Etsy Fee Calculator

Which fees does the tool include?

The figures built into this tool are a $0.20 listing fee per sale, a 6.5% transaction fee on item price plus shipping charged, a 3% + $0.25 payment processing fee on the same total, an optional offsite ads fee, and Etsy Plus at $10 a month spread over your monthly sales. Etsy changes its fees, so check the marketplace’s current fee page before relying on a result.

How is the offsite ads fee applied?

If you choose either enrolled option, the tool charges 12% (mandatory) or 15% (optional) of the item price on this sale, as though the order came through an offsite ad. In practice only ad-driven orders carry the fee, so the figure is a worst case. Choosing the not-enrolled option leaves it out.

How is Etsy Plus handled?

The $10 monthly subscription is divided by your units per month and added to each sale. At 40 sales it adds 0.25 per sale. The tool does not credit anything you receive with the subscription, so the cost is shown without any offsetting benefit.

Does the currency selection convert anything?

No. It only changes the symbol shown in the report. The fixed amounts of 0.20 and 0.25 stay the same numbers in every currency, so a £ report uses £0.20 and £0.25, which may not match the amounts your shop is actually charged.

What do the net profit and margin lines include?

Net profit is buyer total (price + shipping charged) minus Etsy fees, product cost and your actual shipping cost. Margin is that profit divided by the buyer total. With a $29.99 price, $5 shipping, $8 cost and $4.50 postage the profit is $18.72 at 53.5%. Sales tax, VAT and currency conversion charges are not subtracted.

How is the price for a 25% margin worked out?

The report solves for the item price at which net profit equals 25% of the buyer total, using your costs, shipping charged, the fee rates above and any offsite or Plus charges you selected. For the $29.99 example that comes to about $14.77, and for the £45 offsite example about £40.56. If your shipping charge already covers the target, the report says so instead of showing a price.

What happens with blank fields?

A blank price stops the calculation with a message. Blank cost and shipping fields count as zero. A blank or zero units field defaults to 50, which affects the monthly figures and the Etsy Plus split but not the per-sale fees.
