Calculation method

Buyer-paid revenue equals item price plus shipping charged. Variable fees apply to that revenue in this simplified US example. Deduct product cost, postage, fixed fees and variable selling fees. Break-even and target item prices are solved algebraically, subtracting buyer-paid shipping from the total revenue requirement.

Worked example

At a $30 listing price and $5 charged for shipping, buyer-paid revenue is $35. With a $12.55 product cost, $4.50 postage, and 9.5% variable fees plus $0.45 fixed fees, estimated profit is $14.18, or about 40.5% of revenue.

Common questions

Are Etsy seller fees the same worldwide?

No. Etsy Payments processing rates and fixed charges depend on bank country; certain sellers also face regulatory operating fees, tax, or currency-conversion charges.

Does Etsy charge a fee on shipping?

The 6.5% transaction fee applies to shipping charged to the buyer, in addition to the listing price. Payment processing also commonly includes shipping in its fee base.

When should I add Offsite Ads?

Add 12% or 15% only for sales subject to the corresponding Offsite Ads fee, and verify eligibility and applicable limits on Etsy.

Why is net margin lower than markup?

Net margin divides profit by total revenue after costs and fees; markup compares an increase in price with a cost base. They measure different things.
