Translate Your Etsy Listings from English to Portuguese
Portuguese (Português) has ~260 million native speakers in Brazil, Portugal and beyond. Portuguese unlocks Brazil — one of the world's largest e-commerce populations — plus Portugal's growing Etsy scene. Brazilian buyers are enthusiastic about personalized and handmade goods, and Portuguese-language competition on Etsy is thin.

What makes a Portuguese listing read native
Word-for-word translation fails Portuguese in specific, visible ways. These are the details our AI gets right — and generic tools get wrong.
Brazilian vs. European Portuguese
The markets differ: Brazilians say presente and personalizado naturally, while some European Portuguese phrasing differs in vocabulary and rhythm. Since Brazil is by far the larger buyer pool, listing translations should lean Brazilian-neutral.
Warmth converts
Portuguese product copy is affectionate by default — presentinho, feito à mão com carinho (handmade with care). A dry literal translation loses the warmth Brazilian buyers expect from handmade shops.
Occasion calendar differs
Dia das Mães falls in May in Brazil, and Festa Junina (June celebrations) drives seasonal gift searches with no English-market equivalent. Occasion tags need the local calendar, not a translated US one.
A real title, translated for Portuguese search
Custom Name Necklace, Gold Personalized Jewelry Gift
Colar com nome personalizado, Joia banhada a ouro — Presente especial
'Colar com nome' is the natural query pattern; a literal 'colar de nome customizado' reads foreign — 'customizado' is a borrowed word Brazilians associate with cars, not jewelry.

Frequently asked questions
Should I target Brazil or Portugal with a Portuguese translation?
One translation serves both — we write market-neutral Portuguese that leans toward Brazilian usage, since Brazil is the far larger buyer pool. Etsy shows it to Portuguese-language buyers everywhere.
Do Brazilians actually buy on Etsy?
Yes — Brazil has one of the world's largest online-shopping populations, and international handmade goods carry prestige there. Thin Portuguese-language competition means translated listings surface easily.
How much does it cost to translate an Etsy listing to Portuguese?
One translation (title + description + all 13 tags, published to Etsy) costs 100 credits — from $0.90 per listing on the Starter pack. No subscription, credits never expire.
What exactly gets translated to Portuguese?
The full listing: title, description and all 13 tags, written the way a native Portuguese-speaking seller would write them — then published directly to your listing's Portuguese version through Etsy's official API.
Will the translation overwrite my English listing?
No. Etsy stores translations per language alongside your original. Your English title, description and tags stay exactly as they are — buyers simply see the version in their language.
