Do You Pay for Shipping Labels on Shopify?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 8:11 pm

When you set up a Shopify account, you’re automatically given a shipping origin address. This is the address that Shopify uses to calculate shipping rates for your customers. If you want to use a different address as your shipping origin, you can change it in your account settings.

PRO TIP: If you are using Shopify to sell products online, be aware that you will need to pay for shipping labels in order to send your orders to customers. While Shopify does provide a discount on shipping labels when you purchase them through their platform, it is still important to be aware of this additional cost so that you can factor it into your pricing.

If you use Shopify Shipping, then you can buy and print shipping labels from within your Shopify admin. The cost of the label is calculated based on the weight and dimensions of the items in your order, as well as the shipping destination. You can also choose to add insurance to your shipping label.

If you’re not using Shopify Shipping, then you’ll need to purchase shipping labels from your chosen carrier. The cost of these labels will vary depending on the carrier and the shipping destination.
