Worked example

12 orders at $150 is $1,800.00, plus $40.00 in tips makes $1,840.00. Fiverr's 20% commission is $368.00, leaving $1,472.00 a month, or $17,664.00 a year. On a single $150 order you keep $120.00, and the buyer pays $161.75 because their 5.5% service fee ($8.25) and the $3.50 added to orders under $200 sit on top. To keep $100 per order you would price at $125.00.

How it works

Fiverr's buyer's guide on its community blog says the platform keeps 20% of all transactions, tips included, and its Pro freelancer help article tells sellers to factor the 20% commission into their prices. Fiverr's payment help article separately describes a buyer service fee of 5.5% of the purchase, with $3.50 added to orders under $200.

The buyer's fee is shown so you can see what a client actually pays; it is not taken out of your earnings. Withdrawal charges, taxes on your income, and Fiverr Ads spend are not modelled.
