About Etsy, Inc.
About Etsy, Inc.
Etsy marketplace generated $10.5 billion in GMS in 2025, down 4% year-over-year, while Depop — pending sale to eBay for $1.2 billion in cash — contributed $1.1 billion at 36% growth. Total consolidated GMS reached $11.9 billion, with 74% of Etsy marketplace GMS from U.S. buyers and 45% transacted through the Etsy mobile app, up from 42% in 2024.
Etsy earns revenue through required marketplace fees — transaction fees (inclusive of offsite advertising), payments processing fees, and listing fees — plus optional on-site advertising and shipping labels. In 2025, the company generated $693.4 million in cash from operations despite the GMS decline, driven by Etsy Ads product improvements through machine learning-based ranking and seller budget pacing. The seller base of 5.6 million active sellers skews heavily toward micro-businesses: 89% are single-person operations and 97% run from home. Etsy repurchased 14.4 million shares at $777.1 million in 2025 and ended the year with $1.4 billion in cash, plus a new $750 million buyback authorized in December 2025.
Show full overview
Etsy marketplace GMS has declined year-over-year for two consecutive years against a backdrop of continued pressure on consumer discretionary spending flagged throughout the 10-K. The habitual buyer cohort — shoppers spending $200 or more on six or more purchase days annually — contracted 9% in 2025 and represented about 40% of total GMS, meaning a small segment drives a disproportionate share of revenues. Google Cloud concentration adds a distinct supply-side dimension: the 10-K discloses that Etsy marketplace operations rely in significant part on continued access to, and the continued stability of, Google Cloud, and that any significant disruption would negatively impact operations.
