If you’re planning to use Payhip to sell digital products, physical goods, courses, or memberships, one key thing to understand is how much Payhip takes in commissions or transaction fees. Let’s break it down clearly.
How Payhip's Fee Structure Works
Payhip offers different plans, and the commission Payhip takes depends on which plan you are using. Even with the free plan, there are fees; upgrading can reduce or remove those fees.
Here are the details:
| Payhip Plan | Monthly Fee | Commission / Transaction Fee Charged by Payhip |
|---|---|---|
| Free Forever | $0 / month | 5% per sale |
| Plus | $29 / month | 2% per sale |
| Pro | $99 / month | 0% per sale (no commission taken) |
Other Fees You Need to Be Aware Of
Apart from the commission Payhip takes, there are additional costs:
-
Payment processor fees: PayPal and Stripe both charge their own standard processing fees for each transaction.
-
Currency conversion or international transaction fees: These may apply depending on where you or your customers are located.
What This Means for Sellers
-
On the Free plan, Payhip takes 5% of every sale you make.
-
On the Plus plan, the commission drops to 2%, which helps improve your profit margin if you’re making consistent sales.
-
On the Pro plan, Payhip doesn’t take any commission at all, making it ideal for high-volume sellers who want to maximize their earnings.
Conclusion
Yes, Payhip does take a commission—how much depends on which plan you choose. The Free plan has the highest commission (5%), the Plus plan reduces it (2%), and the Pro plan removes Payhip’s commission entirely. Keep in mind, though, that payment processor fees (from PayPal or Stripe) still apply on all plans.
