What is Transaction Fee?

After an order is successfully delivered to buyers, TikTok Shop will automatically deduct a fee from the final payout settlement. This amount is the Transaction Fee, and is charged to all sellers for processing successful orders in TikTok Shop.
The Transaction Fee Rate is as follows:
Time
Amount
For orders created before 00:00, 17th July, 2024, Vietnam time (GMT+7)4% of total customer payment, after refund.
For orders created from 00:00, 17th July, 2024, Vietnam time (GMT+7)5% of total customer payment, after refund.
Important: the Transaction Fee rate is inclusive of VN taxes. If you are a tax registered organisation in Vietnam and your Tax Code has been provided to and verified by TikTok, we will only collect the amount exclusive of taxes. Learn more here.
