Source as for table 1. The PDF contains the full list of 1845 subcategories with their assigned rates.
Media Expert defines commission as a percentage of the sales contract value including delivery. The base is therefore the full amount the customer paid, shipping charge included. Every zloty charged for delivery raises the commission by the category rate, at 12.90% gross by just under 13 grosz. With free delivery, the base is the product price alone.
The rates in the table are gross, including VAT. If you are VAT-registered and deduct VAT from the commission invoice, your cost is the net rate, meaning gross divided by 1.23. The conversion gives round net rates: 12.29% gross is 9.99% net, 15.98% is 12.99%, and 18.45% is 15%. When you compare with platforms that quote net rates, use the net column. Empik, a major Polish media and lifestyle marketplace, publishes both versions, as we show on our page on Empik commission.
The commission table we take our data from does not state a subscription amount or any other fixed fees.
Nor does the table describe Media Expert’s logistics services, advertising, or how commission is settled on returns and cancellations. You can check these terms in the marketplace regulations and in your contract. In the calculator, enter the shipping cost as you would for your own logistics, and advertising as a percentage of turnover.
Take a product from the Home > Home furnishings group priced at PLN 100 (EUR 22.92) gross, with free delivery for the customer. The group has 97 subcategories with rates from 9.83% to 15.98% gross, so we calculate both ends of the range.
The difference between subcategories in the same group is PLN 5 (EUR 1.15) net on every PLN 100 (EUR 22.92) of sales. Pet products have a single rate, 12.90% gross, which is PLN 10.49 (EUR 2.40) net per PLN 100, (EUR 22.92) leaving you PLN 70.81 (EUR 16.23) net.
If the customer pays for delivery, you calculate commission on the price including that charge, so your result will be lower by the commission on the shipping cost.
