How Etsy fees work in 2026

Etsy layers three mandatory fees on every sale. First, the $0.20 listing fee — charged when you list, and again each time a multi-quantity listing renews after a sale. Second, the 6.5% transaction fee, calculated on the entire order: item price, shipping, gift wrap, and personalization. Third, the payment processing fee — 3% + $0.25 for US sellers — also assessed on the full order total.

Together those mandatory fees work out to roughly 9.5% + $0.45 on a typical order, and the fixed portions hit low-priced items hardest. Offsite Ads can add a lot more: if a sale comes through one of Etsy’s external ads, you pay 15% — or 12% if you’ve sold over $10,000 in the past year, at which point the program is mandatory.

Etsy fee FAQs

How much does Etsy take per sale?

Etsy charges a $0.20 listing fee, a 6.5% transaction fee on the total order (including shipping), and a payment processing fee of 3% + $0.25 for US sellers. On a $30 item with $5 shipping, mandatory fees come to about $3.78.

Does the Etsy transaction fee apply to shipping?

Yes. The 6.5% transaction fee is calculated on the item price plus shipping, gift wrapping, and personalization charges. Building shipping into your item price doesn’t change the fee total.

What are Etsy Offsite Ads fees?

If a buyer clicks one of Etsy’s ads on Google, Facebook, Instagram, or Pinterest and buys from your shop within 30 days, you pay 15% of the order (12% if you’ve made over $10,000 in the past 365 days — and at that level, you can’t opt out).

Are Etsy fees refunded if I refund the buyer?

Payment processing fees are credited proportionally when you refund through Etsy Payments. The listing fee is non-refundable.
