## When to use

You are pricing handmade or vintage goods for sale on Etsy and want an itemized payout and profit margin estimate.

## Inputs

- **itemPrice:** Sale price of the item before shipping or taxes.
- **shippingCharged:** Postage amount billed to the customer.
- **quantity:** Number of units in the transaction.
- **countryPreset:** US ($0.20 listing, 6.5% transaction, 3%+$0.25 processing), UK, EU, Canada, or Australia.
- **offsiteAdsPercent:** Optional Etsy Offsite Ads fee (0%, 15% standard, or 12% high-volume).
- **itemCost, actualShippingCost, packagingCost:** Optional seller production costs for net profit analysis.

## Outputs

- **grossOrderTotal:** Total revenue (item price * quantity + shipping charged).
- **listingFee:** Fixed listing charge ($0.20 per unit sold).
- **transactionFee:** 6.5% of total order revenue (item + shipping).
- **processingFee:** Payment processing fee (e.g. 3.0% + $0.25 in the US).
- **totalEtsyFees:** Sum of all Etsy marketplace fees.
- **netPayout:** Amount deposited into the seller bank account (revenue - fees).
- **netProfit:** Final profit after seller production, postage, and packaging costs.
- **profitMarginPercent:** Net profit as a percentage of gross revenue.

## Steps

1. Calculate gross order revenue = (itemPrice * quantity) + shippingCharged.
2. Calculate listing fee = listingFeeFixed * quantity.
3. Calculate transaction fee = grossOrderTotal * (transactionFeePercent / 100).
4. Calculate payment processing fee = grossOrderTotal * (paymentProcessingPercent / 100) + paymentProcessingFixed.
5. Calculate optional offsite ads fee = grossOrderTotal * (offsiteAdsPercent / 100) and regulatory fee.
6. Total Etsy fees = listing + transaction + processing + offsiteAds + regulatory. Net payout = grossOrderTotal - totalEtsyFees.
7. Net profit = netPayout - (itemCost * quantity + actualShippingCost + packagingCost). Profit margin = (netProfit / grossOrderTotal) * 100.
8. Round currency amounts to nearest cent. Estimate only.

## FAQs

### 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.
