A Free Etsy Fee & Profit Calculator Chrome Extension

A free, no-permission Chrome extension that shows what an Etsy sale nets after every 2026 fee — by country — plus your profit and margin. Download and how to use it.

Etsy's fee page reads like a single number—6.5%—until you actually get paid and the deposit is smaller than the math in your head. There's the listing fee, the transaction fee on shipping and item, payment processing that changes with the country your bank sits in, the Regulatory Operating fee if you're in one of nine countries, currency conversion if you list in a currency your account doesn't hold, and Offsite Ads on top of all of it. I got tired of rebuilding that stack in a spreadsheet every time I priced a product, so I built a tiny Chrome extension that does it in one box.

It's free, it asks for no permissions, and it's pure arithmetic—nothing you type leaves your browser. This post is the download plus a walkthrough of how to install and use it.

Download

Download the extension (.zip, ~19 KB)

It's a plain, unpacked Chrome extension—no account, no sign-up, no API key. It works in Chrome, Edge, and Brave.

What it does

You type an item price; it shows what actually lands in your account. Specifically:

• Enter the item price, shipping charged, product cost, and quantity. Cost and quantity are optional—leave them and you still get the fee math.
• Pick your bank account location. This is the pivot: payment processing, the Regulatory Operating fee, and whether the 2.5% currency conversion applies all depend on it.
• Tick Offsite Ads if the order came through Etsy's external ads, and the currency box if you list in USD but get paid in another currency.
• Read the net deposit, profit, and margin—plus a full fee breakdown line by line, and a per-order comparison against Shopify's card fee.

A $30 sale with free shipping, sold by a US seller, nets about $26.70—roughly 11% in fees. The same $30 sale for a Vietnam-based seller listing in USD nets closer to $24.90, about 17%, purely because of bank-account location and currency conversion. The extension shows you that gap before you set a price, not after payout.

Install it (Developer Mode)

Because this is a downloadable tool rather than a Web Store listing, you load it yourself in Developer Mode. It takes about a minute:

1. Unzip the download somewhere permanent (e.g. Documents) —
   don't delete the folder afterward; Chrome loads from it.
2. Open chrome://extensions
3. Turn on "Developer mode" (top-right toggle)
4. Click "Load unpacked"
5. Select the unzipped "storefleet-etsy-fee-calculator" folder

Then click the puzzle-piece icon in the toolbar and pin the percent-mark icon so it's one click away. That's it.

One caveat worth knowing: Chrome shows a mild "developer-mode extensions" reminder now and then—that's normal for any extension you load unpacked instead of from the Web Store.

Use it

Click the icon and you get a form:

1. Type the item price (and shipping, if you charge it separately). The badge at the top updates the net deposit live as you type.
2. Add your product cost to turn the net into profit and margin. Skip it if you only want the fee side.
3. Choose your country from the picker—US, UK, several eurozone countries, Canada, Australia, India, Vietnam, or "USD settlement" for accounts paid in USD.
4. Flip the switches for Offsite Ads and USD-listing currency conversion as they apply to the order.

Open the Fee breakdown and you see each fee as its own line—listing, transaction, processing, regulatory, conversion, Offsite Ads—so nothing is a black box. Your last inputs are remembered locally, so re-pricing tomorrow starts where you left off.

Why the country picker matters

The single biggest reason two sellers net different amounts on an identical order is where their bank account sits:

• Payment processing ranges from 3% + $0.25 (US) to 4.5% + a local flat fee (Vietnam) to 6.5% + $0.30 (accounts settled in USD).
• The Regulatory Operating fee applies in exactly nine countries—for example 1.24% in Vietnam, 1.14% in France, 0.48% in the UK—and to nobody else.
• Currency conversion (2.5%) only hits if you list in a currency your payment account doesn't hold, which is common for international sellers targeting the US market in USD.

The extension bakes all three into the country you choose, so the number is yours, not a US-default estimate.

Where the numbers come from

Every rate is transcribed from Etsy's own Fees & Payments Policy and Help Center, verified for 2026—the same figures I walk through in Etsy fees 2026 explained. One honest caveat: Etsy charges some processing "flat" fees in a local currency (Vietnam's 11,500₫, the UK's £0.20), and to show the whole estimate in one currency the extension converts those to a rough USD figure. They're small—under about $0.45—so the total is a close estimate rather than a to-the-cent invoice. The percentages, which do the heavy lifting, are exact.

How it protects your data

There's nothing sensitive to leak here, and I kept it that way on purpose:

• The extension declares no permissions at all in its manifest.
• It makes no network requests—there's no server, no analytics, nothing phoning home. It's arithmetic that runs in the popup.
• Only your last inputs are stored, in the browser's local storage, on your machine, so the box remembers your usual numbers. Nothing is uploaded, ever.

You can read every line of it; it's a handful of small files with no build step and no dependencies.

Where it stops—and what comes next

I want to be straight about what this is: a pricing aid for one sale at a time. It tells you what a given price nets under a given fee stack, which is exactly what you want when you're setting prices or sanity-checking a listing. What it doesn't do is watch your actual orders. It can't tell you your blended margin across a month of sales, how many orders quietly carried the 12–15% Offsite Ads fee, or what your fee-adjusted profit looks like once you're also running a Shopify store or three.

The moment pricing turns into reporting—actual margin across real orders, across channels—you've outgrown any single-sale calculator, including this one. That's when the fee math belongs in a system that reads every order and computes the real number for you:

• For building this per-fee discipline into your numbers, see profit tracking for dropshipping operations.
• For deciding whether Etsy's stack still beats running your own store, see Etsy vs Shopify in 2026 and how to run Etsy and Shopify together.
• For pulling profit and payouts together once you're on more than one store, see consolidated finance across multiple stores.

Use the calculator to price the next listing right today. When the question shifts from "what does this sale net" to "what did last month actually net across everything I sell," graduate to a system that does the watching for you.
