Etsy Fee Breakdown (2025)

Listing Fee: $0.20 per listing (renewed every 4 months or per sale)
Transaction Fee: 6.5% of sale price + shipping charged
Payment Processing: 3% + $0.25 of total payment
Offsite Ads Fee: 12-15% if Etsy promotes your listing (only when it results in a sale)

Net Profit = Sale Price + Shipping − Materials − Actual Shipping − Listing Fee − Transaction Fee − Processing Fee

What is Etsy's transaction fee?

Etsy charges 6.5% on the total order amount including shipping. This is in addition to the $0.20 listing fee and payment processing fees.

How do I price my Etsy products to be profitable?

A common formula: Price = (Materials + Labor + Overhead) × 2 for wholesale, × 4 for retail. Always run it through this calculator to confirm your margin before listing.
