Etsy fee calculator: see what you really keep.

Pick an order total and say whether the sale came from an Offsite Ad. You'll see every fee Etsy charges next to what the same order costs on a store of your own, at Etsy's and Stripe's published US rates.

The math

Etsy keeps up to a quarter of every sale.

Listing, transaction and processing fees on every order — and when the sale came through Etsy's Offsite Ads, another 15% on top. On your own store, the only cut is card processing.

Fee by fee

Every fee, side by side.

The calculator's numbers, written out. On a US order Etsy charges up to four fees; on a store of your own, the only one is card processing.

FAQ

Questions shop owners ask us.

See all questions →

Do I have to leave Etsy?

No. Many sellers keep Etsy for discovery and send repeat customers to their own store, where there's no commission. Your store becomes home base; the marketplace becomes one more channel.

Will people actually find my new store?

Launch includes technical SEO, Search Console, analytics and your first campaigns. Honest answer: a new domain takes months to earn search traffic, so we plan ads and your existing customers to bridge the gap.
