The middle half of e-commerce order specialists in Tulsa earns $39,410–$46,120. Pay is tightly grouped: the top tenth starts at $49,300, only 1.5 times the bottom tenth, against 1.8 times across the US, so the going rate is easier to read. The mean ($43,250) is no higher than the median, so few high earners skew the figures here.

90th percentile$49,300$4,108$23.70$63,613

Local pay is bunched just above the median: the 75th percentile is only $20 over it, while the 25th sits $6,690 below. Moving an offer from the median to the 75th percentile costs about $26 more a year with benefits. These percentiles describe what people in the job earn locally, not experience levels, so place your offer by the tasks and seniority you need.

For scale, the US median of $46,170 falls between the 75th and 90th percentiles in Tulsa, and the Oklahoma statewide median of $45,850 falls between the 25th percentile and the median. An offer at the national rate would beat what three quarters of local e-commerce order specialists earn.
