What Should Shoes Sellers Watch?
In Fashion, every shoe row is 18.5%: sneakers, boots, sandals, formal shoes, loafers and khussa for men and women. Mules, Clogs & Slippers is the exception: the parent row has no rate of its own and is rated below. The rate does not change with gender.
In Sports & Outdoors, the branch for Men and Women Shoes is 13.35%, but individual rows such as Running Shoes, Football Shoes, Walking Shoes and Sports Sneakers are 18.9%. Boys and Girls sports shoes branches are 16.25%. Read the row, not the branch.
On a Rs 3,500 pair of sneakers, 18.5% is Rs 647.50 before VAT. If the same sneakers are listed as Running Shoes in Sports & Outdoors at 18.9%, it is Rs 661.50. The point is not to hunt for a cheaper path; it is to know your real fee before you set a price and run a discount.
How Does This Compare with the Rest of the List?
Across the 7,819 rated paths on the full list (leaving out charity categories at 0% and the special digital products branch), rates run from 0.9% to 25.55% with a median of 12.8%. The most common rate here, 18.5%, is above that median, and about 86% of rated paths on the list carry a lower rate.
Shoes sit in the upper part of the list. They are well above electronics and groceries and a little below jewellery and watches. Check your own return rate alongside the fee, because the commission rate does not show it.
