Etsy Pricing Calculator FAQs

How much should I charge on Etsy?

To make a profit and grow your Etsy business, you'll need to make sure that you are charging enough to cover your costs of making the product, plus an additional amount to cover Etsy fees, postage and your time. Any amount left over after these costs have been removed is your profit.

What markup should use for my Etsy products?

Markup is essentially the amount added to your production cost price to arrive at a price. It is a commonly used technique to add a consistent profit margin to your product prices. Your ideal markup will depend on the types of products you sell, however as a general rule you will want to aim for no lower than a 50% markup for Etsy.

How do I calculate my material cost?

First, make a list of every material that you have used up to produce the item - let's call this your "recipe". For each item in your recipe, calculate your unit price for each: this can be calculated using a rolling average calculation on your purchase history for the material and converting to a suitable unit of measurement (e.g pounds to ounces). Don't forget to include hidden costs like shipping and taxes paid. Finally, calculate how much you used up and multiply this by your manufacturing unit price.

What should I charge for labor?

One of the biggest pricing mistakes Etsy sellers make is that they completely ignore their own labour costs. Being self-employed, it's easy to undervalue or completely ignore the time you put in to your business. Learn more about how to calculate your handmade labor costs »

How much does Etsy charge to sell my products?

Etsy charges $0.20 for each listing - think of this as an "advertising fee" to show your products to the world. When you sell something on Etsy, they will then charge you 6.5% of the amount collected - it is important to note that this includes shipping or gift wrapping charged to the customer. The listing fee is renewed each time your product sells, so if you sell 3 of your products you'll pay $0.60 (3 x $0.20). If the sale was processed through Etsy's Direct Checkout, you'll then also pay 3% of this amount, and an additional $0.25 fee. Our Etsy Fee Calculator will calculate all of the above fees and show you the profit margins you are making.
