Can I edit a label I've already purchased?

There's no way to change the address after you've bought a label; you'll need to refund the label and create a new one

You can't edit a label once you've purchased it on Pirate Ship

  • Labels can't be edited after you buy them: There is no way to edit labels you've already created.

    • Once you've bought a label, it is valid postage, and any changes to the label might make the postage you paid for the wrong amount.

  • Request refunds for labels that need edits: If you've made a mistake and need to change the address, weight, dimensions, or anything else, the only option is to request a refund from USPS or UPS for that label and start over.

Do NOT use refunded labels

  • Refunded labels are no longer valid: If you refund a label and find you still need it, you should still discard that label and create a new one. Handing a refunded label to a carrier may result in your package being disposed of, since that label is technically no longer considered valid postage 🙈
