Etsy Fee Calculator

Enter the item price, transaction fee, payment fee, and fixed fees to find your net earnings.

How it is calculated

The tool adds the two percentage fees and one fixed amount, then subtracts them from the price: fee = price × (transaction% + payment%) / 100 + fixed, net = price − fee, effective % = fee / price × 100. Price and fixed fees are in dollars. The percentages are applied to the item price only, so shipping you charge the buyer is not included; if your platform charges on shipping too, add it to the price. Use the fixed field for every flat charge per sale, such as a per-order processing amount or a listing fee, added together. Your cost of goods, postage you pay and taxes are not subtracted, so net here means net of marketplace fees only. Price must be above zero and no entry can be negative.

Worked example

An item sells for 40. Transaction fee 6.5% and payment fee 3% make 9.5% of 40 = $3.80. Add fixed fees of 0.45 and the total fee is $4.25. Net = 40 − 4.25 = $35.75. The effective fee rate is 4.25 / 40 × 100 = 10.63%, which is higher than the 9.5% headline because the fixed amount weighs more on a small sale.

Common mistakes

  • Typing the percentages as decimals (0.065). Both fee fields are percentages, so 6.5% is 6.5.
  • Leaving the fixed fees at zero. Flat per-order or listing charges matter most on cheap items and raise the effective rate noticeably.
  • Forgetting that the percentages are applied to the item price here, not to price plus shipping. If your marketplace charges on shipping as well, include it in the price you enter.
  • Treating net as profit. Materials, labour, postage you pay, advertising and income tax still come out after this figure.
  • Using last year's rates. Fee percentages are set by the marketplace and can change, so check the current figures in your seller settings.

About this calculator

Etsy charges sellers three separate fees on every sale. There is a small flat listing fee (charged when an item is listed or renewed, roughly every four months or upon sale), a transaction fee taken as a percentage of the item price plus the shipping you charge, and a payment processing fee — a percentage of the total plus a small fixed amount per order, similar to a card-processor fee — deducted when the buyer pays through Etsy Payments. Rates differ slightly by country, since payment processing is priced per currency and banking region.

Because all three fees come out before the seller ever sees the money, many Etsy shop owners underprice their listings without realizing how much is subtracted. This calculator applies the transaction percentage and the payment percentage to the price you enter, adds one combined fixed-fees amount (enter the listing fee and the fixed per-order payment fee together), and subtracts the total from the price so you can see your true net earnings per sale. To include shipping, enter the item price plus the shipping you charge — useful for pricing decisions, cost-plus markup, and comparing Etsy's take against other marketplaces.
