Etsy Payments processing fee for handling the transaction through their payment system.
Only charged when a sale comes from an Etsy offsite ad. 15% for most sellers, 12% for $10K+/year sellers.
Etsy charges a $0.20 listing fee, 6.5% transaction fee on the total sale (including shipping), 3% + $0.25 payment processing fee, and a 0.3% regulatory operating fee. If a sale comes through offsite ads, there's an additional 15% fee (12% for high-volume sellers making $10,000+/year).
If your shop made less than $10,000 in the past 12 months, you can opt out of offsite ads. If you earned $10,000 or more, you're required to participate but get a reduced rate of 12% instead of 15%.
Yes, Etsy's 6.5% transaction fee and 3% + $0.25 payment processing fee are calculated on the total order amount, which includes shipping charges. This is why some sellers build shipping costs into their item price and offer "free shipping."
Most successful Etsy sellers aim for a 30-50% profit margin after all fees and costs. Digital products typically have higher margins (60-80%) since there are no materials or shipping costs. If your margin is below 20%, consider raising prices or reducing material costs.
While you can't change Etsy's fee percentages, you can optimize your profitability by: pricing items to maintain healthy margins, offering free shipping built into the price (Etsy favors this in search), growing to $10K+/year to reduce offsite ads from 15% to 12%, and driving your own traffic through Pinterest to reduce dependence on Etsy ads.
