Folksy Fee Calculator

Folksy's fees work differently from Etsy's: commission is charged on the item only (not postage), listing fees carry VAT, and payment processing is between you and Stripe or PayPal. This stacks all of it — and tells you when the £7.50/month Plus account starts paying for itself. Runs in your browser, no signup.

Your sale

Verified August 2026 from Folksy's own fee pages: listing 15p + VAT per item quantity (first 3 free), commission 6% + VAT (= 7.2%) on the item price only — postage is commission-free. Plus (£7.50/mo or £75/yr) covers listings only; commission is unchanged. Processing fees are your card processor's — edit to match yours.
