The rules
Etsy fees in 2026, in plain words
- Listing fee: $0.20 for each item you list, whether or not it sells. Listings expire after four months, and renewing one costs another $0.20.
- Transaction fee: 6.5% of the price you show plus what you charge for shipping and gift wrapping. For US sellers it isn’t charged on sales tax.
- Payment processing (Etsy Payments, US bank account): 3% + $0.25, on the total of the sale, tax and shipping included.
- Offsite Ads: when a buyer clicks one of Etsy’s ads for your listing elsewhere and orders from your shop within 30 days, you pay 15% of the order (item, shipping and gift wrap), or 12% once your shop has made $10,000 in sales over the last 365 days. It’s never more than $100 on one order. Under $10,000, you can opt out.
- Opening a shop may cost a one-time set-up fee, shown when you set up.
