Key points

  • Daraz says it charges no listing fee and instead deducts a commission from each order payment, with the rate depending on the product category.
  • Daraz's category commission rates are published in its Marketplace Commission Structure on Daraz University, which sellers reach from their Seller Center account, not on the public sell page.
  • Daraz's public sell page lets you start registration by sending an SMS with the word Daraz and your name to 7575, or by signing up online through Daraz Seller Center.
  • Products are added in Seller Center under Products, then Add Products, and go live after you submit the listing details.
  • Daraz's public sell page does not state a payout schedule; a Pakistani seller guide citing Daraz University's payment policy describes weekly payouts for delivered orders.

Daraz is an online marketplace that delivers to buyers across Pakistan. You can sell on it without building your own website, because Daraz brings the shoppers and handles payments and delivery. This guide explains how to register as a Daraz seller, what Daraz says about commission and fees, and how payouts work, as of 11 November 2026. It uses Daraz’s own seller pages and points out where Daraz does not publish the details.

The timing is useful. Daraz’s 11.11 sale runs until 21 November, and big campaigns like this show how much traffic the platform can send to sellers who are ready.

How does selling on Daraz work?

Daraz describes the process in three steps: register and list your products, receive orders from across Pakistan, then get paid and grow your business. You run everything from Daraz Seller Center, which has a web dashboard and a seller app. There you add products, manage orders and track your income.

Daraz says it supports sellers with shipping through its logistics network and pays order money directly into the seller’s account.

How to register as a Daraz seller, step by step

  1. Choose how to start. Daraz’s sell page gives two routes. You can send an SMS with the word “Daraz”, a space and your name to 7575, or you can sign up online through Seller Center. Daraz University, Daraz’s training site for sellers, has a sign-up tutorial.
  2. Pick your seller type. According to ProPakistani, the sign-up offers several seller types, including Local Seller, DarazMall Seller, Global Seller and Digital Goods Seller. Most individuals and small shops start as Local Sellers. DarazMall is meant for registered businesses and brands.
  3. Fill in the sign-up form. ProPakistani says this asks for a shop name, mobile number, password and business email, plus agreement to Daraz’s terms. Daraz’s public pages do not list the identity, bank or tax documents you need. Seller Center shows the full requirements during sign-up, so have your details ready before you start.
  4. Add your products. In Seller Center, go to Products, then Add Products, enter the title, description, images and price, and select Submit. Daraz University has a separate product-listing guide.
  5. Check the commission for your category before you set prices (see below).
  6. Fulfil orders. When an order comes in, pack it and hand it over for delivery through Daraz’s logistics partner.

If you plan to sell as a company rather than as an individual, our guide on how to register a company with SECP explains that process.

What does Daraz charge sellers?

As of 11 November 2026, Daraz’s public sell page says three things about cost:

  • There is no listing fee.
  • Daraz deducts a commission from the payment for each order.
  • The commission depends on the product category.

Daraz does not publish the commission percentages on that page. It tells sellers to check the Marketplace Commission Structure on Daraz University, which you reach from your Seller Center account. Pakistani seller guides also mention other deductions, such as payment and handling fees, so read the current fee list in Seller Center before you work out your margins. We have not listed rates here because we could not confirm them on a public Daraz page today.

Tip: Work out your price from your full cost: product, packaging, commission, any other Daraz deductions, returns and tax. A product that looks profitable before fees can lose money after them.

How and when do Daraz sellers get paid?

Daraz says sellers receive payment for their orders “directly in your account”. Its public page does not give a payout schedule.

Pakistan Era, which says it read Daraz University’s payment policy on 27 October 2026, reports that Daraz pays sellers weekly for orders marked as delivered. It says the statement appears in the MyIncome section of Seller Center one day after each cycle closes, and the bank transfer arrives five days after the close. If that day is a weekend or public holiday, it moves to the next working day. Refunds for returns after payment are taken from the next cycle. Check the current payment policy in Seller Center, because Daraz can change it.

Pros and cons of selling on Daraz

Pros

  • No listing fee, so it costs little to test a product.
  • Shoppers are already there, which you do not get with a new website.
  • Daraz handles payment collection and offers delivery through its logistics network.
  • Big sale campaigns such as 11.11 can bring a lot of extra traffic.
  • Free training on Daraz University.

Cons

  • Commission and other deductions cut into every sale, and the rates are only listed inside the seller account.
  • You compete on price with many sellers on the same product page.
  • You follow Daraz’s policies on listings, returns and performance.
  • You don’t own the customer relationship the way you do on your own website.
  • Payouts arrive on Daraz’s cycle, not the moment an order is placed.

Who should sell on Daraz?

Daraz makes the most sense if you are testing products, have stock but no website, or want to reach buyers outside your city without arranging delivery yourself. If you sell a strong brand with repeat customers, Daraz works best alongside your own website or social pages, not as your only channel.
