How Etsy fees work for 3D printed items

Etsy charges three types of fees: a listing fee per item (£0.16 UK / $0.20 US), a 6.5% transaction fee on the sale price including shipping, and payment processing (3.25% + fixed amount). The listing renews when the item sells. All fees are deducted from your payout — price accordingly so your profit remains after Etsy takes its cut.

How to price 3D prints on Etsy profitably

Start with your true cost (material, electricity, packaging, time). Apply a markup of 200–300%. Use this calculator to find the exact list price that delivers that margin after Etsy fees. Consider offering free shipping and folding the cost into the item price, or charge shipping separately — both work as long as fees are accounted for.

FAQ

What percentage does Etsy take?

Etsy charges 6.5% transaction fee on the item price plus shipping, plus 3.25% + fixed fee for payment processing, and a listing fee per item (£0.16 UK / $0.20 US). In total, expect roughly 10–15% of your sale price to go to fees.

Does Etsy charge fees on shipping?

Yes. The 6.5% transaction fee applies to the total amount the buyer pays, including shipping. The payment processing fee also applies to the full total. So if you charge for shipping, fees are calculated on item + shipping.

What is a good profit margin for Etsy 3D prints?

Most sellers aim for 200–300% markup on cost (so 3–4× your cost). That covers materials, time, fees and leaves a healthy profit. Use this calculator to check your margin after Etsy fees.

How do I calculate my Etsy selling price?

Start with your total cost (materials, electricity, packaging, your time). Apply your target markup (e.g. 200%). Then add Etsy fees on top — our calculator shows the exact list price to achieve your target margin after fees.

Are Etsy fees worth it for 3D printing sellers?

Etsy brings traffic and trust. For many makers, the 10–15% in fees is worth the exposure. Factor fees into your pricing from the start so your profit margin stays healthy after Etsy takes its cut.
