Late last month etsy announced that it would start automatically advertising on sellers behalf and charging them when it led to a sale. You can select which listings to include in etsy ads decide on your budget or stop your etsy ads campaign at any time in shop manager. The previous etsy ads program included both onsite ads on etsy and google shopping ads whereas the updated etsy ads is dedicated to only etsy onsite ads.
So let s say you make 1 000 a year on etsy and 10 of your sales come from offsite ads that would mean your advertising fees for the year would be just 15 based on a 15 advertising fee. For most sellers one in 10 sales about 10 will come from offsite ads. Here s what that might mean for you.
The advertising fee is in addition to etsy s transaction and payment processing fees. In contrast offsite ads automatically takes a whopping 15 percent of income from eligible sales up to 100 per order. Under etsy ads sellers could enter a budget when opting in to the service.
This makes it easier to reach buyers with a higher intent to purchase. When you advertise with etsy ads your listings stand out in etsy search. When you are advertising your listings through etsy ads we may show your items throughout etsy.
