How it's calculated

Sale        = items − discount + shipping
Transaction = 6.5% × sale
Processing  = 3% × (sale + tax) + $0.25
Listing     = $0.20 × items sold
Profit      = sale − fees − your costs

US rates shown. Picking another country switches the processing rate and adds its regulatory operating fee.

How Etsy fees work

Etsy charges a few separate fees on each sale. Most are a percentage, but they apply to different parts of the order, which is why a simple "Etsy takes X%" never quite matches your statement. This calculator applies each fee to the base that Etsy's own policies name. Fees checked October 23, 2026, against the Fees & Payments Policy (last updated October 5, 2026) and the Etsy Payments Policy (last updated July 31, 2026).

1. Listing fee: $0.20 per item

Every listing costs $0.20 USD and lasts four months. When an item sells and the listing auto-renews, or a buyer takes more than one, Etsy charges another $0.20 for each one. So each item sold carries one $0.20 listing fee. Sellers outside the US pay the same $0.20, converted to their own currency.

2. Transaction fee: 6.5%

Etsy takes 6.5% of the item price plus what you charge for shipping and gift wrap. Personalization charges count as part of the item price. US sales tax is not included. If you run a sale or coupon, the fee is a percentage of the discounted order, so it shrinks with the price.

3. Payment processing: 3% + $0.25 in the US

Etsy Payments charges a percentage of the whole order, including shipping and tax, plus a flat fee per order. In the US it is 3% + $0.25. The UK is 4% + £0.20, most euro countries 4% + €0.30, and Canada, Australia and New Zealand charge 3% on domestic orders and 4% on international ones. Pick your country above to use its rate.

4. Regulatory operating fee (some countries)

Sellers in Canada (0.50%), France (1.14%), Hungary (1.97%), Italy (0.80%), Spain (0.88%), the UK (0.48%), India (0.05%), Türkiye (1.67%) and Vietnam (1.24%) pay an extra percentage of the item price plus shipping and gift wrap. US sellers do not pay it.

5. Offsite Ads and currency conversion (only sometimes)

If the sale came from an Offsite Ad, Etsy charges 15% of the order total, or 12% once your shop has sold $10,000 in the past 365 days, capped at $100 USD per order. If you list in a different currency from your bank account, Etsy adds a 2.5% currency conversion fee. Both are off by default here.

6. Your profit and the price to charge

Profit is what Etsy deposits minus your own costs: materials, packaging and the label you buy. To find a price, the calculator works backward. Every percentage fee grows with the price, so it divides your costs and target profit by what is left after the fees, then takes off the shipping you charge.

Worked example

A US seller sells one item for $25.00 and charges $5.00 shipping, so the sale is $30.00. Materials cost $6.00, packaging $1.00 and the label $4.50.

Worked example fees and profit
Listing fee	$0.20
Transaction fee: 6.5% of $30.00	$1.95
Processing: 3% of $30.00 + $0.25	$1.15
Total Etsy fees (11.0% of the sale)	$3.30
Etsy deposits	$26.70
Less your costs	−$11.50
Profit (50.7% margin)	$15.20

If the same order came through an Offsite Ad at 15%, Etsy would add $4.50, total fees would be $7.80 (26.0%), and profit would drop to $10.70. To clear $10.00 per item without the ad, the item could sell for as little as $19.25; below $8.20 it loses money.

What this does not include

Etsy Ads, the one-time shop set-up fee, Etsy Plus, shipping label insurance and deposit fees are not tied to one sale, so they are left out. VAT on seller fees, where it applies outside the US, is not included either. Your income tax is a separate cost too. Over a year these add up, which is why a sales log beats a one-off check.

FAQ

Common questions

How much does Etsy take from a sale?

For a US seller, 9.5% of the order plus $0.45 in flat fees: the 6.5% transaction fee on the item price plus shipping, 3% + $0.25 for payment processing, and $0.20 for the listing. On the $30.00 example order on this page, Etsy keeps $3.30, or 11.0%. Cheap items lose a bigger share to the flat fees. If the sale came from an Offsite Ad, add 12% or 15% more.

Does Etsy charge fees on shipping?

Yes. The 6.5% transaction fee applies to what you charge for shipping and gift wrap as well as the item price. Payment processing also applies to shipping, and to any sales tax on the order. Your own cost for the shipping label is not an Etsy fee, but it comes out of your profit.

What are Etsy Offsite Ads fees?

If Etsy advertises your listing on another site and a buyer clicks and orders from your shop within 30 days, you pay an advertising fee on that order. It is 15% for shops under $10,000 in sales over the past 365 days and 12% after that. The fee is capped at $100 USD per order. Shops under $10,000 can opt out; shops over it cannot.

How do I price my items on Etsy to make a profit?

Add up what one order costs you: materials, packaging and the shipping label. Pick the profit you want per item. Then work backward, because Etsy takes a percentage of the price you set. The target price box in this calculator does that math, so the fees come out of the price and your profit stays what you asked for.

What is the Etsy regulatory operating fee?

An extra fee Etsy charges sellers in some countries to cover the cost of local regulations. It is a percentage of the item price plus shipping and gift wrap: 0.50% in Canada, 0.48% in the UK, 1.14% in France, 0.80% in Italy, 0.88% in Spain and 1.97% in Hungary, among others. US sellers do not pay it.
