Fees don't just come from one place: 6.5% transaction, payment processing, listing fees — and the 12–15% Offsite Ads fee that quietly erases entire margins. Paste one order below and see where the money actually goes.

Healthy. Now watch what one ad click does…

| Same Etsy + processing fees | −$3.30 |
| Offsite Ads fee (15%) | −$4.50 |
| Your profit | $9.20 (30.7%) |
One fee took a third of your margin. Sellers on Reddit call this "profit wiped out by a single sale" — now you can see it before it happens.

Rates reflect Etsy's published fee schedule as of September 2026: 6.5% transaction fee (applied to item + shipping − discount), $0.20 listing fee, Offsite Ads at 15% (under $10k trailing revenue) or 12% (over $10k). Always confirm on Etsy's official fee page — and if something changed, tell us and we'll fix it same day.
Because Etsy charges 6.5% on the total order amount including shipping and gift wrap. Most sellers budget for 6.5% of the item price and get burned on the shipping portion — the calculator includes it so there are no surprises.
Processing fees vary by country (e.g., 4% + £0.20 in the UK). Pick your country in the dropdown or choose Custom to enter your exact rate — you'll find it in Shop Manager → Finances → Payment processing.
No. The calculator runs entirely in your browser — nothing you type (prices, costs, margins) is sent to any server, ever. The single thing we ever store is your email address, and only if you choose to join the Pro waitlist. Even Pro is designed the same way: your Etsy CSV is parsed locally in your browser.
