Stocky is shutting down on August 31, 2026 — keep printing barcode labels from your POs

LabelCraft - barcode labels for Shopify that print at exactly the size you set.

EN · FR · DE · ES

The guarantees behind every label

Exact to ±0.1 mm

Every label prints at the size you set - measured, not approximate.

Never a silent failure

Overflow or a missing barcode always raises a visible warning before you print.

Whole-dot barcodes

Modules snap to your printer's dots, so codes stay crisp and scan first time.

Your barcodes, untouched

We never overwrite or reassign a product's existing barcode.

Try it now - no install needed

Paste your Stocky (or any supplier) CSV export and instantly see which barcodes will scan, which are missing or invalid, and what your labels will look like at real size. Free, no sign-up.

Preview your Stocky labels

Shopify has announced that Stocky will be retired on August 31, 2026. On that date Stocky and all of its APIs stop working, and Shopify steers merchants toward native Transfers for receiving and inventory. If you currently rely on Stocky to print barcode labels for the items on your purchase orders, you need a plan before the deadline — and that's exactly what this page is for. LabelCraft prints labels that actually scan from Shopify's native Purchase Orders (received via Transfers), from Stocky exports, and from any other PO app's CSV.

Install free — 200 labels per month →

LabelCraft is free for up to 200 labels per month. Pro is $9.99/mo with a 14-day trial when you need higher volume. Every label is rendered to your exact stock size, with a ±0.1 mm dimension promise so what you measure on paper is what we drew — no silent scaling, no guesswork at the printer.

What stops working on August 31, 2026

It's worth being clear about what the shutdown actually means, because some of it is easy to miss until it's too late:

Your Stocky data does not migrate automatically. Nothing moves to native Transfers on its own — you are responsible for getting what you need out before the cut-off.
Supplier data cannot be exported from Stocky. The supplier records you built up over the years can't be pulled out, so plan to recreate the pieces you depend on elsewhere.
PO label printing inside Stocky goes away. The ability to print barcode labels for the items on a purchase order disappears with the rest of the app — this is the gap LabelCraft fills.

Your migration checklist before August 31, 2026

Work through these steps now rather than in the final week. They're ordered so each one sets up the next, and they leave you printing labels without interruption when Stocky goes dark.

Export your POs and stocktakes from Stocky today. Download every purchase order, receiving record, and stocktake you might need as a reference — once the deadline passes there is no way back in.
Confirm your catalog barcodes are valid. Run a Barcode check over your products so you find blanks, duplicates, and malformed codes before they reach a label.
Install LabelCraft. It's free for 200 labels a month, so you can get set up and tested well ahead of the deadline at no cost.
Do a test print. Print a sheet or a roll on your actual hardware and verify the dimensions, the barcode, and the scan before you rely on it for a real delivery.
Switch your receiving to native Transfers + LabelCraft. Move new purchase orders into Shopify Transfers and let LabelCraft handle the labels, so you're fully off Stocky before it shuts down.

Keep printing labels the moment stock arrives

LabelCraft's "Receive & label" feature reads your native Shopify Transfers shipments directly. It takes the accepted quantity on each line, builds the print job for you, and renders exact-size labels — so the labels go on the products as soon as the box is open, no manual counting or copying.

When you'd rather work from paper, "Print from a list" is the on-ramp: paste or upload a supplier slip or a PO CSV, and LabelCraft matches each row to your catalog by SKU or by barcode/UPC. Matching is exact and never guessed — anything it can't match with confidence lands in an Exceptions panel for you to resolve, so nothing wrong slips onto a label.

Generate valid barcodes for items that arrive without one

Some items show up with no barcode at all. LabelCraft's one-click "Generate missing barcodes" fills the gaps: it creates a real GTIN-13 when you've set a GS1 prefix in Settings, or a unique internal Code 128 otherwise. It never overwrites a barcode you already have. See our GS1 barcode guide for how to set up your prefix.
