How much does Etsy take?
Etsy take is a stack, not one percent. Listing fee, transaction fee on the order total, payment processing, and optional Offsite Ads if they apply. This page answers the question with a live stack. Processing varies by country - confirm in Etsy.
Estimate only — not your seller payout.
When to use — and when not to
When to use
Pricing a new listing; explaining fees to a co-maker; how much does etsy take search.
When not to
Need reverse list price → etsy-price-calculator. Need profit after materials → etsy-profit-calculator.
Assumptions
Listing + txn % + processing defaults from rates JSON; Offsite Ads optional; shipping in order total when charged.
Worked examples
$30 item + $5 shipping
Stack listing, txn, processing on $35 order
Same with 12% Offsite Ads
Offsite adds a clear fee line
How it calculates
order = item + shipping + gift_wrap fees = listing + txn + processing(+ offsite) payout ≈ order − fees
Stack the fee lines, then read payout (and profit when costs are entered).
- Enter the sale price and any buyer-paid shipping that applies.
- Confirm or override the rate defaults for your case.
- Add ads, storage, or costs only when they apply.
- Read the fee stack - estimate only, not the marketplace payout screen.
Common traps
- Listing fee is per listing, not only per sale in real life - model the sold path here.
- Processing country matters.
- Offsite Ads can dominate thin crafts.
