Amazon takes a cut of every sale.
The referral fee is a percentage of the total sale price, charged the moment an item sells. Most categories are 15 percent, but some run lower (electronics at 8 percent) or higher (jewelry at 20 percent), and a few are tiered by price.
The $0.30 floor
Amazon charges the greater of your category percentage or a $0.30 minimum per item, which matters most on low-priced products.
It is not your only fee
Referral fee is separate from FBA fulfillment, storage, and your product cost. Run the full picture in the FBA profit calculator.
How much is the Amazon referral fee?

Is the referral fee charged on the whole price?
Yes, it applies to the total amount the buyer pays for the item (and often shipping), not your profit.
What is the minimum referral fee?
$0.30 per item in most categories, so very low-priced products pay proportionally more.
