Etsy Fee & Profit Calculator

Calculate your exact Etsy fees, profit, and margin instantly — with the real rates for your country, not just the US. Updated for 2026 with every fee included: listing, transaction, payment processing, regulatory, and offsite ads.

Etsy sets the payment processing fee by the location of your bank account, so the rates below change with this. Amounts are in USD.

Why every Etsy seller should know their real fees

Etsy's fees look small one at a time, but they stack. On a typical sale you pay a $0.20 listing fee, a 6.5% transaction fee on the item price and the shipping you charge, plus a payment processing fee set by the country your bank account is in — 3% + $0.25 in the US, 4% + £0.20 in the UK, 4% + €0.30 across most of the EU. Sellers in nine countries pay a Regulatory Operating fee on top; US sellers do not. Turn on Offsite Ads and another 15% can come off that same sale. Added up, Etsy usually takes somewhere around 9–11% of a typical order for a US seller and more elsewhere, plus the fixed cents — before you've paid for materials.

That is exactly where many sellers lose money: they price against the item cost alone, forget that the transaction fee also applies to shipping, and discover the real margin only after the payout lands. A few listings priced below break-even can quietly erase the profit from the ones that sell well.

This calculator does the full 2026 fee math for you. Enter your price, shipping, cost of goods and quantity, and it shows every fee line and the exact profit left per sale — so you can price on purpose instead of hoping the numbers work out.

Frequently Asked Questions

What fees does Etsy charge in 2026?
Etsy charges a $0.20 listing fee (per item quantity) and a 6.5% transaction fee on the item price plus shipping, everywhere in the world. The payment processing fee depends on where your bank account is: 3% + $0.25 in the US, 4% + £0.20 in the UK, 4% + €0.30 across most of the EU. Sellers in nine countries — Canada, France, Hungary, India, Italy, Spain, Türkiye, the UK and Vietnam — also pay a Regulatory Operating fee, between 0.05% and 1.97% depending on the country. US sellers do not pay one. If a sale comes from Etsy's Offsite Ads, an additional 15% advertising fee applies to that order — or 12% for shops that have ever passed $10,000 USD in any consecutive 365-day period — capped at $100 per order.
How much does Etsy take from a $30 sale?
For a US seller, a $30 sale with no shipping and no offsite ads costs about $3.30 in total fees: $0.20 listing + $1.95 transaction (6.5%) + $1.15 payment processing (3% + $0.25). That leaves $26.70 before your cost of goods. There is no Regulatory Operating fee in the US, so nothing is added on top. The same sale for a UK seller costs about £3.69, because UK processing is 4% + £0.20 and a 0.48% Regulatory Operating fee applies.
How is the Etsy payment processing fee calculated?
Etsy Payments charges 3% of the total order amount (item price + shipping) plus a flat $0.25 per order. For a $30 order that's $0.90 + $0.25 = $1.15. The exact percentage can vary slightly by country, so treat it as the standard US rate.
What are Etsy Offsite Ads fees, and when do they apply?
Offsite Ads promote your listings on Google, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Bing and Etsy's partner network. You only pay the fee when a buyer clicks one of those ads and then purchases from your shop within 30 days. Shops that have never made $10,000 USD in any consecutive 365-day period can opt out and pay 15% when enrolled; once a shop passes $10,000, participation is required for the lifetime of the shop, at a reduced 12%. The fee for any single order is capped at $100. This calculator applies whichever rate matches the toggle you choose.
Does this calculator include taxes or VAT?
No. This tool calculates Etsy's platform fees and your profit before any income tax, sales tax or VAT. Tax rules depend on your country and where your buyers are, so check your local requirements or an accountant for those.
How do I price my product to actually make a profit?
Work backwards rather than forwards. Adding a percentage on top of your cost does not give you that percentage as a margin, because Etsy's fees scale with the price — charge $15 for a $10 item and a US seller keeps $3.13, which is 20.8%, not 50%. Our Etsy Pricing Calculator does the maths in reverse: set the margin you want to keep and it returns the price to list at. This page answers the opposite question, where you already have a price and want to see what survives the fees.
Is this calculator accurate for 2026?
Yes — the rates above reflect Etsy's 2026 fee structure. Etsy can change its fees, so for a big pricing decision it's worth confirming against Etsy's official fees page. Taxes and country-specific processing rates are not included.
