Etsy fee calculator example

$45 handmade craft with $5 shipping

A $45 item with $5 shipping produces $50 gross order revenue. Etsy deducts a $0.20 listing fee, $3.25 transaction fee (6.5%), and $1.75 payment processing (3% + $0.25 US), yielding $44.80 net seller payout.

Etsy fee calculator how-to

  1. Pick the country preset that matches your Etsy Payments account (UK uses GBP listing, processing, and the regulatory operating fee).
  2. Enter item price, shipping charged to the buyer, and quantity.
  3. Add what the item, postage, and packaging actually cost you if you want profit, not just payout.
  4. Turn on Offsite Ads only if that programme applied to the order.

Why Etsy fee calculator matters

Etsy takes a listing fee, 6.5% of the whole order (including shipping you charged), payment processing, and, for many UK shops, a small regulatory operating fee. Offsite Ads, if they attributed the sale, take another 12% or 15%.

Because the 6.5% applies to postage charged, inflating shipping to hide the item price still costs transaction fee. Keeping a UK pack inside Large Letter often saves more than shaving 50p off the listing fee.

Compare that stack with Vinted, where the seller keeps the listed price and the buyer pays protection. Use both calculators on the same item before you choose a channel.

Fee stack

Gross = itemPrice × quantity + shippingCharged. Listing = listingFeeFixed × quantity. Transaction = gross × 6.5%. Processing = gross × processing% + fixed (UK: 4% + £0.20). Regulatory (UK) = gross × 0.32%. Offsite ads = gross × 12% or 15% when enabled. Payout = gross − all Etsy lines. Profit = payout − itemCost − actualShipping − packaging.

Etsy fee calculator limitations

Presets track commonly published Etsy Payments rates and can lag a policy change. Currency conversion, VAT on fees, and pattern-disruption ads are out of scope. Estimate only.

Etsy fee calculator FAQ

Does this calculator upload my shop sales data or pricing?
No. All fee calculations and profit margins are computed client-side in your browser. Plaintools has no analytics, accounts, or databases; your financial figures never leave your device.
What are the standard Etsy seller fees in 2026?
Etsy standard fees include: a fixed listing fee of $0.20 USD per item (renewed every 4 months or when sold), a transaction fee of 6.5% on the total order value (item price + shipping charged + gift wrap), and an Etsy Payments processing fee (typically 3% + $0.25 in the US, 4% + £0.20 in the UK).
Does Etsy charge transaction fees on shipping costs?
Yes. Etsy calculates its 6.5% transaction fee on the full order amount billed to the buyer, which includes the item price, shipping fees charged, and gift wrapping charges.
What are Etsy Offsite Ads fees?
When Etsy advertises your products on Google, Facebook, Instagram, or Pinterest and a buyer purchases within 30 days of clicking an ad, Etsy charges an Offsite Ads fee: 15% for sellers making under $10,000 USD/year (optional), or 12% for sellers exceeding $10,000/year (mandatory).
How do I calculate Etsy seller fees without this page?
Gross order revenue = (itemPrice * quantity) + shippingCharged. Listing fee = $0.20 * quantity. Transaction fee = grossOrderTotal * 0.065. Payment processing fee = grossOrderTotal * 0.03 + $0.25 (US). If offsite ads apply, add grossOrderTotal * 0.15 (or 0.12). Sum all fee items to get Total Etsy Fees. Net Payout = grossOrderTotal - Total Etsy Fees. Net Profit = Net Payout - (itemCost * quantity + actualShippingCost + packagingCost). Round each line item to 2 decimal places.
How do shipping costs and parcel packaging affect Etsy profit margins?
Because Etsy levies a 6.5% transaction fee on the full gross order amount including shipping charged, higher shipping costs directly increase fees paid to Etsy. For UK and European sellers, keeping packaging slim enough to qualify for Large Letter rather than Small Parcel can reduce carrier postage and seller expenses, protecting net margins on lower-priced items.
What is the difference between domestic and international payment processing fees on Etsy?
Etsy Payments processing fees vary by country of seller account. In the United States, standard processing is 3% + $0.25 USD; in the United Kingdom, it is 4% + £0.20 GBP; in Canada, 3% to 4% + $0.25 CAD; in Australia, 3% to 4% + $0.25 AUD; and in most Eurozone nations, 4% + €0.30 EUR. Cross-border orders may also incur a currency conversion fee (typically 2.5%) if listing in a currency different from your payment account.
