There is a subscription cost of R400 per seller account per month (you can cancel at any time). In addition to this subscription fee, there are other costs that may apply, including:



  • Success fees, which are referral fees that cover transactional costs and customer support. These fees are calculated as a percentage of the selling price per item sold, inclusive of VAT but excluding shipping. They range from 5% to 15%, depending on the product category. This fee will be credited in case a product is returned.
  • Fulfilment fee per item shipped from a Takealot warehouse. This depends on the product’s size. The lowest fee is R18 per item less than or equal to 7kg, while the highest is R340 per item greater than or equal to 40kg and less than or equal to 70kg.
  • Storage fees, which are only charged on products that have a stock cover of more than 35 days. To avoid being charged, you can choose to sell on lead time and only deliver the number of products ordered. Otherwise, storage fees start at R4 per item per month for stock cover of 35-45 days and up to R1,800 per item per month for stock cover of more than 60 days, depending on the item’s size.
