How can I set up shipping with eBay US?

The Print Provider’s flat shipping rates for each item are automatically pushed to your eBay US store as Business Policies when you publish a product. You can see all our shipping rates here.

You can create manual Business Policies on eBay with custom rates, but it's not possible to select a specific one during product publishing from Printify. If you'd like to use your custom rates, you'll have to manually reassign the policies of your products in eBay.

What if I want to offer free shipping?

You can enable free shipping for your products when publishing from Printify. Keep in mind that when using this option, you’ll still need to pay for shipping in Printify. We recommend adding the shipping cost to your product retail price so that it doesn’t affect your profits. The shipping cost is displayed in the Shipping cost column of the pricing table.

Note

If using a Print Provider that is not US-based, make sure to choose “Free shipping” instead of using automatically assigned shipping rates. The automatically assigned shipping rates will not be accurate if the Print Provider is located in a country other than the US.

When selling products with multiple variants (such as 11 oz and 15 oz mugs), eBay may not always display the exact shipping cost for each variant. To keep your pricing consistent, you can:

Adjust the price of each variant to account for the shipping cost difference, or
Create separate product listings for each variant (e.g., one listing for the 11 oz mug and another for the 15 oz mug).

As you start stocking your eBay store with products, be sure to familiarize yourself with eBay selling limits and how to increase them.
