How much does Etsy take from a $25 sale?

Etsy sellers quick answer.

Estimate Etsy fees on a $25 sale before product cost, shipping policy, or Offsite Ads change the payout.

Short answer

The quick math

On a $25 Etsy item with no buyer-paid shipping and no Offsite Ads, the calculator estimates about $2.83 in Etsy and payment-processing fees before product cost. That leaves about $22.17 before materials, packaging, shipping you pay, and taxes.

Assumptions used

  • $25 item price
  • $0 buyer-paid shipping
  • 6.5% Etsy transaction fee
  • $0.20 listing or auto-renew fee
  • 3% + $0.25 editable US payment-processing assumption
  • No Offsite Ads fee

Use it before you decide

  1. Use the calculator once with shipping at $0 and once with the shipping charge included.
  2. Turn on Offsite Ads only if the order is likely to be attributed to that program.
  3. Subtract materials and packaging after the platform fees so the result reflects real profit.
