How to Create a Shipping Label on eBay
-
Go to “Orders” in “My eBay” or “Seller Hub.” Log into your eBay account and navigate to “Orders” through “My eBay” or “Seller Hub.” Then, locate the order you want to ship. The process to create and print a shipping label is the same either way. [3] X Research source
- If you’re printing labels for multiple orders, visit “Seller Hub” and check the boxes beside every order you want to ship.
-
Click “Purchase shipping label” then fill out the shipping info. The “Purchase shipping label” option should be located beside the order you want to ship. Fill out all the required shipping label information, including the package’s weight and dimensions, the shipping address, and whether the package contains hazardous materials. [4] X Research source
- Round the package’s weight and dimensions to the nearest whole number.
- If your package contains hazardous materials, select the type of hazardous materials from the dropdown menu.
- When printing for multiple orders, select “Purchase shipping labels” from the “Shipping” dropdown. This will take you to the bulk shipping tool.
-
Choose your mailing date and shipping service. Select your mailing date on the “Ship on” dropdown menu, then select your preferred shipping service: FedEx, UPS, or USPS. Select any additional options, as well, like requiring a signature upon delivery or adding additional liability coverage. [5] X Research source
- Other add-ons include displaying the postage value on the label, adding custom text to the label, or adding a message in the dispatch confirmation email.
- Be aware that fees may apply if you add additional services.
- When printing labels for multiple orders, you’ll fill this information out for individual orders in the bulk shipping tool.
-
Choose a label format and select “Purchase shipping label” to print. Select a label format (printable label only or QR code and printable label) and how you’d like to pay for the label. Review the shipping costs, then click “Purchase shipping label” and follow the on-screen instructions to print your label. [6] X Research source
- Typically, the cost of the shipping label will come out of your seller funds on eBay, though you can select another payment option depending on which company you ship through.
- After printing your label, select “Print packing slip and more” on the “Order” page to print a packing slip or other information.
- When printing for multiple orders, click “Review purchase” to see the total cost of the labels, then “Confirm and pay” and “Print Labels” to print them.

How to Print a Shipping Label with a QR Code
-
Log into eBay and find “QR code” in “Orders.” Go to “Orders” in either “Seller Hub” or “My eBay” and select “Print shipping label.” Then, be sure to select a shipping service that says “Yes” under “QR code.” Select “QR code” under “Shipping label format.” [7] X Research source
- While QR codes are an option for FedEx, UPS, and USPS, they may not be supported at your nearest drop-off location.
- Using a QR code is a good option if you don’t have a printer at home or if you handle your orders from your phone.
-
Purchase and download the QR code. Select “Purchase shipping label” and choose if you’d like to download your QR code. eBay will also send you an email containing the QR code for each label you purchase. Be sure to save the QR code to your device in some format. [8] X Research source
-
Take the QR code to the nearest supported drop-off location. Take your package and the QR code to a drop-off location offering print in store. Have the worker scan the QR code to print the shipping label, then attach it to the package and ship it . [9] X Research source
- If needed, find your nearest FedEx, UPS, or USPS drop-off location by visiting their website.
- In some cases, you may be able to print the label from a self-serve kiosk instead.
