Earnings are estimates from published sources. Difficulty is our rating: needs some basic skills, setup or patience.
The basics
What it is and how it works
List styled photos of fashion items, sell via the app, ship to buyers. UK sellers: no selling fee historically after 2024 changes, but payment processing and buyer marketplace fees still apply — check current fee page.
Where the money comes from
How the model works
- You list unused stuff
- A buyer pays through the platform
- You get paid in person or via the app
Honest numbers
What you could realistically earn
Varies by item desirability. Better for on-trend/vintage pieces than plain high-street basics. No fixed monthly rate.
No reliable monthly figure is published for Depop. What you make depends on what you have and how much you put in, so we don't show a scenario chart.
