Allowing customers to send in items via a paid for printable postage label to be altered and sent back

Hi,

We would like to offer a service to customers of our boutique sustainable fashion label online shops that enables them to click a buy link and have a product code and free postage label created for them to print. They can then send in there “shirt” for example and when we receive we have the return address and a product code to track there order. The shirt will then be modified and posted back by hand. I can understand they may need to weigh and size the item.. Thoughts and is there a way around this?

Am I summarizing this correctly: You want visitors to an online store to be able to click a link/button that automatically generates a shipping label and displays or emails it to them?

If so, yes it’s possible. You can generate shipping labels with the Veeqo API.

I believe the process is:

  1. Create an allocation: Create a New Allocation | Developers
  2. Retrieve a shipping rate: Retrieve Shipping Rates | Developers
  3. Then you can purchase a label: Purchase Shipping Labels | Developers
