Why the fixed fee hits low-price items hardest
| Sale price | Payment fee (3% + $0.25) | Fee as % of sale |
|---|---|---|
| $3.99 | $0.37 | 9.3% |
| $9.99 | $0.55 | 5.5% |
| $24.99 | $1.00 | 4.0% |
| $49.99 | $1.75 | 3.5% |
| $99.99 | $3.25 | 3.25% |
This is why digital sellers (SVGs, printables, low-cost stickers) often set minimum bundle prices around $5–8 — below that, the fixed fee eats a disproportionate share of revenue.
Payment processing vs. currency conversion fee
The payment processing fee is separate from the 2.5% currency conversion fee, which only applies if you list in a currency different from your Etsy Payments deposit currency. A seller in the Eurozone listing in USD would pay both the standard processing fee and the conversion fee.
