Understanding Reverb Fees in 2026
Reverb is the best marketplace for musical instruments, but their fee structure is two-part. They charge a 5% selling fee on the total amount (Item + Shipping). On top of that, Reverb Payments charges a processing fee of 3.19% + $0.49 per transaction. If you are a "Reverb Preferred Seller," your processing fee drops slightly to 2.99% + $0.49.
