TikTok Shop fees explained
TikTok Shop's public US fee table lists a 6% referral fee for most categories (5% for some), calculated on what the customer pays plus platform discounts, minus tax. New sellers may get a lower rate for their first 30 days.
The big variable is creator affiliate commission. Sellers set it themselves, often 10–20%, and it is usually a much bigger cost than the platform fee. Some 2026 guides report a higher standard rate, so check your Seller Center and edit the rate if yours differs.
