The alternatives, one by one

StandardLabel Our app

Shops receiving deliveries in parts, week after week

$9.99

Move to StandardLabel if receiving labels are the job and you want them exact. Ours counts from what the delivery accepted, subtracts what you already printed, and costs $19.99 at the top rather than $79.99 for the plan that has purchase orders on it.

• The only one here that keeps a record of what it has already printed
• Every feature on every plan, including the free one. Only volume differs
• Thirteen label stocks, and a calibration page for lining up a new roll
• Launched in 2026, with no review history to speak of
• It prints labels. It does not raise purchase orders, receive stock or forecast

How StandardLabel did on the test

FlochLabels

Shops that receive each delivery in one go

$9.99

The closest thing to a direct rival. It reads the same transfer data, prefills the accepted quantity, and has a good preset list and locale-aware price formatting.

• Prefills from the delivery, and its numbers matched ours to the unit
• Prices formatted for the local market, which avoids a class of reprint
• Offers the cumulative accepted total again on a part delivery, so you correct every line

AOP PO Label Printer

Labelling a delivery you expect to arrive complete

$9.99

Reads transfers created from purchase orders and prefills the ordered quantity, with a label designer, a catalogue-wide barcode health check and scan to print.

• The label designer and barcode health check are genuinely useful extras
• A free plan of 500 labels a month, and 5,000 on the $9.99 plan against our 2,000
• Its listing prefills the ordered quantity, so a short delivery prints labels for stock that did not arrive

CTS Multi Barcode Labels

Shops that want an established app and print from products

$9.99

The established generic label app, with far more reviews than any of the new entrants and a long list of printer and template options.

• Rated 4.9 from 85 reviews, where most of this list has none
• Wide template and printer support, and Liquid for formatting the text
• Its purchase order support came through a Stocky integration, and the Stocky API stopped on 31 August 2026

Receivio

Shops that want receiving and labels in one app

$19

A full receiving workflow rather than a label utility. It raises its own purchase orders, receives full or partial quantities, updates inventory, and prints labels at the end.

• Covers the whole goods-in job, not only the labels
• Receives partial quantities, and updates inventory on confirmation
• Multi-location receiving is held back for the $39 plan

StockKit

Shops replacing all of Stocky, not only the labels

$14

The closest thing on this list to Stocky itself. Its own purchase orders, receiving, suppliers, forecasting and labels, in one app.

• Replaces most of what Stocky did, in one place
• Suppliers, stocktakes and forecasting, which none of the label apps have
• Runs from $14 to $79 a month, which is a lot if you only need labels

Retail Barcode Labels

Labelling products, rather than a delivery

Free

Shopify's own free label app. It prints from your product list, which is the right tool for labelling a shelf or a new range, and the wrong one for a delivery.

• Free, and made by Shopify
• Fine for a known list of products
• Quantities do not come from a receiving event, so you count and type them

When 506 EasyScan is still the right choice

Stay on EasyScan if you want barcode workflows beyond labelling a delivery, or if the review history is what you are buying. It is rated 5.0 from 335 reviews and carries Built for Shopify, which nothing else on this list can say.

Before you switch

• Run one real delivery through both apps before you uninstall anything. Use a delivery that arrives in two parts, because that is where they differ.
• Check the number each app offers on every line against what you actually accepted, not against what you ordered.
• Print one label on the stock you use and measure it. A preset that is two millimetres out wastes a roll, and every app has its own preset list.
• Add up what you print in a normal month. The label allowance is what moves the price between plans, not the feature list.
• Keep the old app installed until a full week of deliveries has gone through the new one.
