What’s Print on Demand?

Your idea, your brand, our fulfilment

Print on Demand (POD) is an eCommerce business model that allows you to sell custom products with your own designs. From apparel to home decor, each item is made only after a customer places an order, so there are no minimums. It’s one of the smartest and lowest-risk ways to launch an online business in Canada.

Frequently asked questions for Canadian sellers

Absolutely. By eliminating inventory costs, you can achieve healthy profit margins. With local fulfilment, you also save on shipping costs, which helps your bottom line.

No. Because we fulfil and ship orders for Canadian customers from our facility in Ontario, there are no customs or duty fees.

As a business owner, you’re responsible for your own taxes. You'll need to determine if and when you need to register for a GST/HST number with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and collect sales tax from your customers. We always recommend consulting with a local tax professional.

Most of our apparel products are fulfilled in 2 to 5 business days at our Canadian facility. After that, standard shipping times within Canada apply.

Returns are sent back to our Canadian facility. Unclaimed returns are donated to local charities.

To find a niche for your POD business, focus on your passions, research market trends, and identify gaps in the market. Narrow down your target audience and test your ideas to ensure they resonate. A strong niche helps you stand out and attract the right customers. 

Check out our article on How to Find an Ecommerce Niche for Your Online Store to find out more.

 

Your income depends on product demand, competitive pricing, and effective marketing efforts. Many sellers earn between a few hundred to several thousand dollars per month, but top sellers can make even more. You’ll need to factor in fulfillment costs to set profitable prices. Successful sellers rely on strong branding, quality designs, and targeted advertising.
