Faire Fee Context for Jewelry

Pricing Tip for Jewelry

For handmade jewelry, your labor cost is often higher than materials. Track your time per piece and price it in — don't absorb it into overhead or you'll underprice.

Jewelry Fee Calculator FAQ

How much does Faire take from jewelry sales?

Faire charges 15% commission on marketplace jewelry orders, $10 new customer fee on first orders, and 1.9–3.5% payment processing. On a $250 jewelry order, that's $37.50 commission + $10 new customer fee + $4.75 processing = ~$52.25 total.

Is jewelry profitable on Faire after fees?

Yes, if priced correctly. Jewelry has some of the highest gross margins of any Faire category because materials cost is a smaller percentage of retail than in many categories. The key is building Faire's ~17% total fee into your wholesale price from the start.

Should jewelry brands choose faster or slower Faire payouts?

If cash flow allows, the 60-day payout at 1.9% vs. the next-day 3.5% saves meaningful money at scale. On $5,000/month in Faire revenue, that's ~$80/month or ~$960/year in savings just from payout timing.
