Fees differ by category, promotion and seller status, so treat this as a planning model. Check your current rates in TikTok Seller Centre before committing to a price or a commission offer.
How to use it
- 01
Start with your selling price
Use the price a customer actually pays, after any voucher or flash-sale discount you plan to run.
- 02
Add your true cost of goods
Landed cost per unit including duty and inbound freight, not the ex-factory price.
- 03
Set the platform fee
TikTok Shop's referral and transaction fees vary by category and promotion. Check your seller centre rate and enter it here.
- 04
Set your affiliate commission
Use the rate on your open plan. If you also run targeted plans at a higher rate, model your blended average.
- 05
Read the break-even rate
That's the highest commission you can offer before an order stops making money. Stay well under it.
What good looks like
Net margin above 25%
Below that, one bad return week or a shipping price rise wipes out the profit on the whole product line.
Commission that creators actually want
Under 10% on an open plan rarely gets picked up in competitive categories. If you can't afford 15-20%, the price point is the problem, not the creators.
Returns under 8%
High returns usually mean the content is over-promising. Fix the demo before you fix the product.
Bundle to lift basket value
Fixed costs per order barely move when the basket grows, so bundles are the fastest route to a healthier margin.
