When you use Linktree Earn features to sell products or earn commissions, there are two types of fees that may apply: transaction fees (from Linktree) and processing fees (from third party providers like Stripe). These fees are automatically calculated and deducted before any payouts are sent to you — so there’s nothing extra you need to manage.

All amounts and fee examples in this article are shown in USD.

Transaction fees are Linktree’s platform fees. They're applied when someone makes a purchase through your Linktree. These fees help us support and improve the tools that allow you to sell products, earn commissions, and more. The fee varies by your Linktree plan.

Processing fees are charged by third-party services like Stripe. These are standard industry fees applied by payment processing platforms to facilitate online transactions. Processing fees are charged regardless of your Linktree plan.

Here’s how transaction and processing fees show up across different Linktree Earn features:

When using commissioned product links in Linktree Shops, Linktree’s fee is a percentage of the commission you earn, not the total order value. Stripe charges $0.25 per payout on every plan.

The percentage Linktree takes is already factored into the commission you see in the product catalog, so you'll know what you can earn before you accept an offer.

Linktree’s fee is a percentage of the sale price and depends on your plan. Stripe's processing fee is 2.9% + $0.30 per purchase on every plan, and extra Stripe fees may apply depending on payment type (learn more on Stripe pricing).

Each fee serves a different purpose:

Linktree’s transaction fees depend on your plan, so it’s worth checking fees per pricing plan. Processing fees go to Stripe and apply on every plan though.
