US Etsy Payments, standard transaction + payment processing + listing fee. Excludes Offsite Ads (add 12–15% if applicable), sales tax, and shipping costs charged separately. Figures verified 2026-08-24.

How this table is calculated

Every row applies the same three Etsy fees: a 6.5% transaction fee on the full sale amount, a 3% + $0.25 payment processing fee (US Etsy Payments), and a flat $0.20 listing fee charged per sale. These are the same constants used across Marginory's Etsy calculators, so a number you see here will match what the Etsy Fee Calculator returns for the same price.

If your sale includes Offsite Ads (Etsy's off-platform advertising), add an additional 12–15% of the sale price — 15% while the shop remains under $10,000 in sales over the prior 365 days (and has not opted out). Once the shop qualifies for the $10,000 threshold, Etsy charges 12% on attributed orders and participation remains mandatory.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Etsy take from a $20 sale?
Etsy takes about $2.35 from a $20 sale (11.8% effective rate) — transaction fee $1.30, payment processing $0.85, listing fee $0.20. You receive $17.65 before your product and shipping costs.
Does the Etsy fee percentage change at higher price points?
The transaction and payment processing percentages stay fixed (6.5% and 3%), but the effective total rate drops slightly as price increases — because the $0.25 payment fixed fee and $0.20 listing fee matter less on larger sales. On a $5 sale, Etsy's effective rate is over 14%; on a $500 sale, it's under 9.7%.
Are these numbers exact for my sale?
These are exact for a standard US Etsy Payments sale at that price, assuming no Offsite Ads fee. If your listing sold through Offsite Ads, add 12–15% on top. For a price not shown here, use the Etsy Fee Calculator for an exact figure.
