How to use this Etsy fee calculator

  1. Choose whether you want to see your fees and profit for a sale, or the price you need to charge to hit a target profit.
  2. Enter the item price, quantity and the shipping you charge the buyer. Etsy's fees apply to the item price and shipping together.
  3. Enter what the item costs you and what it costs to ship it. These are not Etsy fees, but they decide your real profit.
  4. Tick the options that apply: the $0.20 listing fee, an Offsite Ads sale, or currency conversion.

How much does Etsy take from each sale?

For US sellers, Etsy charges $0.20 per listing, a 6.5% transaction fee on the item price plus shipping, and a 3% + $0.25 payment processing fee. On a $30 order that includes shipping, the fees are $0.20 + $1.95 + $1.15 = $3.30, or 11% of the order. On a $10 order the same fees are $1.40, or 14%, because the fixed amounts take a bigger share of cheap items.

How do I price Etsy items to cover fees?

Work back from the profit you want. For an order with no separate shipping charge: price = (item cost + shipping cost + desired profit + $0.45) ÷ 0.905. The 0.905 comes from 100% − 6.5% − 3%, and the $0.45 from the listing fee and the 25¢ processing fee. For an item that costs $10 to make and ship with $5 profit wanted, the price is ($10 + $5 + $0.45) ÷ 0.905 = $17.07. The second mode of the calculator does this for you, including shipping, quantity and Offsite Ads.

What are Etsy Offsite Ads fees?

If a buyer clicks an Etsy ad on another site and buys within the attribution window, Etsy charges an Offsite Ads fee on that order. Etsy charges 15% of the order, or 12% once a shop has made $10,000 or more in any 365-day period, and never more than $100 on a single order. Shops below that level can opt out, and shops above it must take part (Etsy: How Offsite Ads work). Because most orders never involve an ad, the fee is off by default here. Tick it to see the worst case: a $35 order can jump from about 11% total fees to about 26%.

Does Etsy charge fees on shipping and sales tax?

The 6.5% transaction fee applies to the item price plus shipping and gift wrap that you charge. For US sellers it does not apply to sales tax. Free shipping is not free of fees, because you have to build the cost into the price and the percentage fees apply to the higher total.

Fees that catch sellers out

Shipping is part of the fee base, so "free shipping" built into the price is charged the same percentages. The fixed charges add up to 45 cents an order, which is a lot on a $5 item and almost nothing on a $100 one, so compare fee percentages only between similar prices. A listing with several in stock renews, and is charged again, each time one sells. If your bank account is in a different currency from your shop, Etsy adds a conversion fee. Packaging, shipping labels and Etsy Ads are extra and are not in this calculator.

Fees last checked: 2026-11-11 against Etsy's Fees & Payments Policy ($0.20 listing, 6.5% transaction, 3% + $0.25 US payment processing, 2.5% currency conversion). Offsite Ads rates are from Etsy's help centre. Confirm current rates on Etsy before you price. Sales tax and VAT are not included.
