What the Etsy fee calculator shows
This Etsy fee calculator from EduFacturing is a free online tool that shows what you keep from one Etsy or eBay sale after platform fees, courier, cash on delivery and VAT. “You receive” is what the buyer pays, and “You are left with” is what actually reaches you.
With the Etsy defaults (price 25 EUR, quantity 1, no delivery and no VAT) you keep 21.54 EUR, or 86.2% of what was paid.
Fees, courier and VAT: what it works out
Works out what you keep from an order
You get the amount collected, each deduction on its own line, what is left and its percentage. Leva at 1.95583 are shown too; the break-even and target prices are in EUR only.
Loads the rates of Etsy and eBay
Etsy and eBay carry their own rates: commission, payment fee (a percentage and a fixed amount), currency conversion and a listing fee. A direct sale has no platform fees.
Adds courier, cash on delivery and VAT
Courier, cash on delivery, return receipt and insurance switch on separately. If you are VAT registered, 20/120 of the amount paid counts as VAT, and the turnover you enter is checked against the tool's threshold (51,130 EUR).
Shows what price to list
It finds the price for 1 unit at which nothing is left, and the price that leaves a target net amount for the whole order.
When you need an Etsy or eBay fee calculator
The price on the listing is not the amount in your account: fees sit in between.
Etsy and eBay sellers of printed items
With the Etsy defaults (no delivery, no VAT) a 10 EUR sale leaves 8.35 EUR (83.5%) and a 100 EUR sale leaves 87.55 EUR: the fixed 0.25 EUR payment fee and 0.20 EUR listing fee weigh more at a low price.
What price to list
Enter what you want to keep and get the price for 1 unit.
A direct sale with a courier
For a phone order or your own site, choose Direct, add the courier and, if the buyer pays on receipt, cash on delivery.
Watching the VAT threshold
If you are not registered, enter the turnover for the year: past 90% of the threshold you see how much is left, and over it you get a warning.
How the fees and your payout are calculated
The calculation is one function that runs in the browser, and every line comes out rounded to the cent.
The platform
Percentages run from the whole base, not only the item price. The payment fee also has a fixed amount per order.
Courier, cash on delivery, VAT
Insurance is a percentage with a minimum fee. VAT is taken as part of a tax-inclusive price: 20/120.
What is left, and the reverse
What is left is the base minus the deductions switched on. It grows with the price, so the price for a target sum is found by bisection.
| Applies to | Formula | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collected | C = price · quantity + delivery | delivery once per order |
| Platform | c% · C + (p% · C + F) + x% · C + L | c commission, p payment, F fixed payment fee, x conversion, L listing |
| Cash on delivery | D% · C + Df | D percentage, Df fixed extra |
| VAT | C · 20 / 120 | only if you are registered |
| Left | C − platform − courier − cash on delivery − VAT | the percentage is left / C · 100 |
Dated rates
Every deduction on its own line
You also see which one takes the most.
Dated rates, not hard-coded numbers
Etsy and eBay rates are editable fields under one visible check date, 01.08.2026; the courier fields start at 0 instead of an invented tariff.
The numbers stay with you
The numbers you type are sent nowhere.
It does not calculate income tax or subtract the cost of making the item, so what is left is not profit. It does not know the Econt and Speedy rates: choosing one only shows where its price list is. It is not accounting or legal advice.
The default rates come from public fee summaries (printify.com, help.etsy.com, taxomate.com, synder.com), searched on 01.08.2026. The Etsy figures are the US baseline; for an EU or UK profile the payment fee can differ. The eBay commission runs from 2.5% to 15% by category. VAT: the whole amount collected is treated as a price including VAT (20/120), with no OSS, reverse charge or small-business schemes.
