Etsy Profit Calculator for Canada
Estimate Etsy seller profit by combining marketplace-style fees with product cost, shipping cost, advertising cost, and optional custom fee overrides. Inputs stay in your browser and are not sent to a server.
Canada currency and assumptions
Canadian sellers may need to consider CAD settlement, provincial tax handling, and cross-border sales to US or international buyers.
Canada pages use CAD. GST, HST, PST, or QST treatment can vary by province and marketplace role.
How seller fees are usually calculated
Marketplace fees can include transaction fees, payment processing fees, listing-related costs, advertising, regulatory fees, and tax handling.
The exact Etsy fee can differ by seller location, buyer location, listing currency, optional ad programs, and payment method.
Because marketplace fee rules are layered, this MVP keeps unverified rates out of fee rules until manual review is complete.
Formula explanation
Estimated profit = customer pays + shipping charged - Etsy-style fees - product cost - shipping cost - ad cost.
Reverse fee mode estimates the customer charge needed to reach a target received amount. Platform comparison mode applies the same sale inputs across PayPal, Stripe, Etsy, and eBay.
Example calculation
Canada sample: enter CAD 100.00 customer pays, CAD 12.00 shipping charged, CAD 35.00 product cost, and a manually checked fee amount if available.
Sample values are for explaining the math only. They are not official platform fee rates.
Try CAD 100.00 as customer pays, then add shipping charged, product cost, shipping cost, ad cost, and a reviewed custom fee amount if you have one.
Custom fee override
Use custom fee override to enter a fee amount from an Etsy statement, official policy review, or your own manually checked model.
If the selected source data has not been manually verified, the result card shows “Fee data requires manual review.” In that case, custom override is the safest way to model a fee you have checked yourself.
Use your own fee rate if you have a current platform fee schedule. Unverified fee data is not presented as confirmed.
Source status
Fee data requires manual review before any rate should be treated as verified.

FAQ
How are seller fees calculated?
Etsy fees are usually estimated from the gross sale amount, fixed charges, optional international or conversion charges, and any custom fee amount you enter.
Why can the actual fee differ from this estimate?
Actual fees can differ because platforms may use account-specific pricing, card type, buyer location, category, dispute, refund, tax, subscription, promotion, or custom pricing rules.
Does this calculator include international fees?
International Etsy costs can depend on buyer location, listing currency, payment processing, tax handling, and seller programs. Use custom override until country-specific rules are reviewed.
Does this calculator include currency conversion?
Currency conversion is not assumed unless reviewed data supports it. For listings sold in a different currency, enter a reviewed custom fee amount.
Does this calculator include VAT or sales tax?
GST/HST/PST/QST is not treated as verified fee data for Canada. Do not use the result for GST/HST/PST/QST filing. Check CRA, provincial sources, or professional advice.
Can I enter my own custom fee rate?
You can enter a custom fee amount with the custom fee override toggle. If you prefer to model a rate, calculate that fee amount from your checked rate first, then enter the amount.
