Does Facebook Marketplace charge selling fees?

Only for shipped items. Facebook Marketplace charges 5% per shipment (or $0.40 for items under $8). Local pickup sales remain completely free.

Why are local pickup sales free on Facebook Marketplace?

Local pickup transactions are cash-based or handled outside Facebook's payment system — Facebook cannot process or charge for these transactions.

For shipped items using Marketplace checkout, Facebook releases payment within 5–7 business days after the item is marked as delivered.
