See exactly what Etsy keeps
Etsy takes several separate fees out of every single sale, and the combined total is remarkably easy to underestimate when you are setting your prices. This calculator works out exactly what Etsy takes, the listing fee, the transaction fee and the payment processing fee, so you know your genuine profit on an item before you ever commit to a selling price rather than being surprised afterwards.
Why the fees add up
Etsy charges a small fixed listing fee to put an item up, a percentage transaction fee on the sale price when it sells, and a payment processing fee on the total collected, and while each of these is modest on its own, together they take a meaningful slice out of every sale. This bites hardest on low-priced items, where the fixed fees weigh far more heavily as a proportion of the sale. Pricing your products without properly accounting for all of these fees means your real margin is smaller than you think, sometimes dramatically so. Seeing the total fee and your resulting net is what lets you price to an actual profit rather than to a misleading headline sale amount.

Frequently Asked Questions
What fees does Etsy charge?
A listing fee, a transaction fee on the sale price, and a payment processing fee. Together they take a meaningful slice of each sale.
Why do the fees matter more on cheap items?
Because the fixed fees, like the listing fee, are a larger proportion of a low sale price, so they eat more of the margin on inexpensive items.
How does this help pricing?
By showing your net after all fees, so you can price to a real profit rather than being surprised by how little a sale leaves you.
Does it include shipping?
It focuses on the Etsy fees; account for your shipping cost and any shipping fees separately when working out full profit.
