How much are payment processor fees for digital sales?

Payment processor fees for digital sales vary by payment method, currency, and where the purchase is made. These payment processor fees are applied automatically, and you can see the exact amounts in your sales and earnings details in your account.

In addition to the revenue share that Bandcamp collects, payment processor fees apply to all transactions processed on your account. Here's how it works for digital sales:

For transactions greater than or equal to $8.07, the transaction fee is 1.9% + $0.30 when your fan uses PayPal, 2.9% + $0.30 when paying with a gift card, and 2.2% + $0.30 when your fan uses a credit card. For smaller transactions (under $8.07) we minimize the fee by automatically switching to the payment processor’s alternate rate of 5% + $0.05.

When we send you a bulk payout, PayPal’s fee is 1% of the total payout amount, capped at $1.

Fees may vary depending on geographic location or payment method.
