What's my real profit?

Pop in the numbers for a single Etsy sale — not your yearly totals — and we'll show every Etsy fee, your net profit, margin and a rough UK tax set-aside estimate.

Offsite Ads (Etsy sellers only) What's this?

What do these boxes mean?

Item / material cost

What this one item cost you. If you buy things to resell, it's the price you paid for the item. If you make things, it's the materials that went into it — fabric, clay, yarn, components, and so on. Don't include your own time: for both this calculation and HMRC's, your labour doesn't count as a cost.

Other costs

Anything else this one sale cost you that isn't covered above — packaging and wrapping, labels, a fair share of any Etsy Ads spend, or extras like gift boxes. Because this calculator works on a single sale, enter this sale's share only, not your yearly totals.

Offsite Ads

Etsy advertises listings on Google, Facebook, Instagram and similar sites. If a buyer clicks one of those ads and buys from your shop within 30 days, Etsy charges an Offsite Ads fee on that order: 15% if your shop has made under $10,000 in the past 365 days (you can opt out at this level), or a discounted 12% once your shop passes $10,000 (participation then becomes compulsory). Etsy caps the fee at $100 per order. Tick the box only if this particular sale came from an offsite ad.
