Example Etsy profit calculation
Suppose you sell an item for $25.00 and charge $4.99 for shipping. Your total revenue is $29.99.
If your product costs $7.50, shipping costs $4.20 and packaging costs $0.80, the calculator subtracts those costs plus estimated Etsy fees to show your estimated net profit.
This helps you see whether your item price is high enough before you publish a listing.

What is a good profit margin for Etsy?
There is no single good margin for every Etsy shop. Handmade products, digital downloads, print-on-demand items and vintage products can have very different cost structures. The important thing is to calculate your real costs before listing the item.
Why does the suggested price change?
The suggested price changes when you edit your costs, fees or target profit margin. It estimates the item price needed to reach your selected margin based on the current assumptions.
