All you need is a PayPal account and a digital scale. Buying postage on PayPal is easy and you don’t even need an invoice from eBay! Here’s how to create a PayPal shipping label without invoice or eBay transaction.
Requirements:

How to print a PayPal shipping label without a payment ... #eBayLife #PayPalLife #PayPal Share on XPayPal Shipping Advantages:
- Save Time: Never wait in line to ship packages at the post office again. Just weigh and measure your packages, affix your labels, and drop off your packages.
- Discounted Paypal Shipping Rates: Buying your postage from Paypal won’t just save you time, but money too. Paypal has discounted pricing on shipping rates from both the USPS and UPS shipping services (not FedEx). Both USP and USPS have a variety of shipping options including providing tracking numbers, printed packing slips, multi-order shipping, international shipping, priority mail service, free insurance for premium shipping options, and easy customs forms. Multiple shipping methods are available from both shipping carriers including First Class Mail from the U.S. Postal Service.
Digital Scales & Shipping Supplies
You don’t need a fancy shipping label printer ($70-$300 via Amazon) or clear adhesive mailing label pouches. A regular printer and some cheap clear plastic shipping tape will do the trick for most individuals and small businesses. But one item you definitely need is a digital scale capable of weighing packages down to the ounce.
Clear Packing Tape
Your bathroom scale won’t work. But check your kitchen before you buy a shipping scale. You might already have a kitchen scale that you can use. If not, you’ll need to grab your credit card and invest in a decent digital shipping scale ($20-$100 via Amazon).
PayPal Shipping Label Without Invoice vs USPS Online Shipping
One last thing to mention. You can also create an online United States Postal Service (USPS) account and create shipping labels on their website. But if you are already an Amazon or eBay seller, then it’s usually more convenient to use PayPal as your shiplabel provider. Plus PayPal also allows you to ship using UPS if necessary.
There you have it. Buying postage on PayPal and creating a PayPal shipping label without an invoice are both very easy tasks. But definitely compare the rates between services before making a decision. Good luck!
How To Easily Create A PayPal Shipping Label Without Invoice ... #eBayLife #PayPalLife #PayPal Share on XNERD NOTE: PayPal is one of the few companies in history to IPO twice. In 2002, PayPal stock went public on the NASDAQ. A few months after their IPO, eBay bought PayPal for $1.5 billion dollars. The deal resulted in a merging of both eBay and PayPal stock. Then thirteen years later in 2015, eBay spun off PayPal into a separate company again. This resulted in the second PayPal IPO.

Really frustrated that PayPal took off the link to do this. I tried clicking your link and it sent me to a HOPEFUL part of PP that let me do it… HOWEVER.. its just a sheet to fill out the shipping information and the button to complete the action is COVERED up under the bottom…I tried Tab’ing through to see if I could get to the bottom and it just sat there… VERY unsuccessful… 🙁
