Costs: who pays for Vinted shipping?
The buyer pays for shipping when they buy the label at checkout. Vinted does not publish a price list; buyers see the total shipping cost at checkout. The price depends on the parcel size and where the parcel is sent from and to.
Postage.ie does not show Vinted shipping prices, because Vinted does not publish them and they can change. Check the price in the Vinted app at checkout.
Vinted buyer total estimate
Vinted says its buyer-paid fee is usually 5% + €0.70. Vinted says the total Vinted fee includes VAT. Vinted says the calculation of the fee varies based on several factors, such as item characteristics, order value and order type (a single item versus a bundle).

The buyer chooses the carrier
Vinted Ireland lists four integrated carriers: An Post, Drop2Shop, DPD and DHL Express. The buyer buys the label at checkout, and the seller must send with that Vinted-generated label. Vinted says a different label or the wrong shipping option cancels the order automatically, and the carrier can't be changed after purchase.
- Check the carrier on the order before you pack
- To change carrier, the order has to be cancelled and placed again
- Follow the label and drop-off instructions in your own order
Printer or no printer
DPD is the only carrier that always needs a label printed at home. An Post at a post office accepts a digital label shown to staff, Drop2Shop staff print the label from your QR code, and DHL Express courier pick-up takes a digital label. If you can't print a label, Vinted suggests getting it at the drop-off point if possible, asking a friend, library or office, or cancelling the order.
- An Post post office: digital label or printed label
- An Post PostPoint: printed label only
- Drop2Shop: QR code, staff print
- DPD: printed at home
France, Belgium and Luxembourg, but not the UK
An Post, DPD and DHL Express all cover Ireland to France. DPD is the only Vinted Ireland carrier that also lists Belgium and Luxembourg. Drop2Shop is for parcels within Ireland. The UK is not one of the countries connected with Vinted Ireland, so there is no Vinted shipping from Ireland to the UK.
- France: An Post, DPD or DHL Express
- Belgium and Luxembourg: DPD
- United Kingdom: no Vinted carrier
- Vinted says bulky orders aren't available between Ireland and France
Seller compensation if a parcel is lost or damaged
Vinted compensates the seller only when the Vinted label was used, the item was packed properly and the carrier confirms the loss or damage. The caps differ by carrier, and Vinted says investigations can take several weeks.
- An Post within Ireland: up to €350 if damaged, €50 if lost
- An Post international: up to €50 if damaged, €15 if lost
- DPD: up to €16
- DHL Express: up to €15
- Drop2Shop: up to €15, lost or damaged
Choose which carriers you offer
Sellers can turn carriers on or off in Profile, Settings, Postage. Vinted says some carriers can't be turned off. If you have no printer, think about whether to offer DPD, because its label must be printed at home.
- Profile > Settings > Postage
- Some carriers can't be disabled
- Set them before a sale, because the carrier can't change after checkout
