For LHS members, people often wonder what their profits will be and if they’re setting their prices correctly.

Sellers need to take into account their products’ base cost and shipping as well as any fees associated with the selling platform. Etsy, especially, includes several fees and commissions that sellers need to consider when pricing their products.

To help you keep track of these costs so you can optimize your profits, one of my assistants created this super useful LHS Etsy Profit Calculator.

The calculator is totally free to use. All you have to do is enter your email address below and you’ll receive the instant download.

*Please note the Etsy Profit Calculator has been updated as of 10/19/23 to reflect the comments and concerns of users. You can now download the updated version.

How to use the Etsy Profit Calculator

Using the calculator is very straightforward. Plus, directions are included on the spreadsheet. All you have to do is adjust the orange areas of the spreadsheet (do not try to change the grey areas).

Just input the following information about your products:

  • base cost
  • base shipping cost

Then, the calculator will tell you…

  • the base cost and base shipping cost total
  • Etsy’s payment fees ($.25)
  • Etsy’s payment commission (3%)
  • Etsy’s commission (5%)
  • the total amount of Etsy’s fees and commissions

Next, input…

  • the price you want to charge for your product
  • the price you want to charge for your product’s shipping

And the calculator will tally…

  • the total amount that customers will pay
  • your profit
  • your profit margin percentage

The Etsy Profit Calculator is super simple to use. But in case you have any trouble, my assistant made a quick walkthrough, which you can check out below:

I hope you find this calculator helpful! I’d love to hear your thoughts on it. Just leave a comment below. And if you enjoyed this post, please share it with your friends and followers!

  1. This is the third day I’ve tried to access the Etsy Profit Calculator.
    I’m on an incognito page rght now. as a last resort, I’m reaching out.
    I’m a LHS Mastermind member so c’mon help me out here please.
    and why am i typing in all caps? idk, not angry just frustrated.
    i’ve got a to-do list a mile long.

  2. MIGHT CONSIDER “FREEZING” THE TOP SECTION OF THE SPREADSHEET (@ ROW 6) SO IT’S ALWAYS ON TOP & WE WON’T HAVE TO KEEP SCROLLING UP TO SEE WHAT COLUMN WE ARE IN.

  3. Hi.

    This doesn’t seem to include the 7% platform fee that gearbubble add to the item cost. I’m not sure why they don’t just add it to the item cost, but i am finding it all rather confusing, to be honest!

    this is still a very helpful tool, though!

    Thanks
    Joy

  4. I DID THE DOWNLOAD A COUPLE TIMES WITH THE SAME RESULT. iT SEEMS THE CALCULATOR PART OF THE PDF ISN’T COMING THROUGH, IT SHOWS AS (function(d){var s=d.createElement(‘script’);s.type=’text/javascript’;s.src=’https://a.omappapi.com/app/js/api.mi
    n.js’;s.async=true;s.dataset.campaign=’jha1yejzxcksduznlwah’;s.dataset.user=’32145′;d.getElementsByTagN
    ame(‘head’)[0].appendChild(s);})(document);
    iT SHOWS AS A 3 PAGE DOCUMENT, WITH YOUR BLOG POST AND THE SCRIPT ABOVE IN THE MIDDLE. i TRIED 2 DIFFERENT BROWSERS, SAME RESULT

      1. JUST TRIED YOUR SUGGESTION ON 3 DIFFERENT BROWSERS, PLUS MY PHONE, ALWAY THE SAME RESULT. tHANKS FOR TRYING.

  5. Thanks Rachel :) You will save yourself some trouble if you add a message “you must turn off ad-blocking to access the opt-in form” I use brave browser, and did not see the opt-in form until I turned off the ad-blocking. If you put that somewhere in large letters (LOL) you might have fewer people asking about it. – (Theresa mentioned it, but people don’t seem to see it in the comments)

    1. Yes, I agree .. thank you liz! I also use brave browser and I searched the page many times for the space to enter my email to get the download… finally I looked further and read your comment! thank you xo

  6. I know you’ve already done some revisions, which are great – but how about a ‘date listed’ column from which renewal fees could be calculated. i’m into etsy for the long haul, and sometimes my listings renew several times before they sell. thanks for posting this!

    1. Hey James, If you opt-in above where it says “Get my download,” you’ll receive the calculator. Thanks!

  7. Once again, there is no opt-in form except for the main email opt in at the top right. That sure doesn’t do anything since I’m already subscribed. I’ve tried three browsers for this. no opt in form ever shows.
    this isn’t the first time I’ve pointed this out, as have others here and previously. There’s something screwed up in the way you are trying to include an opt in form.
    Why does this comment box only show capital letters?

    1. Hey Steve, The opt-in form is showing up for me. I’m using Chrome. I’m really not sure why you’re unable to see it, our apologies for the inconvenience! But the opt-in form is there and in working order. Perhaps try accessing it using a different device or clearing your cache. And please let us know if you continue to have issues. Thanks!

    2. sTEVE, iF YOU HAVE AN AD BLOCKER WORKING ON YOUR BROWSER INTERACTIVE THINGS SUCH AS DOWNLOADS MAY NOT SHOW UP. tURN YOUR BLOCKER OFF FOR THIS WEBSITE AND YOU WILL SEE THE DOWNLOAD FOR THE XLS. i DID.

      1. On this blog post There is no opt in form or link to download the calculator. (Sorry for the all caps, something in this comment form is forcing all caps no matter what setting I change on my computer!)

        1. Weird. When I’m typing a comment the form shows all caps, but after I hit post the comment shows without all caps.

          1. Yes, a few other people have mentioned that. I’m really not sure why that’s happening. Strange!

        2. Hey Mel, The opt-in form is showing up for me. I’m using Chrome. Please try using either a different device or browser or clearing your cache to see if that helps. And please let us know if you still have trouble! Thanks!

  8. VERY NICE AND WILL BE QUITE USEFUL. ON THE ETSY FEES THERE IS ONE COLUMN MISSING, THE $.20 LISTING FEE WE ARE CHARGED ON EVERY SALE. oN THE SHIPPING CHARGES, IT WOULD ALSO BE NICE IF WE COULD CALCULATE THE SHIPPING SURCHARGE THAT gEARBUBBLE NOW CHARGES ME ON EVERY SALE.
    tHAN THIS SHEET WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY PERFECT
    tHANK YOU SO MUCH THOUGH FOR THIS HELPFUL SPREADSHEET.

  9. This is a great tool. that will make someone like me that’s new to the business job much easier. Much appreciated. thank you, thank you, thank you, and god speed

      1. Can’t find the link. were do you put the email address? I’ve tried the space below but got no response. Is there another space somewhere that i’m over looking.

        1. Hey Bobby, Input your email address to the opt-in form. Then, you’ll receive an email with your download. Please check your spam folder. Thanks!
