Order-level fee stack
Separate percentage fees, fixed charges and optional advertising before evaluating a listing.
Each tool on Profit Per Order exposes its assumptions. The purpose of this hub is to connect those formulas instead of treating every metric in isolation.
These guides use explicit formulas, assumptions and worked examples. They are planning references, not market benchmarks.
Run one repeatable monthly check from source documents through order contribution, break-even acquisition, returns, fixed costs and a downside scenario.
Match one Etsy order to the Payment account, separate every fee and explain why the bank deposit is not the same as order profit.
See how a cents-per-order payment charge raises the effective fee rate on inexpensive products, then test price floors, bundles and minimums.
Solve the minimum order value needed to fund seller-paid shipping without confusing revenue lift with contribution lift.
Use the right profit layer for pricing, advertising and operating decisions—and avoid treating gross margin as money available for ads.
Turn a complete order-cost stack into a defensible maximum CPA and break-even ROAS instead of relying on gross margin alone.
