How Etsy fees work in 2026

Etsy charges several small fees rather than one big one. Together they usually come to 10–11% of the order for US sellers, or up to about 25% on a sale that came through an Offsite Ad.

  • Listing fee: $0.20 per listing (renews every 4 months or after a sale).
  • Transaction fee: 6.5% of the item price + shipping + gift wrap.
  • Payment processing (US): 3% + $0.25 of the total, including tax.
  • Offsite Ads: 15% or 12% of attributed orders, max $100.

Worked example

You sell a handmade necklace for $50 plus $5 shipping. The buyer pays 8% sales tax, the label costs you $4.50 and materials cost $12.

Etsy fees FAQ

How much does Etsy take from a sale in 2026?+

For US sellers, Etsy charges a $0.20 listing fee, a 6.5% transaction fee on the item price and shipping, and 3% + $0.25 payment processing on the total including tax. On a $50 item with $5 shipping and 8% tax that is about $5.81, or 10.6% of the sale.

Does Etsy charge fees on shipping?+

Yes. The 6.5% transaction fee covers the shipping price you charge, and the processing fee is charged on the full order total including shipping and sales tax.

How do Etsy Offsite Ads fees work?+

If a buyer clicks one of Etsy’s ads on another site and buys within 30 days, Etsy charges 15% of the order (12% once your shop has made $10,000 in a year), capped at $100 per order. Shops under $10,000 can opt out; above that it is mandatory.

When is the Etsy listing fee charged?+

The $0.20 is charged when you publish a listing, and again when it auto-renews every four months or after each sale of a multi-quantity listing. The calculator counts one listing fee per sale.

  • US sellers with a US bank account. Other countries have different processing rates, and some have a regulatory operating fee.
  • The $0.20 listing fee is charged when you list (and again after each sale of a multi-quantity listing).
  • Currency conversion (2.5%) applies only if you list in a currency other than your bank’s.
