We love providing users with articles, videos and free looks at amazing gear. But we need to keep the lights on too. See below to find out how Reverb gets paid from your sales and our amazing Bump products. We think you'll be amazed at how inexpensive we are, but our employees sure are grateful for the paychecks. |
Who says you can't have a better experience and pay less for it? We believe we can build a marketplace focused on serving musicians and gear lovers, and charge a modest transaction fee of 3.5% by leveraging our extensive knowledge and experience combined with superior technology.
Transaction fees for Reverb.com are 3.5% of the total value of the transaction, including shipping. Transaction fees for Reverb LP are 6% of the total transaction, including shipping.
The maximum fee discussed above is based on transactions in the United States and USD, but the maximum transaction amount and fee may differ by the country and currency when payouts in multiple currencies are available on April 1, 2018:
Currency | Maximum Sale Amount | Maximum Fee Charged |
USD | $10,000 | $350usd |
CAD | $15,000 | $525cad |
EUR | €10,000 | €350 |
GBP | £10,000 | £350 |
Fees will include final sale price of an item as well as shipping fees on an order.
At the beginning of the month, each seller is emailed an invoice detailing the amount due. A seller must pay the amount due in full within 15 days of the date of the invoice. If you are a Reverb Payments user your fees will be deducted from your payout(s) rather than billed on the first of the month. If you use Reverb Payments and you receive a statement credit in a particular month, your seller fees may not be deducted and, instead, will be added to a end-of-month statement for which you will be auto-charged.
Starting on April 1, 2018, all sellers listing items in currencies of CAD, GBP and EUR, will also receive their invoices in those same currencies. Additionally, if you use Reverb Payments and list in currencies of CAD, GBP and EUR, your fees will be deducted in those same currencies.
There may be additional fees included in the use of the platform depending on the services you use. They may include:

Reverb may, at Reverb's sole discretion, change some or all of Reverb's services at any time. In the event Reverb introduces a new service, the fees for that service are effective at the launch of the service.
Unless otherwise stated, all fees are quoted in US Dollars (USD). In certain situations, including but not limited to a void or invalid transaction and returns, Reverb may issue a credit for the applicable fees to a seller's billing statement. You are responsible for paying all fees, shipping fees based on accurate weights and measurements and applicable taxes associated with using Reverb. Reverb allows sellers to indicate applicable tax jurisdictions which will be collected from buyers through Reverb at point of sale. Reverb keeps accepted payment information on file.
Reverb provides a method of promoting your listing on the platform and it's called Bump. Bump allows you to bid a percentage of your listing price to compete with other sellers for premium placement of your items on the platform. Reverb charges for these services in a manner explained below. By purchasing Reverb Bump, you consent in advance to these charges.
When you purchase Bump, you bid a percentage of the list price to raise the profile of the listing up to owning the “Add to Cart” button at the top of the Comparative Shopping Page as well as increasing visibility through our third-party marketing channels. If your listing does not sell, you will not be charged for the Bump. By purchasing Bump, you consent to the deduction of the cost of any Bumps from the payout associated with the bumped item(s).
