Etsy and eBay both charge a percentage-based final fee, but the shape of the total cost is different: Etsy stacks a small flat listing fee, a 6.5% transaction fee, and country-dependent payment processing, while eBay charges one category-based final value fee plus a small flat per-order fee. Enter a sale price to see how the two actually compare, using the exact same fee logic as each platform's own calculator.

Etsy and eBay both charge a percentage-based final fee, but the shape of the total cost is different: Etsy stacks a small flat listing fee, a 6.5% transaction fee, and country-dependent payment processing, while eBay charges one category-based final value fee plus a small flat per-order fee. Enter a sale price to see how the two actually compare, using the exact same fee logic as each platform's own calculator. Both sides use the exact fee formulas from each platform's own dedicated calculator, so if you want the full breakdown with every input option, visit the Etsy calculator or eBay calculator directly.
This comparison uses each platform's most common default rate (category, plan, or region) to keep things simple. Your actual rate may vary; check the full calculator for either platform to adjust for your specific category, plan, or country.
Fee rates are kept current but can change without notice. Always confirm current rates directly with each platform before making pricing decisions. This tool provides estimates only and isn't affiliated with or endorsed by Etsy or eBay.
