How to Print Packing Slips on Shopify — Free App + Complete Guide

Technically yes. Shopify lets you print a basic order summary from the order detail page. But it is a plain, unbranded document with no logo, no custom fields and no way to print multiple orders at once. For any serious fulfillment operation, it falls short almost immediately.

If you ship more than a handful of orders a day, you need a dedicated Shopify packing slip app — one that puts your logo and brand colours on every slip, supports custom fields like gift messages, SKUs and barcodes, and lets you bulk-print dozens or hundreds of orders into a single PDF.

Search the Shopify App Store for packing slips and you will find dozens of options — most charging $10 to $20 per month, per feature. Add bulk fulfillment, branded tracking and WhatsApp order alerts and you are easily spending $50 or more every month across several separate apps, each with its own dashboard and login.

This is exactly the gap PackSlip was built to close. Instead of stacking single-purpose paid apps, it bundles the entire post-purchase workflow into one free app that lives inside your Shopify admin.

PackSlip is a free Shopify app that bundles 34 fulfillment and post-purchase modules into a single clean dashboard inside your Shopify admin. No extra logins, no separate subscriptions and no credit card required — ever.

The core modules include branded packing slips, bulk fulfillment via CSV, a branded order-tracking page on your own domain, automated WhatsApp and email shipping alerts, 3PL-ready CSV and XLSX order exports, and storefront tools such as product reviews, abandoned-cart recovery, back-in-stock alerts and trust badges. All 34 modules are completely free, with no usage limits or premium tier.

PackSlip is built and maintained by ARS Developer Ltd, a UK-registered software company (Co. No. 17039150) based in Stoke-on-Trent. It connects to Shopify through the official Shopify API only, does not sell data and is fully GDPR ready. You can install it from packslip.arsdeveloper.co.uk.

Step 1 — Install PackSlip free. Visit packslip.arsdeveloper.co.uk and click Install Free on Shopify. You are taken to the Shopify App Store to confirm. No credit card is requested at any stage.

Step 2 — Open your dashboard. Once installed, PackSlip appears directly inside your Shopify admin and all 34 modules unlock immediately — no trial, no paywall and no feature gating.

Step 3 — Set up your template. Open the Packing Slips module, upload your logo, set your brand colour and choose which fields to show: product name, SKU, quantity, gift note, barcode and more. The template is saved and applied to every future print job automatically.

Step 4 — Print single or bulk orders. For one order, open it and click the PackSlip action to download a branded PDF. To print in bulk, select multiple orders, open the bulk print view and download a single combined PDF of every slip — no page limits, no order caps.

If your courier or 3PL returns tracking numbers in a spreadsheet, PackSlip's bulk fulfillment module removes hours of manual copy-and-paste every day.

Export your pending orders from Shopify as a CSV, add the tracking numbers from your courier, then upload the completed CSV into PackSlip. It marks every order as fulfilled in Shopify and triggers the shipping-notification email to each customer automatically. For dropshipping and print-on-demand stores processing 50 to 500 orders a day, this single module alone is worth the install.

The default Shopify notification sends customers to a generic courier website. PackSlip replaces that with a fully branded tracking page on your own domain — a visual progress bar, a live event timeline, your logo and a recommended-products section — so customers stay on your store, not a courier site.

On top of that, PackSlip sends automated WhatsApp and email messages at every stage: order confirmed, shipment dispatched with a tracking link, and delivery confirmed. For merchants serving customers who prefer WhatsApp, this dramatically reduces the volume of where-is-my-order support tickets.

PackSlip is completely free. All 34 modules are available with no usage limits, no order caps and no premium tier.

Bought separately, the same functionality is expensive: packing-slip printing is around $10/month, branded order tracking around $12/month, a bulk fulfillment tool around $15/month and WhatsApp or email alerts around $19/month — roughly $56 every month across four different apps. With PackSlip the total is $0.

It suits dropshipping stores handling bulk tracking CSVs, print-on-demand brands shipping internationally, fashion and lifestyle brands that want on-brand slips, and any growing Shopify store currently paying for several apps to do what one free app handles.
