Etsy and eBay shipping labels from your order export
You can turn your Etsy or eBay orders into 4x6 shipping labels without copying a single address. Download the orders as a CSV, upload the file, and each order becomes one ship-to label. It works with Zebra, Rollo and DYMO printers. No signup.
How it works
Download the orders, and every row is a label
Turn your orders into labels
Open the 4 x 6 label with a sample order list, then swap in your own CSV.

Twelve orders and a cold cup of coffee
The orders came in overnight. Now they need to go in boxes.
So you open the first one, copy the name, paste it, go back, copy the street. By order four you've stopped trusting yourself with the zip codes.
You don't need to retype any of it. Etsy and eBay will both hand you a spreadsheet of the orders, and that file already has what the label needs.
The one thing to be clear on: this makes the ship-to label you stick on the box. It doesn't buy postage.

Get your orders out of Etsy
Etsy keeps this in a place you wouldn't guess.
That file is the whole month, so it may hold orders you already shipped. You'll choose the ones you want in a minute. The steps are on Etsy's help page if the menus have moved.
- In Shop Manager, go to Settings, then Options.
- Open the Download Data tab.
- Under Orders, pick the Order CSV type, then the month and year.
- Click Download CSV.
4eBay
Get your orders out of eBay
eBay's version lives right on the orders page.
Filter first, because the report covers everything in your current results. And watch the column names. The buyer and the person it's going to aren't always the same, so use the Ship To or Post To columns for the label. There's more on eBay's Seller Hub help.
- In Seller Hub, open Orders, then Manage orders.
- Filter the list down to what you haven't shipped.
- Click Download report.
5Postage
Postage still comes from Etsy or eBay
If you buy postage through Etsy or eBay, they give you their own label with the tracking barcode on it. Print that PDF at 100 percent. That's the label the carrier scans.
So when would you make your own? When you take parcels to the post office and pay at the counter. When you've bought postage somewhere else and just need a tidy address on the box. Or when you want an order number on the outside so you can match the parcel to the sale.
If you need the printer side of it, printing shipping labels on a Zebra goes through it.
6Your file
Print a day's orders from the file
You only do the setup once. Tomorrow it's the same label and a new file.
Selling on Shopify or somewhere else? It's the same job with a different export. The bigger picture is on the 4x6 shipping label maker.
- Open the 4 x 6 label at https://app.mylabelmaker.com. No signup.
- Upload the CSV under Data.
- Connect each line. Click it, then Variables, and pick the column.
- Tick today's orders in Edit row. Nothing prints until you tick it.
- Print one and read the zip code. Then print the rest.
Etsy and eBay label questions
Can I print Etsy shipping labels without buying postage through Etsy?
You can make a ship-to label for the box from your Etsy order CSV. Postage is separate, so you'd pay for it at the counter or wherever you buy it.
Does this connect to my Etsy or eBay account?
No. You download a CSV from your shop and upload that file. Nothing logs in to your account, and it doesn't update when new orders come in.
Why does my eBay label have the wrong name?
The buyer and the recipient can be different people. Use the Ship To or Post To columns from the report, not the Buyer columns.
Can I print only some of the orders?
Yes. Rows start unticked. Open Edit row, tick the orders you're packing, and print those.
