Formula
Calculate expected revenue without the boost as your sale probability times item price minus any base listing fee. Calculate expected revenue with the boost as the higher sale probability times item price minus the listing fee minus the boost cost. The difference is the boost net benefit. Boost ROI divides net benefit by boost cost. Break-even probability lift equals boost cost divided by item price.
Russia FAQs
When does an Avito XL listing pay off in 2026?
A 200 RUB XL listing on a 5,000 RUB item needs only a 4 percentage-point lift in sale probability to break even. Realistic XL lifts are 10-25 pp depending on category, so the boost typically pays off massively for items above 3,000 RUB. For items under 1,500 RUB, even a 200 RUB XL listing requires a 13 pp lift to break even, which is harder to justify.
How much do Avito Premium listings cost?
Avito Premium listings (top-3 lock for 7 days) cost 500-1,500 RUB depending on category. Premium pays off only for high-value items above 25,000 RUB where the sustained visibility delivers 20-40 pp probability lift. For mid-priced items 5,000-25,000 RUB, XL listing or Top-list refresh usually delivers better ROI.
What sale probability should I assume without a boost?
Look at your last 5-10 Avito listings in the same category. The share that sold within a similar timeframe is your honest baseline. Category averages: in-demand used phones and electronics 60-80% within 30 days; popular furniture 40-60%; niche musical instruments 20-40%; saturated categories like baby clothes 30-50%. Personal category and condition matter more than headline averages.
When should I never buy an Avito boost?
Three signals say skip the boost: your item is already in a high-demand low-supply category, the boost cost exceeds 5% of the item price, or your historical conversion in this category is already above 70% within 14 days. For items under 1,500 RUB, paid boosts almost never pay off; rely on free listing and patience instead.
Does Avito charge a separate listing fee in 2026?
Personal categories (electronics, clothing, household sold by individuals) are mostly free for the first listing. Business categories (auto dealer, real estate, professional services) charge 25-150 RUB per listing. Multiple listings of the same item type may incur duplicate-listing fees of 50-100 RUB. The calculator includes a base listing fee input to capture this when relevant.
How do I know my honest probability lift from a boost?
Run an A/B test on similar items. Boost half, leave half free, and track sales over 30 days. If 8 out of 10 boosted items sell vs 4 out of 10 free, your honest lift is 40 pp. Most sellers overestimate their lift in the calculator and end up overpaying for boosts. If you cannot articulate a number, the calculator is essentially useless and the safe default is to skip the boost.
