How Etsy Fees Are Calculated

Etsy charges multiple fees per sale. Understanding all of them is essential to setting profitable prices.

Listing Fee: $0.20 per listing (charged when listed and renewed every 4 months)
Transaction Fee: 6.5% of item price + shipping price
Payment Processing Fee: 3% + $0.25 (US) — varies by country
Offsite Ads Fee: 12–15% if a sale comes from an Etsy offsite ad
Net Profit = Sale Price − COGS − Listing Fee − Transaction Fee − Payment Processing − Offsite Ads

Offsite Ads fee is mandatory for shops earning $10,000+/year (12%) and optional for smaller shops (15%). Etsy Plus subscription is $10/month.
