Fees
See what you keep
One flat seller fee, set by your sale price. Buyers pay no fee. PayPal’s processing fee (about 3.49% + $0.49, their standard rate as of Nov 2026) applies on top, same as on Swappa.
| Sale price | Seller fee |
|---|---|
| Under $450 | $15 |
| $450 – $799 | $25 |
| $800 – $1,199 | $45 |
| $1,200 – $1,599 | $65 |
| $1,600 and up | $85 |
No buyer fees: the price buyers see is the price they pay, plus any sales tax. Swappa adds 3% to the buyer’s price and takes 3% from the seller, so the calculator compares what you keep when your buyer pays the same total on each site.

How it works
Four steps from drawer to paid
- 1
Pick your phone
Choose the model, storage and carrier, and enter the IMEI privately. Buyers never see it.
- 2
We check it
We check the IMEI against lost, stolen and blacklist reports and review your photos by hand before the listing goes live.
- 3
The buyer pays first
The buyer pays through PayPal before you ship anything. PayPal may hold a new seller's payment until the phone is delivered.
- 4
Ship it
Print the prepaid label from your sale page and drop it off. Your flat fee, PayPal's processing fee and the label come out of the sale.
Trust
Checked before it’s listed
A low fee only matters if the phone is legit. These checks will run on every listing.
Blacklist check
Every IMEI will be checked against lost, stolen and blacklist reports before the listing goes live.
Proof it's in hand
Sellers will photograph the phone next to a code we give them, so you know it's real and it's theirs.
PayPal protection
Every sale will run through PayPal. If a phone isn't as described, the buyer can open a dispute with PayPal to get their money back.
How is the fee flat if it has tiers?
Each price range has one fixed dollar fee, not a percentage. You see the exact amount before you list: a $1,000 phone costs $45 to sell, an $1,800 phone costs $85. PayPal still charges its usual processing fee on the payment, same as on Swappa.
Do buyers pay anything extra?
No buyer fee. The listed price is the price, plus sales tax where your state requires it.
What can't I sell?
Phones with a blacklisted or financed IMEI, activation lock, cracked glass, water damage, or anything that doesn't fully work.

Our mission
We believe selling your used technology shouldn’t cost a fortune.
Marketplaces have made buying and selling easier, but fees can take a significant bite out of the money sellers work hard to earn. FlatFeeTech was created to offer a simpler, more affordable alternative. We’re here to give people another choice.
