FAQ’s
How to create a shipping label?
To create a shipping label with Sendcloud, first integrate your e-commerce store to import recent orders. Then, edit order details if needed, select the orders for labeling, and click “Create labels” to download or print them. Additionally, you can contact one of our team members, who will provide you with more information.
I want to change an order before I print the label - how do I do that?
Simply select the pen icon next to the order you want to change to edit the order. In the order detail view you can change the shipping method, address, insurance amount, contact details, and other order information. You can use the dropdown arrow to make quick changes to the shipping method and insurance.
How to print shipping labels and what’s the shipping label format?
Once you’ve created your labels, they will appear in the “Created labels” tab. Select the labels you want to print and press the Print button.
With Sendcloud, all your labels are created in standard A6 format (105 x 148mm). You can either use a standard laser-jet printer using plain paper or A4 size sticker paper (so you can print 4 labels per A4 sheet), or a specialized thermal label printer which will produce self-adhesive labels in A6 format ready to be stuck on your packages.
Can I print labels in bulk?
Yes, Sendcloud supports bulk printing, making it easy to handle large orders efficiently and save time.
Can I create shipping labels manually?
You can manually create labels by clicking on the “+ New shipment” button on the top right of your screen. You will be taken to a form that you can fill out with your customer’s details and the order details.
Once you have entered all the necessary details, you can click “Create label” to save the form and print the shipping label. You can also create labels by uploading a spreadsheet of orders from a .CSV file
When does a shipping label expire?
The validity of a label depends on the country and the carrier it’s was created by. We kindly advise you to write to our customer service to have more exact information about the validity of single labels.
How and where to put the shipping label on the box?
A shipping label is normally placed on the largest side of the package, ideally on the top. The label should be the correct size so it fits entirely on the side where it’s placed.
Ensure it is not folded over any edges; important information might not be seen or be able to be scanned. Find out more in our blog What Is A Shipping Label & How Does It Work? A Guide For E-commerce.
How can I create and include return shipping labels in my packages?
With Sendcloud, you can easily create return shipping labels and include them in your packages. Use the Prepaid Returns feature to automatically generate and print return labels along with your shipping labels in bulk, ensuring a seamless return process for your customers. This feature helps improve customer satisfaction and simplifies the returns workflow for your business.
