What is Tmall Global's Fee Structure?
Tmall Global vs. Amazon: Understanding the Fees
Selling nutrition and supplement products on Tmall Global comes with a structured fee system that is more competitive than other major e-commerce platforms like Amazon:
Security Deposit: Tmall Global requires a refundable security deposit to ensure product quality and seller commitment. The deposit varies by store type:
- $6,900 USD for Brand Flagship Stores and Franchise Stores
- $13,800 USD for Specialty Stores
- $20,700 USD for Marketplace Flagship Stores and Industrial Marketplace Flagship Stores
This deposit is refundable, meaning that it’s not a sunk cost, which makes Tmall Global’s fee structure more reasonable compared to Amazon’s non-refundable charges.
Annual Service Fee: A $5,000 USD annual service fee covers platform services, support, and advanced features that help optimize store performance on Tmall Global.
Commission Fee: Tmall Global charges a 3% commission on all sales of healthcare products, including dietary nutritional supplements, which is 12% cheaper than Amazon’s 15% commission for similar products. This significant savings can boost your overall profitability on the platform.
Alipay Transaction Fee: Like other e-commerce platforms, Tmall Global charges a 1% transaction fee for payments processed via Alipay, ensuring secure and efficient transactions.
