How Fulfilled by TikTok prices a unit
The FBT rate card says the fulfillment fee covers pick, pack, packaging and last-mile delivery, and that it is charged on each unit. It is separate from the referral fee, which uses the customer payment, platform discount and any shipping the customer pays, minus tax. TikTok Shop fees explained walks through that percentage.
Starting June 16, 2025, FBT products default to free shipping for the shopper, with no $30 minimum. You still pay the fulfillment charge. Opt out, and a shopper pays $5.99 shipping on an order under $30. TikTok pays you $0.75 per unit when the shopper pays that shipping. Sample orders and replacements do not qualify for the $0.75.
Two or more units from the same seller, fulfilled by FBT in one checkout, use the 2-unit, 3-unit, or 4-or-more rate. A single unit uses the 1-unit rate. TikTok posts the charge in Seller Center when the order is delivered and deducts it from revenue. You can see that charge on a statement exported from Seller Center.
What counts as the weight
On the logistics fee table, chargeable weight is the greater of the scale weight and length times width times height, in inches, divided by 166. Dimensional weight applies only above 1 lb. Starting May 1, 2026, if a unit weighs 2 lb or less and its box is 332 cubic inches or less, TikTok uses the scale weight.
A food container in that table weighs 15 oz and measures 15 by 10 by 4 inches, so its dimensional weight is 3.61 lb. One unit in the 3-4 lb band costs $6.92.
Storage is free for the first 60 days after the inventory arrives. After that, the same logistics table charges $0.03 per cubic foot per day for inventory aged 61 to 90 days. The order line here leaves out storage, inbound placement, returns, SIOC discounts, creator commission and ads. Stock sent straight to an FBT fulfillment center skips the hub placement fee when you follow TikTok's routing rules. When the warehouse count and the count you shipped disagree, TikTok bills that on its own, separate from this fulfillment fee.
TikTok's own examples
The shirt in TikTok's walkthrough weighs 9 oz in a 13 by 10 by 1 inch box. The box is small enough that TikTok uses the 9 oz scale weight, in the 8-12 oz band. One unit is $4.70.
Enter 5.00 for your own label and packing if you want those two numbers side by side. That 5.00 is a placeholder you chose. If your shipping and packing cost is $5.00, Fulfilled by TikTok is $0.30 lower on this example.
Three rechargeable robot toys, each weighing 7.36 oz in a 9 by 7 by 2 inch box, fall in the 4-8 oz band. Three units are $2.36 each, $7.08 for the order.
Your label against that fee
Dispatch time, delivery complaints and how to choose a path are covered in Fulfilled by TikTok vs self-fulfillment. Sellers compare this fulfillment fee with what they already pay for a label and packing. They disagree about how many orders a month it takes before shipping it yourself costs less.
My take
I would start with the weight on this page. I would ship the order myself when my label is cheaper and I can answer delivery complaints, and I would use Fulfilled by TikTok when I want TikTok to handle those complaints and the fee is close to my label.
Add the referral fee, creator commission and ad spend in the fee and profit calculator. Enter the fulfillment total in the field for your shipping and packing cost.
The 2026 per-unit grid
Each cell is the charge for one unit at that weight and that unit count. TikTok's rate card lists more fulfillment fee changes. This grid is the logistics table, and if Seller Center shows a newer card, use that. Weights above 6 lb and below 9 lb, and above 10 lb and below 20 lb, have no cell on that logistics table. For those weights, use the row on TikTok's logistics page. Confirm in Seller Center that a heavy unit is eligible. TikTok's logistics overview and its rate card set different size limits.
| Weight | 1 unit | 2 units | 3 units | 4 or more |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 oz or less | $4.28 | $2.52 | $1.91 | $1.56 |
