Etsy Hikes Transaction Fee to 6.5% for Sellers | Cost of Doing Business on the Rise

February 26, 2022 by Jennifer Moore Leave a Comment

Etsy announces changes for 2022 – as of April 11, the transaction fee will increase from the current 5% to 6.5% for sellers.

The company claims it will spend over $600 million on marketing, grow its support team by more than 20%, and “keep Etsy unique” through investments in teams and technology.

With other costs on the rise including supplies and shipping, what effect will this have on shop owners and consumers?

We dive into this topic here at the Sewing Report, and I share my own insight and predictions hitting the crafting space.
