Craft pricing: materials, your time, overhead and Etsy fees. Free, offline.
Makerledger works out what each handmade piece really costs you, then shows fair prices and
what you actually keep after Etsy, Amazon Handmade, Shopify, Square or craft-fair fees. Every
feature is free. No account, no subscription: your records stay on your phone.
MATERIALS AS YOU BUY THEM
- Add each material the way you buy it: 100 beads for $12.99, 3 yards of linen, a 10 lb bag of wax
- Shipping and sales tax on the pack are spread over it
- Buy in yards, use in inches; buy in pounds, use in ounces: units convert exactly
- Waste per material (offcuts, spills, rejects), overridable per product
- Change a price once and every product that uses it updates, with a "what changed" view of cost
and margin before and after, and a price history per material
EVERY COST IN A PRODUCT
- A bill of materials with decimal quantities, plus packaging shown separately
- Several labour steps, each at your hourly wage or its own rate
- Machine time at a running cost: Cricut, laser, kiln, sewing machine
- Other costs per batch, and batch yields (decimals allowed)
- Monthly overhead (shop plan, insurance, studio rent) spread per item or per hour worked
- A clear breakdown bar: materials, packaging, your time, machine, overhead
PRICES THAT SURVIVE FEES
- Three methods side by side, each explained: cost + profit, wholesale x2 / retail x2, target margin
- One tap to use a price, rounded the way you like (.99, .50, whole, by 5)
- What you keep on each channel: transaction, processing, listing and referral fees, shipping
charged and the label you pay, a craft fair's booth fee spread over expected sales
- Your break-even price and the price that keeps your target margin after fees
- "You really earn $X an hour": your wage plus the profit, per hour of your work
- A price-vs-profit chart and every channel compared at your price
- Fee presets for Etsy, Amazon Handmade, Shopify, Square and craft fairs (US rates as of
October 2026), every fee editable, and add your own channels
STOCK AND SALES
- "Make a batch": materials leave stock, finished items arrive
- Low-stock alerts and a reorder list grouped by supplier
- Market-day mode: big product buttons, cash or card, undo, stock kept, screen stays on, works
offline in a field
- Sales log with profit per sale (frozen on the day), best sellers, by channel, cash taken
- Export sales, products with costs, and materials as CSV
PRINT AND SHARE
- Price tags as a PDF (small or large, with your shop name and SKU)
- A wholesale/retail price sheet for shops and fairs
- Custom-order quotes with extras, deposit and terms
YOURS
- Backup and restore to a single file you keep; moving phones takes a minute
- Money is calculated exactly, so no rounding drift in totals
- 20 currencies
- Optional one-time purchase removes ads; no subscription, nothing locked
Fees are estimates from public fee guides and change over time: check your marketplace's own
fee page. Makerledger is a pricing tool, not tax or accounting advice.
