Frequently asked questions
Do fees differ for digital vs physical products?
Yes. Adjust listing fee, transaction fee, and cost of goods to match your product type and region.
Should I include ads spend?
Yes—add estimated ad cost per sale if you run Etsy Ads or off-platform ads, or leave it at zero for organic-only scenarios.
What profit margin should beginners aim for?
It depends on niche. Many digital sellers target healthier margins than physical goods because COGS is near zero after creation time.
