Shipping labelsBuilt, not switched on
Postage labels for the books you post yourself.
Built, not switched on. EasyPost doesn’t work with Lanternbee yet. What follows separates what works today from what’s planned.
When you sell copies from your own stock, someone has to buy the postage. EasyPost sells labels from many carriers through one account. Lanternbee can buy an EasyPost label for a parcel from the To ship page, but label buying is not switched on yet. Until it is, the rest of the page works without it.
What it does in Lanternbee
- From the To ship page, buy one label per parcel, the cheapest service or one you name, as a PDF to print.
- The tracking number from the label fills in when you mark the parcel shipped, and the reader gets an email with it.
- Tracking updates from EasyPost mark the parcel delivered or returned.
- Today, until label buying is on, buy postage the way you already do and type the carrier and tracking number when you mark the parcel shipped.
Limits
- Label buying is not switched on yet.
- No customs forms yet, so a label for a parcel going abroad may be refused.
- Only for copies you post yourself. Print-on-demand orders are shipped by the printer.
