Ricardo, Tutti or Anibis: where to sell what in Switzerland

The three platforms are not equivalent, and one of them takes up to 12 % of your sale. What each really costs, and which to pick for which item.

You have something to sell, and it's always the same three sites: Ricardo, Tutti, Anibis. They look alike, so you post on all three "just in case" — and afterwards you discover that one of them has taken a commission.

Here is the real difference, and how to choose in ten seconds.

What each one costs

On Ricardo the commission depends on the product category, with a minimum of 10 centimes and a cap of 290 francs. Since April 2026 there are discounts — up to 30 % off the commission depending on how you sell, notably through Ricardo Plus and a rebate every fifth item sold.

On a 400-franc item, Ricardo's commission is 32 to 48 francs. That is the price of a service, not a scam — but you want to know it before you set your price.

The detail almost nobody knows

Tutti and Anibis belong to the same group — Swiss Marketplace Group — and have grown very close since their joint overhaul in 2024.

Posting on both therefore doesn't really double your audience. It mostly doubles the number of listings you'll have to remember to take down the day the item sells.

How to choose

Ricardo when the item's value is uncertain or there's an enthusiast audience: camera gear, a branded bike, a watch, a collectible, computer parts. The auction format pushes prices up when several people want the same thing, and the payment framework reassures a buyer who doesn't know you. The commission is justified when it earns you more than it takes.

Tutti or Anibis — one or the other, not both — when the item is bulky, ordinary, or meant to go to someone nearby: furniture, appliances, a pram, garden tools, a full house clearance. Zero commission, direct contact, local pickup. On a 150-franc sofa that someone collects in a van, a commission makes no sense.

Both at once only if the item is worth enough to justify managing two listings. Below 100 francs, the time you spend costs more than the difference.

The real cost isn't the commission

On most items, what loses you money isn't Ricardo's 10 %: it's the listing written in three lines at 11 p.m., with no dimensions, no exact brand, and a dark photo. It sits online for three weeks, nobody writes, and you end up cutting the price by 30 %.

A 10 % commission on a fast sale earns more than a free sale that never happens.

In short

  1. Valuable item, enthusiast audience, uncertain price → Ricardo, and build the commission into your price
  2. Bulky, ordinary, collected in person → Tutti or Anibis
  3. Item under 100 francs → one platform only, the one you're already signed up to
  4. In every case, the listing matters more than the platform
