How to create an Etsy seller account?
Creating a seller account on Etsy is a simple process. You just need to sign up with your email address. You can also login via your Apple/Google/Facebook accounts. This step is totally free.
How much does Etsy charge?
However, it is important to note that Etsy charges you $0.20 as a 4 months listing fee for each product you list on the Etsy platform. Listing fees are billed for 0.20 USD, so if your bank's currency is not USD, the amount in your currency may vary based on changes in the exchange rate.
