What is print-on-demand?
Creating custom products on demand
Print-on-demand (or POD) is an order fulfillment method where items are printed as soon as an order is made, often, and in Printful’s case—without order minimums. With POD, you can create customized designs for a variety of products and sell them under your brand.
Your print-on-demand drop shipping delivery time is based on fulfillment time + shipping time. Printful automatically sends your orders to the nearest fulfillment center where the items are produced in 2–7 days on average.

Printful’s bulk ordering process was seamless, timely, and professional. I needed a batch of hats printed and delivered for an upcoming pop-up shop with a tight deadline. The order came on time and every hat was printed exactly how I had ordered it. I’ll definitely be placing more bulk orders from here on out!

As a full-time YouTube channel, selling merch is only a side business for us and not our top priority. Printful is so amazing and efficient, it allows us to sell quality merch to our fans, but doesn’t take up a ton of time. It’s been super easy to scale up our sales, and still keep the focus on what’s important: video! Whenever any issue has come up, it’s been handled quickly and efficiently.

My partner and I started Gay Pride Apparel in 2019 as a side business. After a year and a half, we quit our day jobs and decided to focus on our store full time. Printful has been there since day one. They have been our best partner by far.
