PROFIT CALCULATOR
PRICE IT
on the math
Etsy doesn't take one fee. There's the transaction fee, payment processing, listing fees, a regulatory fee depending on your country, and VAT on top of those. The calculator gathers all of it on one screen and recomputes your net margin live as you move the price.

Five country tiers with their own fees
Dimensional-weight shipping estimate
Break-even price as its own output
THE PROBLEM
A SALE PRICE IS NOT EARNINGS
A listing that sells for $50 does not earn $50. Etsy takes a transaction fee, a payment processing fee and a listing fee; in Turkey, the UK and Germany there is also a regulatory fee and VAT charged on top of those fees. Most sellers never see the total, and assume their margin is better than it is.
THE FIX
EVERY DEDUCTION ON ONE SCREEN
Enter your product cost, shipping, ad budget and discount rate; the calculator adds every Etsy line item on top and returns net profit and net margin. The donut chart shows what each item takes, so where your margin goes stops being a guess and becomes something you read.
THE DEDUCTIONS
EVERY LINE THAT ENTERS THE MATH
Rates come from Etsy's own published schedule; the ones that vary by country are modelled separately.
Transaction fee · 6.5%
Etsy's cut per sale. Identical across all five tiers.
Payment processing · 6.5% + $0.10
Etsy Payments' percentage plus its flat fee. At low prices the flat part eats a disproportionate share of the margin.
Listing · $0.20
The listing and renewal fee per item. With auto-renew on, a single sale can trigger more than one renewal.
Regulatory fee
Turkey 1.15% · UK 0.25% · Germany 0.5%. Not charged in the US and Canada tiers.
VAT on fees
Turkey 20% · UK 20% · Germany 19%. Charged on the FEES, not on the sale price.
Shipping and ads
Estimate shipping cost from package dimensions and enter an ad budget per sale — both feed straight into net profit.

HOW TO USE IT
REAL MARGIN IN THREE STEPS
01
Pick your tier
Choose the country your shop sits in; the transaction, regulatory and VAT rates are set from that tier.
02
Enter your costs
Product cost, shipping, discount and ad budget. If you don't know the shipping cost, estimate it from the package dimensions.
03
Move the price
Drag the sale price; net profit, net margin and the break-even price recompute on every change.
BREAK-EVEN
BELOW WHICH PRICE YOU LOSE MONEY
Net margin is a result; the real question is usually the inverse — "what is the least I can charge and still not lose money?" The calculator returns that as its own output, so when you plan a discount or think about matching a competitor you aren't guessing where the floor is.
- The break-even price uses every deduction and cost you entered
- The billable base is the LARGER of the real weight and the dimensional weight
- The discount comes off revenue first; fees are computed on the discounted amount
- Presets are stored in your browser — per device, not per account
COMMON QUESTIONS
Are the rates current?
They are modelled from Etsy's published schedule and live in one place in the code. When Etsy changes its schedule, both the tool and this page update from that same source; if you spot an inconsistency, tell us.
Why isn't my country listed?
There are five tiers for now: the US, Turkey, the UK, Germany and Canada. If you're somewhere else, pick the tier closest to your fee structure and read the result as approximate. We would rather be visibly incomplete than present the wrong tier as correct.
Does it cost credits?
No. The calculator is 0 credits and included on the free plan. It generates nothing; it only calculates.
Where are my presets stored?
In your browser's own storage. They stay on that device and in that browser, so you'll need to re-enter them if you switch machines.
How reliable is the shipping estimate?
It takes the larger of the dimensional weight and the real weight as the billable base, which is the rule carriers use. It is still an estimate: if you have a negotiated rate, entering it by hand gives a truer answer.
