lazada as a percentage of your selling price. A 10% effective fee rate means Lazada costs reduce your selling price by 10% — useful for comparing against other platforms or your own products.
