How it works

Etsy's fee stack catches many sellers by surprise: a 6.5 percent transaction fee on the item price plus shipping, a $0.20 listing fee per listing, and 3 percent plus $0.25 payment processing on the order total. On a $30 sale that is several dollars gone before you have paid for materials, packaging or your time. Sellers who price by gut feel often discover their margin was imaginary.

Enter your sale price, item cost and shipping numbers to see a full fee breakdown, your net profit and your margin percentage. The calculator applies each fee to the correct base, including the fact that Etsy charges its transaction and processing fees on the shipping amount too. Use it before you price a new product, not after you wonder where the money went.

Smart Etsy pricing bakes the fees in from the start. Many sellers work backward from a target margin rather than adding a markup to costs and hoping. Remember that Etsy favors listings with free US shipping over $35 in search, so a lot of sellers roll shipping into the item price. And watch out for Offsite Ads: if Etsy promotes your listing through Google or social ads, an additional 12 to 15 percent fee applies to that sale.

These are estimates based on Etsy's published US fee schedule. Offsite Ads fees, regulatory fees and currency conversion are not included, so confirm current fees on Etsy before finalizing prices.

Frequently asked questions

How much does Etsy take from a sale?

Roughly 9.5 percent plus about $0.45 per order: 6.5 percent transaction fee, 3 percent plus $0.25 payment processing, and a $0.20 listing fee. Offsite Ads can add another 12 to 15 percent if your listing sold through one.

Does Etsy charge fees on shipping?

Yes. The 6.5 percent transaction fee and 3 percent payment processing fee both apply to the shipping amount you charge the buyer.

Is this calculator exact?

It is a close estimate for standard US orders. Offsite Ads fees, sales tax handling and international orders can change the real numbers.

What are Etsy Offsite Ads fees?

When Etsy advertises your listing on Google, Facebook or Instagram and it sells, Etsy takes an extra 12 percent, or 15 percent if your shop made under $10,000 in the last year. You cannot opt out once you pass that threshold.

How should I price for profit on Etsy?

Work backward from a target margin instead of marking up costs and hoping. Total your materials, labor, packaging and shipping, add Etsy's roughly 10 percent fee load, then add your profit. If the price looks uncompetitive, cut costs before you cut margin.
