    1

    Create Your Vinted Account

    ~19s
    Download the Vinted app from the App Store or Google Play, or visit vinted.com. Sign up with your email address or through a Google or Facebook account. Choose a username that represents you or your style, and add a profile photo. To receive payouts, connect your bank account in the wallet settings before your first sale.
    2

    Photograph and List Your Items

    ~33s
    Tap the "Sell" button and upload at least three to five photos of the item — front, back, close-up of the label or brand logo, and any flaws. Write a title that includes the brand and size, then fill in the item details: category, size, color, and condition (New with Tags, Like New, Good, Satisfactory). Set your price — Vinted will show you a suggested range based on similar listings to help you decide.

    Quick Tip

    Quick Tip: Items listed in "Like New" or "New with Tags" condition sell faster and at higher prices. Inspect each item carefully and choose the most accurate condition label.

    3

    Understand the Buyer Fee Structure

    ~24s
    When a buyer purchases your item, Vinted adds a buyer protection fee of roughly 5 percent plus a fixed amount to the buyer's total. This is separate from what you receive — you still get your full asking price. The buyer sees the total cost (item price plus the Vinted fee) before completing the purchase. This transparency helps buyers make informed decisions and eliminates friction between you and the buyer over fees.

    Ship With the Prepaid Label

    ~32s
    When an item sells, Vinted sends both you and the buyer a notification. Check the app for the prepaid shipping label. Print it, pack your item securely, and drop it at the carrier location shown on the label — this varies by item size (USPS, FedEx, or UPS). Ship within the required timeframe shown in the app, and enter the tracking information once you have dropped the package off.

    Warning

    Package your items carefully. Items damaged in transit due to poor packaging are not automatically covered by Vinted's protection. Use appropriate boxes or padded envelopes for delicate or valuable items.

    5

    Receive Your Payment

    ~27s
    Vinted holds your earnings in your Vinted wallet until the buyer confirms the item arrived in the described condition, or until the confirmation window closes automatically (typically five days after delivery). Once released, transfer your balance to your bank account from the wallet section of your profile. Transfers to a linked bank account are free.

    Quick Tip

    Quick Tip: Respond to buyer questions quickly. Vinted's algorithm shows responsive sellers more prominently in search results, which increases the chance of your items being seen and purchased.

    Vinted is a European resale platform that has grown significantly in the United States. Its defining feature is that sellers pay zero fees to list or sell items. Instead, buyers pay a small service fee on each purchase, which covers the platform's costs. This means that when a seller lists a sweater for $30, they receive the full $30 — a different model from Poshmark (which charges sellers 20 percent) or Mercari (which charges 10 percent).

    For sellers, this is a meaningful advantage. You keep everything you earn, which makes Vinted particularly attractive for selling lower-priced items where fees on other platforms would eat significantly into your return.

    Vinted covers clothing for all genders and ages, shoes, bags, accessories, and some home and beauty items. Like other resale apps, selling requires you to photograph your items, write descriptions, and set prices. Vinted provides suggested prices based on similar listings, which can be helpful if you are not sure where to start.

    The platform generates a prepaid shipping label when a sale is made, so shipping is handled the same way as Poshmark — you pack the item, print the label, and drop it at the carrier. Sellers receive payment after the buyer confirms delivery or after a set number of days if the buyer does not respond.

    Vinted also has a "Bump" feature, which is a paid promotion option. Paying to "Bump" a listing gives it higher visibility in search results for a set period. This is optional and not necessary for regular selling, but it can be useful if you have a higher-value item that is not moving.

    If you have clothes to sell and want to keep the maximum amount from each sale, Vinted's zero-fee model is worth taking seriously. It is one of the few platforms where the seller's earnings are genuinely not shared with the platform.
