Ask not for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for fees (#sorrynotsorry). This Fiverr calculator spits out buyer and seller fees in one quick click.
Seller and buyer alike, Fiverr wants its cut every time you make a deal on the platform. Fiverr will deduct service fees automatically, so you don’t have to make any calculations yourself.
But if you want to find out what your total earnings or payment will be before an order has been placed, you will need to calculate what Fiverr will charge yourself.
Ugh. That simply won’t do!
I’ve built a Fiverr Fee Calculator that does all that taxing math for you – all you have to do is enter the gig price and click. Want to try another price? Just click recalculate.

Fiverr Calculator FAQs
People have a surprising amount of questions about this tool! Here are some of the most common questions.
How much does it cost for Freelancers to join Fiverr?
Nothing. Fiverr is free to join as a buyer and a seller.
Why is the Calculator Wonky-Looking?
Because I am a writer, not a programmer. I used my basic knowledge of HTML and CSS to put this together with a little –OK, a lot of – help from AI for the more challenging parts. I can’t figure out how to fix the wonky bits. I would definitely appreciate it if someone could help me with that!
What is Fiverr?
Fiverr is an online marketplace where sellers offer productivized services called gigs. Buyers can browse gigs and order them. The freelancing platform charges sellers a fee of 20 percent on their earnings, while buyers need to calculate the Fiverr service fee a little more carefully – hence the calculator.
Is Fiverr Safe to Use for a Buyer?
Yes, the platform is incredibly safe for buyers. All buyer payments are held in escrow until you’re satisfied with the work. If things go wrong, Fiverr’s customer support is available 24/7 to help you resolve the issue.
Why does the Fiverr Platform take a Commission?
Because it provides a service! More seriously, Fiverr’s a big company. Even in 2021, the company had 787 employees based in Tel Aviv and its worldwide offices in New York, San Francisco, Miami, London, and Berlin. Fiverr operates in over 160 countries. While fees are never fun to pay, they do keep this multinational freelance machine going.
The freelance platform charges sellers a fee of 20% on their earnings, while buyers need to calculate the Fiverr fee a little more carefully due to the addition of the small order fee. You can do this in one click with the calculator tool above.
Is This Fiverr Fee Calculator Tool Safe to Use?
Yes, it’s perfectly safe to use. No data is stored; the fee calculator is simple online tool. Feel free to adjust the price and play away – this is a great tool for working out what you can do when you have multiple things you need done on a limited budget. You can now compare full prices in one spot.
With that said, it’s a good idea to check the fees on Fiverr as they are subject to change without notice. The easiest way to do this is to click on the order now button which will take you to the checkout page. On the checkout page, you’ll be able to see how much you will be charged and what your final price is.
How Much Does Fiverr Cost?
It’s free to sign up to Fiverr and use most of its services. You will not be charged fees until you are involved in a transaction, either as a buyer or a seller. Fiverr also offers some optional paid programs like Seller Plus.
How Can I Avoid Paying Fees?
No, not without breaking the TOS. As a seller, the best way to avoid paying fees is to simply add 20% to your pricing – it’s no different to accounting for the tax portion of your earnings.
Buyers can also request a discount equivalent to their fee, though results may be mixed – not all sellers appreciate being asked for discounts. This is especially true for sellers offering lower priced gigs. There isn’t much left over from $5 after everyone from Fiverr to the taxman has taken their cut.
Will This Tool Calculate Any Special Gig Fees ?
The Fiverr fee calculator only calculates the basic fees that buyers and sellers pay with every transaction. If you’re looking for a calculator that can also include the impact of paid features like Early Payout (1%), you’re out of luck. While there are a few other Fiverr calculator tools out there, none of them offer that functionality.
What Percentage Does Fiverr Take From Tips?
Yes. Fiverr treats all transactions on the platform the same. If you’re a seller, this means you will always pay Fiverr a 20% commission when someone pays you. If you’re a buyer, the fee structure is set so you will always pay 5.5% of the purchase amount. All transactions under $75 are subject to an additional $2.50 small order fee, paid by the buyer.
Do Sellers Need a Fiverr Fee Calculator?
Not really, since the Fiverr cut from sellers is 20%. This tool is useful for quickly coming up with estimates or custom offers, as you’ll know how much Fiverr will take at any price point you give it. You can also use the fee calculator to give your leads the full order price easily. This is useful for buyers who want to know the full price upfront. This tool will give you superb customer service skills, because you’ll be able to answer quickly and accurately!
What Are the Fiverr buyer Fees?
Fiverr buyer fees are a simple 5.5% service charge. The only exception to this is Fiverr Enterprise’s fee model, which is a separate platform designed for corporate buyers. If the gig is under $75, then a Fiverr charge fee of $2.50 also applies.
