How do I print postage through PayPal for a non-eBay transaction?
Nov 21, 2012 08:16 AM

Hi,

I have a package to ship that is not an eBay related transaction. How can I print postage for this package through PayPal? I had that site bookmarked, but now it's says the site is invalid.

Thanks for the help, and happy holidays!

Hi Sunny!

 

Yep, the link given by Mr Lee still works ... if it does not work for you, perhaps you are having connectivity problems.  

 

If you get a "400 error", stating the site is invalid, can you still log into PayPal?  Your HOSTS file might be corrupted, or maybe your shortcut got munged.

and if by chance paypal.com/shipnow doesn't work, try Paypal Multi Order Shipping.

 

Once you enter MOS, select create, instead of import.

 

You can also try usps.com's click n ship.  They now accept Paypal payments for labels.


For mailing within the US, Delivery Confirmation is now called USPS Tracking.
