Published fee rules reviewed:
Sources and calculation assumptions. Payment processing. Regulatory operating fee. Offsite Ads fee. Tax on Etsy fees (%).
Fee review is over 30 days old. Check the official sources and your invoice before relying on this estimate.
Enter valid nonnegative amounts. Choose a buyer-tax amount or a rate, and enter a positive order value.
Other costs per order
Add only costs not already included above. Allocate subscriptions, listing renewals, expected losses and overhead using your own sales assumptions.
Fee assumptions
Use a buyer-tax amount OR rate, never both. The rate scales with price and shipping; a fixed amount stays unchanged in price scenarios. Seller tax is deducted from tax-inclusive revenue. Use costs net of recoverable tax.
Fee tax is a uniform estimate on all modelled fees. Actual taxable fee categories and tax registration can change the amount; reconcile to your Etsy invoice.
Use 2.5% only when listing and payment-account currencies differ. Enter all amounts in the displayed currency; no live currency exchange is performed.

Scenarios use your inputs and assume one completed order. Margin uses gross order revenue. These are sensitivity checks, not sales forecasts or probabilities.
One item per completed order. Use discounted prices and actual costs in the displayed currency. Presets and non-USD fee conversions are illustrative. Tax rates, currency conversion and allocated costs apply only as entered. This is an order estimate, not a tax return or payout reconciliation. Refunds, income tax and payment-provider charges are not automatically determined.
Compare the profit from a specific Printify variant and shipping destination on Etsy. Use your provider quote, then test postage, discounts and attributed ad orders.
Calculate my estimateHow do you calculate Printify profit on Etsy?
Start with the item price plus shipping paid by the customer. Deduct Etsy fees, Printify production and fulfilment shipping, plus any supplier tax or extras you include in costs. The Printify profit calculator keeps marketplace deductions and provider charges separate so the Etsy payout is not mistaken for profit.
Regional assumptions: Australia
Australian defaults use AUD and domestic processing of 3% + A$0.25. International orders use 4% + A$0.25; change the processing field. The 10% fee-tax setting is an illustrative GST assumption and can be adjusted to your invoice. No regulatory fee is applied.
Use an AUD total for production and delivery from the actual Printify route. A provider catalogue price in USD cannot be entered unchanged beside an AUD retail price. Compare domestic and international buyers with the corresponding Etsy processing rate.

Trace the Etsy payment and the Printify bill
The illustrative order below shows why two records matter. Etsy handles the customer payment and its seller fees; Printify charges fulfilment through your Printify balance or payment method. The apparent Etsy remainder still has to cover that separate provider bill.
| Line | Amount | Who takes it |
|---|---|---|
| Buyer pays | $41.00 | Etsy checkout |
| Etsy fees incl. GST | โ $4.89 | Etsy |
| After estimated Etsy fees | $36.11 | Etsy |
| Classic tee base + shipping | โ $21.72 | Printify |
| Estimated order profit | $14.39 (35.1%) | You |

Table uses the default assumptions, one item, no buyer tax and no Offsite Ads unless shown. Editing the calculator does not change this example.
Printify explains this sequence in its payment-process guide. The table's product and shipping figures are sample inputs, not current Printify prices, and its Etsy remainder is before any account-level adjustments.
Compare delivered costs in the Printify profit calculator
Choose the product, size, colour and print areas before comparing providers. Then use the same delivery destination and service for both quotes. A lower production figure does not establish the lower total fulfilment cost when postage, extras or taxes differ.
Printify's own profit-calculator documentation supports variant-level pricing decisions. Copy your current amounts into this independent calculator to include the Etsy fee assumptions used here.
A cheaper base product can leave less profit
Compare two hypothetical quotes after converting them to AUD: provider A charges $13.68 production plus $10.64 delivery; provider B charges $16.72 plus $6.84. Delivered totals are $24.32 and $23.56. With the same Etsy inputs, B leaves $0.76 more contribution. Use your actual conversion basis and supplier quote; these are not current catalogue prices.
Check the offer beyond cost too: product specification, print placement and delivery expectations must be comparable. This arithmetic does not rate provider quality or claim those amounts are currently available in the catalogue.
Calculate a subscription's break-even volume
If a hypothetical plan costs $45.60 per month and saves $3.04 on each eligible order, 15 orders cover it before other differences. At eight orders, its allocation is $5.70 per order. Compare the actual plan charge and variant savings on a consistent AUD basis.
A discount on production does not automatically apply to shipping, taxes or every variant. Enter the discounted production quote in the tool, then allocate the monthly plan cost separately so it is not omitted or deducted twice.
Price destinations and variants separately
A domestic T-shirt order and an overseas hoodie order are different cost cases. Save the actual production and shipping amounts for each important combination, and test the variants with the highest fulfilment cost. A single optimistic preset can hide losses on larger sizes or more expensive routes.
If orders are rerouted or substitutions are enabled in your provider workflow, compare the resulting actual charge with the amount used in pricing. Do not assume a published listing price changes automatically whenever fulfilment costs change.
Plan for the gap between billing and payout
Order profit can be positive while available cash is temporarily short. A provider charge and an Etsy deposit do not have to occur on the same day, and account reserves or adjustments can affect the deposit. Track the funds needed to fulfil orders separately from the profit calculation.
Keep an allowance for customer-service costs, replacements and non-recoverable taxes based on your own experience. For an order routed through another provider platform, use the Printful profit calculator with that platform's actual quote rather than reusing a Printify preset.
