What are Etsy Offsite Ads fees?
If a buyer clicks a Google or Facebook ad paid for by Etsy and buys your item within 30 days, Etsy charges an additional 15% Offsite Ads Fee (or 12% if your shop makes over $10,000 a year). For high-earning shops, participation in Offsite Ads is mandatory and cannot be opted out of.
Does Etsy charge fees on shipping?
Yes. Etsy applies the 6.5% transaction fee to the total amount the buyer pays, which includes the cost of shipping and gift wrapping. This prevents sellers from avoiding fees by selling a $100 item for $1 and charging $99 for shipping.
