How Do I Create a Shipping Label on Shopify?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 4:09 pm

There are a few different ways that you can create a shipping label on Shopify. The easiest way is to use a Shopify shipping app, which will automatically generate labels for you based on the products in your store and the shipping address. Alternatively, you can use a label printing service like Shipstation or Endicia, which will allow you to print labels from Shopify directly.

If you’re using a Shopify shipping app, the process is pretty straightforward. Simply add the products you want to ship to your shopping cart, enter the shipping address, and select a shipping method. The app will then generate a label for you based on the information you’ve provided.

If you’re using Shipstation or Endicia, the process is slightly different. First, you’ll need to create an account with one of these services and connect it to your Shopify store.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to create a shipping label on Shopify, please be aware that there are some potential risks involved.

First and foremost, please be sure that you have correctly entered the shipping address before creating the label. If the label is created with an incorrect address, it is likely that your package will be returned to you or delivered to the wrong address, which could cause significant delays.

Additionally, please be aware that once a shipping label has been created, it cannot be cancelled or refunded. Therefore, if you have any doubts about the accuracy of the shipping address or the contents of your package, we recommend that you wait to create the label until you are absolutely certain.

Once that’s done, you can create shipping labels directly from Shopify. To do this, go to your orders page, select the order you want to ship, and click the “Create Shipping Label” button. This will open up a form where you can enter the details of your shipment and print out the label.

Both of these methods are quick and easy ways to create shipping labels for your Shopify orders. However, it’s important to note that there are some differences between them.

For example, Shipstation and Endicia allow you to print labels for international shipments, while most shipping apps only support domestic shipping. Additionally, Shipstation and Endicia typically offer lower rates for shipping than most shipping apps. So if you’re looking for the most cost-effective option, these services are definitely worth considering.
