A veteran Poshmark sellers advice: The Ins and outs of how Poshmark Canada shipping works.
Selling to Canadians is super easy! You need to have a printer so that you can print your Canada Post/Poshmark shipping label. Shipping is $12.99cad for packages up to 5lbs. You can certainly go over this weight if you are selling a bundle to someone, but then you need to select an ‘upgrade’ shipping label from Poshmark and pay the difference. You can also offer your shoppers free shipping and just cover the shipping yourself, but otherwise the buyer pays the shipping. Shipping takes one to seven business days.
How Do I Get Paid?
Once you’ve made a sale, the buyer has to ‘accept’ their purchase within 3 days of recieving it. There are no returns on poshmark but the buyer has 3 days to accept their purchase once it’s been delivered. The buyer cannot reject a sale based on not liking an item. They can only reject an item if it’s not as described, incorrect or missing, undesclosed damage or not authentic. Once they accept their purchase, your funds are available to you for direct deposit, or a mailed cheque.
What Are The Fees?
Poshmark takes 20% off your sale right off the top as their commission. This seems a bit high but if you think about it, eBay is around 15% already and Poshmark has negotiated a better shipping rate through Canada Post and provides you with a really streamlined shipping process.There are also other advantages to selling on Poshmark over eBay which makes that extra five percent fee worth it. For one, you are able to easily promote your listings to targeted audiences.

Can Canadians Buy and Sell From The US Platform?
No. As a Canadian you can view US sales items but you cannot purchase using your Canadian address. If you have a US address you can have items shipped to you can now ship items to your US address as a Canadian. Previously the site was geoblocked to Canadians.
You can’t sell your merchandise to US buyers on the Canadian app. All your items are in CAD and your items ship using Canada Post flat rate with pre printed shipping labels.
Can I have One Closet For Both US and Canada?
Nope! Through trial and error I’ve found that you need to have a separate account for your Canadian closet and your US closet. You can view US and Canada items on either closet by toggling the Canada/US flag at the bottom of the page (or top left on the app), but for buying and selling purposes you need to have a separate account for each country. As I mentioned above, the US platform used to be geoblocked to Canadians so you couldn’t even open an account unless you where in the US. Now you can.

My review about Poshmark Canada
I sell on Poshmark because I really love fashion and I often find amazing pieces that are not my size but I know that item would makes someone really happy. As a blogger, I also buy a lot of clothing retail and I’m happy when I can sell a once loved item in order to fund a new purchase. I love curating a store and imagining I’m a buyer for a boutique like Aritzia.
What About Luxury Goods?
Poshmark has an authentication service for items over $700. Currently Poshmark has an offer for Canadians for free shipping on items over $700. How this works is the item gets first shipped to Poshmark HQ where they authenticate the item, and then once authenticated it gets shipped out to the customer. If the item is not authentic, it’s covered under PoshProtect and the customer gets a full refund.
