I want to hide my store address from absolutely everything and everyone because it’s my personal home address. The Settings tag in Shopify admin has a section for store address but it says…
Store address
This address will appear on your invoices. You can edit the address used to calculate shipping rates in your shipping settings
Thank you for your response to this matter. This information will make or break whether I continue moving forward with Shopify. Just so I am clear… There is absolutely no way to avoid making our personal address and phone numbers public to our customers?
I used a Google Voice to hide my phone number. You get a free Google Voice number which will route calls to your real number. Havent figured out address situation yet. Might just have to set up a PO box
I too would like to know if this could be hidden. I personally have a protective order against someone and do not wish for my home address to be displayed.
I literally created this community account JUST to clear up what has been said here.
Your street address will be printed on your invoices from Shopify, not printed on invoices you might send to your customers! I had this same concern. Not to worry, your address will not be leaked.
Just a suggestion… perhaps you could use your accountant’s postal address.
I mean… and I’m not happy about it… it looks like we’re all stuck with having to use an address. So why not use your accountant’s address and avoid having to pay for a PO box that you’ll probably (hopefully) never use.
In my case we’re talking drop shipping - I’m not in the same country as either my customers or suppliers.
Might need to let the accountant know though. Then again… I don’t anticipate EVER getting mail there.
hi there im new here and I also have been researching how to hide my address from invoices and since I have come to conclusion that I cannot here is the alternative that I have found helpful. I recently searched what I can do about my personal address and the answer I have found is to rent a virtual address that I can use on my business. It will show on the statements for customers but of course you have to make it your default address. another upside to renting a virtual address is that they flush out junk mail at your request, they can recycle it for you at your request and they will forward you any packages or documents so if a customer returns their items to you they will be basically re-routed to you. I hope that helps.
I used: ipostal1.com it is starting subscription at 9.99 a month and there are other subscriptions versions you can get. Be sure to read through the description im not a professional from that company just a store owner like yourself
I’m also trying to do the same thing. I just rented a PO box hoping this would cure the issue, but I didn’t realize this would prevent me from shipping via UPS. I can’t seem to find a work around. I spoke with a Shopify rep through chat yesterday who recommend the ShipRobot app, but I can’t tell that is the solution I need either.
In Shopify, there is no option to change the “from address” on the shipping label or any other document. As others have suggested, one of the solutions you can try is to use a P.O Box address but, that may create issues with returns.
May I know which carrier you are using to ship? If you are using FedEx, the Multi Carrier Shipping Label app can help you solve this. With the app, you get a separate option to change the address on the shipping label according to your requirement. As of now, this feature is available only for FedEx. For other carriers, the feature integration is under development.
