How much does Etsy take per sale?
For a US seller, Etsy's standard fees on each order are: a 6.5% transaction fee on the item price plus shipping, payment processing of about 3% + $0.25, and a $0.20 listing fee. Together that's roughly 9.5% + $0.45 per orderbefore your product cost. If a sale comes from Etsy's Offsite Ads, add a 15% fee (12% once you pass $10,000 in annual sales) on that order.
The calculator above breaks every one of those out so you can see the real take-home, not a guess. Add your item cost and it also shows your net profit and margin — the number that actually matters.
Fees are only half of profit
Knowing Etsy's cut is step one. The bigger lever is whether your product sells at all — which comes down to choosing a researched, non-saturated niche and pricing it deliberately. If you sell print-on-demand on Etsy via Printful or Printify, pair this with the POD profit calculator (it compares Etsy against Redbubble, TeePublic, and Amazon Merch), and read the honest take in is selling on Etsy worth it and the full Etsy print on demand guide.
And before you design anything, it's worth seeing what's actually selling. That's what Trendlytic does — it surfaces what's really selling across Etsy, Redbubble, TeePublic, and Amazon Merch in one search, with a live USPTO trademark check on every keyword. $5/month for 100 searches, free trial, no card required. It does the boring research; it's not a money printer.
Frequently asked questions
How much does Etsy take per sale?
On a US sale, Etsy takes a 6.5% transaction fee (on the item price plus shipping), payment processing of about 3% + $0.25, and a $0.20 listing fee. That works out to roughly 9.5% + $0.45 per order before any product cost. If the sale came from Offsite Ads, add 15% (12% once you pass $10,000 in annual sales).
Does Etsy charge fees on shipping?
Yes. The 6.5% transaction fee applies to the total you charge the buyer — item price plus shipping (and gift wrap). So charging for shipping doesn't escape the fee; it's calculated on the full amount the buyer pays.
What is the Etsy listing fee?
$0.20 to publish a listing, which stays active for four months or until the item sells. When you sell one of several quantities, the listing auto-renews for another $0.20. This calculator includes one $0.20 listing fee per sale.
What are Etsy Offsite Ads fees?
When Etsy advertises your listing on external platforms and that ad leads to a sale, Etsy charges an Offsite Ads fee — 15% for most shops, or 12% once you've made over $10,000 in the past year. It only applies to sales attributed to those ads. Toggle it on in the calculator to see the impact.
Is this Etsy fee calculator free and accurate?
It's completely free, no login, and runs entirely in your browser. It uses Etsy's current US fee schedule (6.5% + 3% + $0.25 + $0.20, plus optional Offsite Ads). Payment-processing rates vary by country and some regions add a regulatory operating fee, so treat it as a close US estimate and confirm in your Etsy Payment account.
How do I price an Etsy item to actually profit?
Start from your floor: item cost plus the ~9.5% + $0.45 in fees. Then price above that toward a target margin and check it against comparable listings. Add your item cost in the calculator to see your real net profit and margin at any price before you list.
