Traceable formula
- Listing fee is modeled as an approximate CAD equivalent of Etsy's 0.20 USD listing fee.
- Transaction fee = price x 6.5%.
- Payment processing fee uses the selected Canadian Etsy Payments rate: domestic/US order or international order.
- Optional Offsite Ads estimate can use either the standard 15% attributed-order fee or the 12% high-volume shop rate.
- GST/HST/PST/QST is not included in profit or break-even math.
Compliance note
Canadian sellers should validate GST/HST/PST/QST obligations, marketplace collection rules, and product taxability. Etsy lists 15% as the standard Offsite Ads attributed-order fee, with 12% applying after the $10,000 USD shop-sales threshold. The listing fee and Offsite Ads cap are CAD planning estimates from Etsy's USD-denominated fee references.
FAQ
Does this include Canadian GST/HST, PST, or QST?
No. The calculator estimates Etsy platform and payment fees. Canadian indirect tax obligations depend on location, registration status, marketplace collection rules, and product taxability.
Why are there two Etsy payment processing options?
Etsy lists one Canadian Etsy Payments rate for domestic and US orders and a higher rate for international orders, so the calculator exposes both.
