Shipping label maker

Make a label

Makes the label. Does not buy postage.

One address, or a whole day of orders

The single label form takes one address: name, street, city, state, ZIP and country, with a company, an apartment line and a phone number if you need them. The From block can be filled from a saved sender when you are signed in, and you can still edit it before the label is made.

The CSV tab takes a batch of orders, one row per label. Headers are read without regard to case, and a row with a problem comes back with its row number and the field that failed, so a bad line is never dropped in silence.

Four sizes, one engine

Four layouts: a 4x6 label per page for a thermal printer, two 4x6 labels on a US Letter sheet, the Avery 5163 sheet (4 by 2 inches, 10 labels per sheet), and the Avery 5164 sheet (4 by 3.33 inches, 6 labels per sheet). The same four are offered on the single label form, the CSV upload and the API.

PDF now, ZPL for a thermal printer

Every plan downloads PDF. The paid plans also write ZPL: a 4x6 label at 203 dpi, which is what a ZPL thermal printer such as a Zebra or a Rollo reads, with one file holding the whole batch and each label set up as its own print job.

Required fields, a two letter country code and a US state are checked before a label is made. That catches a missing line and a typo. It says nothing about whether an address exists or whether a carrier will accept the label.

What the file is, and what it is not

It makes the label file and nothing else. No postage is bought, no carrier account is connected, no rate is quoted, and no tracking number is invented. You print the label, then buy the postage from whichever carrier or postage service you already use.
