How each platform's fees work
Etsy fees
Etsy charges a 6.5% transaction fee on the item price plus the shipping you charge, payment processing of 3% + $0.25 per order (US), and a $0.20 listing fee each time an item sells and auto-renews. If the sale came through Offsite Ads, add 15% (12% if your shop made over $10,000 in the last year), capped at $100 per order. Free shipping doesn't avoid the 6.5%; it just moves the shipping into the item price, where the fee applies anyway.
Shopify fees
With Shopify Payments you pay the card rate for your plan (Basic: 2.9% + 30¢ online, US) and no transaction fee. Using an outside payment gateway adds a further 2% on Basic. Your monthly plan fee is overhead, so spread it across your products rather than counting it per sale.
Amazon fees
Most categories pay a 15% referral fee on the total sale price, including shipping. If you use FBA, the per-unit fulfillment fee depends on size and weight; enter it above. Professional sellers also pay $39.99 a month.
eBay fees
Most categories pay a 13.6% final value fee on the total amount (item plus shipping), plus $0.40 per order ($0.30 if the order is $10 or less).

How to price so the fees don't eat you
Fees are a percentage of your sale price, not your cost, so "cost times two" can still lose money once fees, a free-shipping label and a few returns come out. The price that hits a target margin is:
Price = (cost + label + fixed fees) ÷ (1 − fee % − target margin)
The calculator above uses this formula for the "price you need" line.
Questions
Does Etsy charge fees on shipping?
Yes. The 6.5% transaction fee and the 3% processing fee both apply to the shipping you charge, not just the item.
What percentage does Etsy take in total?
For a typical US sale, about 9.5% of the order plus $0.45, or roughly 24.5% plus $0.45 when the sale came from Offsite Ads.
