Etsy fees in 2026
Every Etsy sale carries three fees, and some orders carry more. The calculator applies each of these to your order.
- Listing fee: $0.20 USD per listing, charged again for each item when a listing with more than one in stock sells.
- Transaction fee: 6.5% of the item price plus the shipping and gift wrap you charge.
- Payment processing fee: a percentage of the full amount the buyer pays plus a fixed fee. In the US it is 3% plus $0.25. Elsewhere it depends on where your bank account is.
- Offsite Ads fee: 15% of the order, or 12% for shops with over $10,000 in yearly sales, only on orders that came from Etsy's ads on other websites. Capped at $100 per order.
- Regulatory operating fee: a small percentage of item price plus shipping for sellers in a few countries, from 0.05% in India to 1.97% in Hungary.
- Currency conversion fee: 2.5% when you list in a different currency from your payment account.
Optional costs such as Etsy Ads, Etsy Plus and shipping labels bought on Etsy are not fees on the sale, so enter labels under your costs.
Example: a $25 item with $5 shipping
A US shop sells one $25 item and charges $5 for shipping, so the order total is $30.
If the item costs $6 to make and the label and packaging cost $4.50, the profit is $16.20, a 54% margin. If the same order came through Offsite Ads at 15%, another $4.50 comes off and the profit drops to $11.70.
Etsy fees by country
The payment processing fee and the regulatory operating fee depend on the country of your bank account. These are the main markets. The calculator's country list covers every country Etsy pays out to.
| Bank account | Payment processing | Regulatory fee |
|---|---|---|
| United States | 3% + $0.25 | none |
| Canada | 3% + CA$0.25 (4% international) | 0.50% |
| United Kingdom | 4% + £0.20 | 0.48% |
| Australia | 3% + A$0.25 (4% international) | none |
| New Zealand | 3% + NZ$0.30 (4% international) | none |
| Germany, Netherlands and most of the EU | 4% + €0.30 | none |
| France | 4% + €0.30 | 1.14% |
| Italy | 4% + €0.30 | 0.80% |
| Spain | 4% + €0.30 | 0.88% |
| Hungary | 4% + €0.30 | 1.97% |
| Sweden | 4% + 3.00 SEK | none |
| Switzerland | 4% + 0.50 CHF | none |
| India | 5% + ₹25 | 0.05% |
| Mexico | 4.5% + 8.00 MXN | none |
| Türkiye | 6.5% + 14.00 TRY | 1.67% |
| Japan | 6% + $0.30 | none |
A few countries also have a deposit fee when a payout is small, for example 42 TRY in Türkiye on deposits under 600 TRY, or 40 MXN in Mexico on deposits under 2,000 MXN. It is charged per deposit, not per order, so the calculator leaves it out.

Pricing so fees don't eat your profit
- Price from the profit you want. Enter it under Pricing goal and the calculator gives the item price that covers your costs and every fee.
- Count shipping as part of the sale. Etsy charges fees on shipping too, so free shipping built into the price costs the same in fees.
- Leave room for Offsite Ads. If your shop takes part, a share of orders will carry an extra 15% or 12%. Check that those orders still make money.
- Watch small orders. The fixed fees weigh more on cheap items. A $3 item pays the same $0.45 in fixed fees as a $300 one.
