Vinted vs Depop: which is better for Australian sellers?

Since July 2026 neither charges Australian sellers a selling fee, but Depop takes a small payment fee and 8% when a sale comes from a Boost. The bigger difference is who buys on each, and what they’ll pay.

Updated 19 Oct 2026

Quick answer: Vinted leaves you more on everyday clothes, kids’ things and homeware, because it takes nothing from sellers. Depop can be worth it for streetwear, Y2K and vintage, where its younger buyers may pay more. On a $20 item with $11.70 postage you keep $20.00 on Vinted and $18.88 on Depop.

When Vinted wins

Vinted takes nothing from sellers, and the buyer pays for postage, so the price you list at is the price you receive. For everyday clothes, kids’ things and homeware, its audience of bargain hunters usually means a quicker sale.

When Depop wins

Depop’s buyers lean younger and come for style: streetwear, Y2K, vintage and one-off pieces. If an item suits that crowd, it may sell for a few dollars more than on Vinted, which easily covers Depop’s processing fee of about $1.12 on a $20 sale.

Think before you Boost

A Boost on Depop costs 8% of the item price, but only if the sale comes from it. That’s $1.60 on a $20 item. It can help a listing get seen, but on cheaper items it takes a noticeable share.

Can you list on both?

Yes. Lots of sellers list the same item on both and remove the other listing as soon as it sells. Be quick to delist so you don’t sell it twice.
