Overview

How it works
The calculator adds the item price and shipping charged to find the order total. It then estimates the listing fee, Etsy transaction fee, payment processing fee, and any offsite ads fee. After that, it subtracts those fees along with your product cost and shipping cost to estimate net profit. Profit margin is shown as net profit divided by the order total.
