How to use this Etsy profit calculator

This page opens on Price for a profit. The sample asks for $10 left over, with an item cost of $6, shipping charged at $4.50, and shipping you pay at $3.50, for one item on US rates. Charge $17.54. You keep $10.00, a 45.4% margin.

  1. Enter the profit you want for the order, or switch to This sale and type the price you already charge.
  2. Add the item cost and both shipping numbers. Free shipping still has a label cost.
  3. Pick your bank country so the payment processing rate is the one Etsy charges you.
  4. Use the break-even line as the floor, and the big price as the list price that hits your goal.

What “you keep” means

You keep what the buyer pays for the item and shipping, minus Etsy’s fees, minus your item cost, minus what you pay to ship. The margin is that profit divided by what the buyer pays. It is not a markup on the item cost, and it does not pay you for your time.

The break-even price is the lowest list price where profit is at least zero with the costs and fee options you entered. The calculator rounds up to the next cent. Price for a profit does the same search aimed at the amount you typed. A percent discount stays on, so the list price is higher than what the buyer pays.

Fees that come out of the profit

Every result already removes the US$0.20 listing fee per unit, the 6.5% transaction fee on the item and the shipping you charge, and the payment processing rate for your bank country. A regulatory operating fee is added for the United Kingdom, Canada, France, Italy, Spain, and Hungary. Offsite Ads and the 2.5% currency conversion fee stay off until you open More options.

Denmark and Sweden are in the EU but use a different flat fee, so they are not under Euro area. Etsy also charges a regulatory operating fee in India (0.05%), Türkiye (1.67%), Vietnam (1.24%). Those three countries are not in the menu.

There is no universal good margin. Compare the figure with the time the order takes. If 15% Offsite Ads turns the sale into a loss, price the item so it still works when that fee applies, or keep Offsite Ads off while the shop is under the US$10,000 threshold.

FAQ

How do I calculate profit on an Etsy sale?

Subtract Etsy’s fees, the item cost, and what you pay to ship from what the buyer pays for the item and shipping. The summary is that result. The margin is the profit divided by what the buyer pays, not by your item cost.

What does the break-even price mean?

It is the lowest list price where you keep at least zero after the fees and costs you entered. The calculator rounds that price up to the next cent so rounding on the fees does not leave you a cent short.

How does price for a profit work?

Type the profit you want for the whole order. The page finds the lowest list price that leaves at least that much after Etsy fees, your item cost, and the shipping you pay. A percent discount stays on, so the list price is higher than what the buyer pays.

Does the margin include my time?

No. The margin is money left after fees, materials, and shipping. It does not price your hours. Decide separately what you need to earn for the time the order takes.

Should I include shipping in an Etsy profit calculation?

Yes. Shipping you charge is money the buyer pays, and Etsy fees apply to it. What you pay to ship is your cost. If you offer free shipping, leave the charge at 0 and still enter the label cost.

What happens to profit if Offsite Ads applies?

Open More options and choose 15% or 12%. The summary updates to the profit after that fee. A shop under US$10,000 in the past 365 days can opt out. At US$10,000 the 12% fee is required, and it is capped at US$100 per order.

Can I use this with a sale or a coupon?

Yes. Set Discount to a percent or an amount you fund. Fees are calculated on what the buyer pays, not on the original price. A promotion that Etsy funds can be treated differently on the order, so check your payment account when that happens.
