How to use the Etsy fee calculator
Etsy's fees
From Etsy's own fee policy and help center:
| Fee | Amount |
|---|---|
| Listing | $0.20 per listing, and again after each sale |
| Transaction | 6.5% of the price plus shipping and gift wrap |
| Payment processing (US) | 3% + $0.25 of the total with shipping |
| Offsite Ads | 15%, or 12% once your shop passes $10,000 a year |
| Currency conversion | 2.5% if you list in another currency |
Payment processing depends on your shop's country: 4% + £0.20 in the UK, 4% + €0.30 in the eurozone, and 3% in Canada and Australia for domestic orders, 4% for international ones.
An example
A $25 item with $5 shipping from a US shop:
| Fee | Amount |
|---|---|
| Listing | $0.20 |
| Transaction (6.5% of $30) | $1.95 |
| Payment processing (3% + $0.25) | $1.15 |
| Total fees | $3.30 |
| You keep | $26.70 |
If the same sale comes through Offsite Ads, another $4.50 goes to Etsy and you keep $22.20.
Etsy fees on digital products
Digital downloads pay the same fees, without shipping. On a $10 download from a US shop, Etsy takes $1.40 and you keep $8.60.
How to price for Etsy's fees
Start from what you want to keep. To keep $20 from a US sale with free shipping, charge about $22.60.
The fixed parts, the listing and processing fees, weigh most on cheap items, so a low price loses a bigger share to fees than a higher one.
