Etsy

Etsy lets you set up your shipping methods in advance through its shipping settings.

These define how you’ll ship your item — whether you’ll use calculated shipping (Etsy’s prepaid labels) or set fixed-rate shipping yourself.

Before listing to Etsy through Crosslist, make sure you’ve set up your shipping settings in Etsy.

Based on your Crosslist shipping profiles, Crosslist will automatically apply the first matching Etsy profile of the corresponding type:

  • If you select Prepaid shipping, we’ll apply the first calculated profile
  • If you select Ship yourself, we’ll apply the first fixed-price profile

Prepaid shipping

This option corresponds to calculated shipping on Etsy.

Etsy provides a prepaid shipping label at a discounted rate, based on the package details you provide.

To use this method, you’ll need to enter the package’s weight and dimensions in the Crosslist listing form:

Shipping weight and dimensions

Crosslist will then apply the first eligible calculated shipping profile from your Etsy account.

Ship yourself

This option corresponds to fixed-price shipping on Etsy.

You’ll handle the shipping yourself and set the rates ahead of time in Etsy.

When you select Ship yourself in Crosslist, we’ll apply the first fixed-price profile from your Etsy shipping profiles.

Since your shipping prices are already defined in Etsy, there’s no need to enter them again in the Crosslist form.

We plan to support the ability to select different Etsy shipping profiles per listing in the future.

INFO

You can configure domestic and worldwide shipping, offer free shipping, and set preferred carriers directly in your Etsy shipping profiles.

You can also set default weight and dimensions in your Crosslist shipping profiles.
