Trendyol Commission Structure: The Essential Guide

Trendyol is Turkey's largest e-commerce platform with over 30 million active buyers. For Turkish dropshippers, understanding Trendyol's commission structure is non-negotiable — the rates range from 8% to 26.6% and the difference directly impacts whether a product is viable.

How Trendyol Calculates Commission

Trendyol charges commission as a percentage of the gross sale price (including VAT). The rate is determined by the product category, not the seller tier. All sellers — including dropshippers — pay the same category rate.

The VAT Layer

Trendyol's commission is applied to the VAT-inclusive price. Turkish standard VAT is 20% for most goods. This means on a 100 TRY sale, the commission base is 100 TRY (not 83.33 TRY). This is a critical detail that causes margin miscalculations if you model it incorrectly.
