Etsy fee structure (2024)

Selling on Etsy involves multiple fees that can significantly eat into your margin. Understanding each one is essential to pricing your products profitably.

Current Etsy fees

Listing fee: USD $0.20 per item listed
Transaction fee: 6.5% of item price plus shipping charged to buyer
Payment processing: 3% + $0.25 per transaction (Etsy Payments)
Offsite Ads fee: 15% on sales driven by Etsy's external advertising (12% if over $10,000/year)

Pricing tip: The break-even price is your absolute minimum. For a sustainable business, aim for at least 30–40% profit margin after all fees and costs. Don't forget to factor in your time!
