Do You Have to Pay for Shipping Labels on Shopify?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 9:50 pm

The short answer is no, you don’t have to pay for shipping labels on Shopify. However, there are a few things to keep in mind.

First, if you’re using a Shopify-supported carrier (UPS, USPS, DHL, or FedEx), then you’ll be able to print labels directly from your Shopify admin at a discounted rate. For example, UPS shipping labels start at $0.60 per label.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to use Shopify to sell products online, be aware that you will need to pay for shipping labels in order to send your orders out. While Shopify does offer a discount on shipping labels when you purchase them through their platform, it is still an additional cost that you will need to factor into your business.

If you’re using a different carrier, you’ll need to purchase shipping labels from them directly. However, you can still use Shopify’s built-in label printing tool to print the labels. The advantage of using Shopify’s label printing tool is that it integrates with your order management system, so you can keep track of all your orders in one place.

In conclusion, whether or not you have to pay for shipping labels on Shopify depends on which carrier you’re using. If you’re using a Shopify-supported carrier, then you’ll be able to print labels at a discounted rate. If you’re using a different carrier, you can still use Shopify’s built-in label printing tool to print the labels.
