What is a shipping label?
A shipping label is the sticker on a parcel or letter showing the recipient, sender, postage and barcodes. The shipping carrier reads it at every stage of the shipment's journey.
A parcel label shows the recipient's address, your sender address, the product and the tracking number. Barcodes help the sorting systems route the parcel to its destination.
You buy a shipping label from the shipping carrier, through eBay or through a shipping tool using your own contract. The purchase pays for the postage.
