How to keep more of each sale
- Price digital products high enough that the $0.20 listing fee and fixed processing fee are a small share.
- Build shipping into the item price carefully: the transaction fee applies to shipping too, so there is no fee saving either way.
- Set your listing currency to match your bank account currency to avoid the 2.5% conversion fee.
- If your shop is under $10k a year, you can opt out of Offsite Ads, but weigh that against the extra sales they bring.
Frequently asked questions
How much does Etsy take per sale?
For a typical US sale without Offsite Ads, Etsy takes about 9.5% plus $0.45: 6.5% transaction fee, 3% + $0.25 processing, and the $0.20 listing fee. A $20 digital sale leaves about $17.65.
Are Etsy fees different for digital products?
No. Digital downloads pay the same listing, transaction and processing fees. There is just no shipping, so fees apply only to the item price.
Does Etsy charge fees on shipping?
Yes. The 6.5% transaction fee and payment processing fee both apply to the shipping amount the buyer pays.
What is the Etsy regulatory operating fee?
An extra percentage fee for sellers based in certain countries, including the UK (0.32%), France (0.47%), Italy (0.32%), Spain (0.72%) and Canada (1.15%). It covers the cost of local digital services taxes and regulations.
Etsy fees explained: what does each fee cover?
Etsy charges a $0.20 listing fee (renewed every 4 months or when the item sells), a 6.5% transaction fee on the item price plus shipping and gift wrap, and a payment processing fee that depends on your country (in the US, 3% + $0.25). If a sale comes from Offsite Ads, a further 12% or 15% applies.
How do I price an item to hit a target profit?
Work backwards: price = (costs + target profit + fixed fees) ÷ (1 − percentage fees). With $5 costs, a $10 target, $0.45 in fixed fees and 9.5% in percentage fees, price = 15.45 ÷ 0.905 ≈ $17.07.
