The maths: Fiverr commission = order × 20%. You receive = order × 80%. Price to charge = amount you want ÷ 0.8.
The 20% is flat: there is no lower tier for high earners or repeat clients, and it applies to extras and tips as well as the base gig price. Withdrawal and currency-conversion costs, where they apply, come out after this figure.
The maths: service fee = subtotal × 5.5%. Small-order fee = $3.50 when the payment is under $200, otherwise $0. Total you pay = subtotal + both fees. Taxes, where they apply, are added by Fiverr on top and are not included here.
Watch the $200 line: a $199 payment carries the $3.50 fee, a $200 payment does not — so bundling small extras into one payment of $200 or more can cost less overall than paying for them separately.
Seller: Fiverr credits the seller 80% of the purchase amount on every completed order, including Gig extras and tips — a flat 20% commission (Fiverr Payment Terms, last updated September 2026). Buyer: the standard service fee is 5.5% of the purchase amount, plus a $3.50 fee on orders under $200, charged per payment (Fiverr Help Center, “Paying for orders, extras, or custom offers”).

See exactly what a Fiverr order leaves you: the flat 20% seller commission and your take-home, the price to charge to receive a target amount, and — in the buyer view — the full checkout total with the 5.5% service fee and the $3.50 small-order fee on orders under $200. Fees checked 29 October 2026 against Fiverr’s own Help Center and Payment Terms.
A seller completes a $250 order: Fiverr’s commission is $250 × 20% = $50, so the seller is credited $200. Working backwards, a seller who wants to receive $200 must charge $200 ÷ 0.8 = $250. On the buyer side, a $100 gig costs $100 + $5.50 service fee (5.5%) + $3.50 small-order fee = $109.00 at checkout, while a $250 gig costs $250 + $13.75 = $263.75 because the small-order fee no longer applies at $200 or more.

Seller: Fiverr credits the seller’s account with 80% of the purchase amount on every completed order — a flat 20% commission with no volume tiers, applying to the gig price, Gig extras and tips alike. You receive = order × 0.8, and the price to charge for a target take-home is target ÷ 0.8. Buyer: the standard service fee is 5.5% of the purchase amount, plus a fixed $3.50 fee on orders under $200, charged per payment — so an order, an extra and a tip paid separately each carry their own fee. Buyer total = subtotal × 1.055 + ($3.50 if the payment is under $200, else $0). Empty fields show a dash rather than a misleading zero breakdown.
A flat 20% of the purchase amount on every completed order, at every seller level — Fiverr credits you 80% of what the buyer was charged for the gig, including on Gig extras and tips. On a $250 order that is a $50 commission and $200 credited to you. There is no tier that lowers the rate as you earn more.
A service fee of 5.5% of the purchase price, plus a $3.50 fee when the payment is under $200. A $100 gig therefore costs $109.00 at checkout, while a $250 gig costs $263.75. Each separate payment — the order, an extra, a tip — carries its own service fee.
Divide the amount you want to receive by 0.8. To take home $200, charge $250; to take home $80, charge $100. The reverse section of the seller view does this for any target and also shows what your buyer would pay for that price.
Because the $3.50 small-order fee applies to payments under $200 and drops away at $200. A $199 payment totals $199 + $10.95 (5.5%) + $3.50 = $213.45, while a $200 payment totals $200 + $11.00 = $211.00. Bundling work into one payment of $200 or more can therefore be cheaper than splitting it.
Yes. Tips and Gig extras are credited at the same 80% rate as the main order, so a $50 tip credits the seller $40. The buyer also pays the service fee on the tip payment, including the $3.50 fee if that payment is under $200.
No. Fiverr adds applicable taxes at checkout on top of the fees shown here, and getting your credited earnings out — PayPal, bank transfer via Payoneer and the other methods Fiverr offers — can carry its own fees and conversion costs depending on your country and method.
