How to Void a USPS Shipping Label (and Get a Refund)

You can void a USPS shipping label and get a postage refund if the label hasn't been scanned yet. Voiding is usually free but not automatic — you have to request it within the 30-day window from purchase.

Step-by-step

  1. 1

    Go to Click-N-Ship (or source platform)

    If you bought via USPS.com, sign in and go to Shipping History. If via eBay/Etsy, use their label management interface.

  2. 2

    Select the label

    Find the unused label. Labels marked 'Used' (already scanned) cannot be voided — only unused labels qualify.

  3. 3

    Click Refund Request

    Select 'Refund' or 'Void and Refund'. Confirm you want to void the label.

  4. 4

    Wait for approval

    USPS reviews refund requests within 10-14 business days. If approved, postage refunds to your original payment method.

Good to know

  • Refund window: 30 days from label purchase. After that, no refund possible.
  • Already-scanned labels cannot be voided. If you scanned and changed your mind, you must let the package travel or have it returned.
  • Some third-party tools auto-refund unused labels after a specific window (e.g. Pirate Ship auto-refunds after 30 days).
