How Etsy Fees Work

Etsy Fee Breakdown

Every Etsy sale involves multiple fees. Understanding each one helps you price your items for profit.

Listing Fee — $0.20

Charged when you create or renew a listing. Listings expire after 4 months and auto-renew. Multi-quantity listings charge $0.20 per unit sold. This is the smallest fee but adds up for high-volume sellers.

Transaction Fee — 6.5%

Etsy’s main selling fee. Charged on the total order amount including the item price and shipping charged to the buyer. This is Etsy’s primary revenue source from sellers.

Payment Processing — 3% + $0.25

If you use Etsy Payments (required in most countries), this covers credit card and payment processing. Calculated on the total sale amount. Similar to what you’d pay with Stripe or PayPal.

Offsite Ads — 15% (optional)

Etsy advertises your listings on Google, Facebook, and other platforms. If a buyer clicks an ad and purchases within 30 days, a 15% fee applies (12% for sellers with $10K+ annual revenue). Sellers under $10K/year can opt out.

Total Fee Impact

Without offsite ads, expect to pay roughly 10–12% in total fees. With offsite ads on a sale, total fees can reach 25–27%. Factor these into your pricing strategy to maintain healthy margins.

Frequently asked questions

Etsy takes approximately 10–12% per sale without offsite ads. This includes: $0.20 listing fee, 6.5% transaction fee on the total (including shipping), and 3% + $0.25 payment processing fee. If offsite ads apply, add an additional 15% (or 12% for sellers with $10K+ revenue).

Yes. Etsy’s 6.5% transaction fee applies to the total order amount, which includes the item price plus shipping. If you charge $30 for an item and $5 for shipping, the 6.5% fee is calculated on the full $35.

Etsy Payments charges 3% + $0.25 per transaction. This fee covers credit card processing, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and other payment methods. The fee is calculated on the total sale amount including shipping.

Sellers making less than $10,000 per year in revenue can opt out of offsite ads. Sellers making $10,000+ annually are automatically enrolled and cannot opt out. The fee is only charged when a sale results from a buyer clicking an offsite ad — you don’t pay if the buyer found your listing directly on Etsy.
