    How it works

    How the Etsy Ads ROI Calculator works

    This calculator is transparent by design. Review the steps and formulas so you can trust the estimate and adjust assumptions when your dashboard differs.

    Calculation steps

    1. 1Etsy fees = attributedRevenue × (transaction% + processing%)/100 + processingFixed × orderCount.
    2. 2Product and fulfillment = attributedRevenue × (productCost% + shippingCost%)/100.
    3. 3Total cost = adSpend + etsyFees + productAndFulfillment.
    4. 4Net profit from ads = attributedRevenue − totalCost.
    5. 5ROAS = attributedRevenue / adSpend.
    6. 6ROI = (netProfitFromAds / adSpend) × 100.
    7. 7Break-even ROAS = 1 / (1 - (transaction%+processing%+product%+shipping%)/100).

    Formulas

    • EtsyFees = revenue × (txn% + proc%)/100 + fixed × orders
    • Fulfillment = revenue × (product% + ship%)/100
    • TotalCost = adSpend + etsyFees + fulfillment
    • NetProfit = revenue − totalCost
    • ROAS = revenue / adSpend
    • ROI = netProfit / adSpend × 100
    • BreakEvenROAS = 1 / (1 − costRate)

    Important assumptions

    • Attributed revenue is taken from Etsy Ads dashboard for same period as ad spend.
    • Etsy fees on ad orders use transaction + payment percentages applied to attributed revenue plus fixed fee per ad order.
    • Product and shipping costs are modeled as percent of attributed revenue for quick what-if analysis.
    • Break-even ROAS simplifies to 1 / (1 - fee% - cost%) ignoring fixed per-order fee for readability; full net profit calc includes fixed fee.
    • Results are estimates — confirm attribution window and fee rates in your Etsy account.
