TikTok Shop Philippines Fee Structure
Unlike the US where fees are bundled into a single rate, TikTok Shop Philippines uses a three-part fee structure:
- Commission — category-based, 3–10% depending on product type
- Transaction Fee — 2.24% applied to the total order value (including shipping)
- Order Processing Fee — ₱3 per order
TikTok Shop Philippines operates as a marketplace model (not a mall model), so there's no FBT fulfillment or storage fees. Shipping costs are passed through separately.
Commission Rates by Category
Commission rates vary by product category. Here are the current rates for marketplace sellers:
| Category | Commission Rate | Transaction Fee | Effective Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Electronics | 4.0% | 2.24% | 6.24% |
| Beauty & Personal Care | 6.0% | 2.24% | 8.24% |
| Home & Living | 6.0% | 2.24% | 8.24% |
| Most Categories (General) | 6.0% | 2.24% | 8.24% |
| Fashion & Apparel | 6.0% | 2.24% | 8.24% |
| Health & Wellness | 3.0% | 2.24% | 5.24% |
| Food & Beverage | 10.0% | 2.24% | 12.24% |
Key Insight: Health & Wellness at 3% commission is the lowest category rate. Food & Beverage at 10% is the highest. All categories share the same 2.24% transaction fee and ₱3 per-order fee.

This is an excellent window to test product-market fit, establish your store presence, and build reviews before committing to full commission rates.

Mall Seller Rates
TikTok Shop Philippines also offers Mall status for established brands and authorized distributors. Mall sellers pay slightly higher commission rates: 7% general (vs 6% marketplace), with other categories increasing proportionally. The 2.24% transaction fee and ₱3 order processing fee remain the same.
Philippines vs Other Markets
With an effective rate of roughly 8.24% + ₱3 for most categories (and as low as 5.24% + ₱3 for Health & Wellness), TikTok Shop Philippines is one of the more affordable markets in Southeast Asia. Compare this to Vietnam where total fees can exceed 11.5%, or Malaysia at roughly 8.82% + RM0.54.
Combined with the 90-day new seller promo and a large, young, mobile-first consumer base, the Philippines is an increasingly compelling market for TikTok Shop sellers.
