How it works
Etsy charges a $0.20 listing fee, a 6.5% transaction fee on item price plus shipping, and US payment processing of 3% + $0.25 on the order total.
Because the fee depends on the price, the calculator searches for the lowest price where price minus Etsy fees equals your target.
Example

|---|---|
| $20 | $23.13 |
| $50 | $56.28 |
| $100 | $111.52 |
Shipping charged to buyer is $5. This calculator adds the $0.20 listing fee to every sale. Optional Offsite Ads cost 12% or 15% of an attributed sale and are not included. Sales tax is also part of Etsy's processing fee base but is not modeled here.
