If you need to cancel a shipment – whether it’s because your customer changed their mind or you made an error in processing – you can do so right from within your LɅBL account. Postage misprints and unused mail pieces with LɅBL addressed.

In order to void a label, a refund request must be submitted. Please follow the instructions below. These instructions are specific for USPS shipments, scroll to the bottom of this page to view other carrier instructions. 

From the shipments page, select the label you need to void and click "Void". 

Read the instructions before continuing, when you are sure you want to cancel a shipment click  "Continue with Void".

Once you click “Continue with Void”, the request will be submitted to the carrier and you will receive a message on whether the request was accepted. Your shipment will then be moved to the shipments page under the voided tab.  The shipment status will have a refund requested status until the refund has been approved by the carrier and the money has been credited.

Once the carrier completes the refund (which normally takes 2 weeks), the resulting amount will be credited to your LABL meter within 14 days. You can view any credits back to your shipping meter on the analytics page under transaction history.
