Hi @mijustin, we use both direct to garment and screen printing - depends on your order characteristics (# of colors and quantity). We have state-of-the-art machines for both processes, so no matter what, you're guaranteed to love your products! Interested in embroidery? We can enable that as well even though it's not part of the web experience yet (just chat in to one of our reps - they're standing by to assist you.)
@mijustin Sadly no API yet, but that's one of the top features we are working on. We want to automate as much of the process for you as possible, including integrating with your e-commerce stores or CRM systems, so sending out swag is always as simple as a click of a button!
Would really suggest adding in what file types you accept as well as maybe a template file you can download. It's not clear on first pass what the best file to upload is.
We launched Teespring in 2012 with one goal: Let people create and sell high-quality products they could be proud of. Since then, we’ve shipped tens of millions of products with an average quality score of over 9/10.
But one request we've heard over and over is “I like Teespring and need to print shirts for X, how do I order directly?”. Today, we have an answer: Teespring Direct. We’d love to become the go-to place for ordering custom products, whether it be for your company or printing a funny one-off for a friend’s birthday.
Why choose us?
*We guarantee you’ll love the quality, or we’ll refund/replace your order.*
Because we support artists like Beyonce and Justin Timberlake, we’ve had to put a huge focus on quality. We run our own printing facility out of Kentucky with the highest quality machines and inks in the business.
*No minimums.*
On Teespring there are no minimums. You can customize and buy one shirt for ~$14, or buy 100 for ~$8, and we maintain our quality standard throughout.
A small team has been working on Teespring Direct for a couple of months and we know we have a little further to go (more products, faster shipping, and more). That being said, we <3 the PH community and wanted to announce here first. We’ll be on all day, so don’t hesitate to send feedback or ask questions, thanks!
@walkerteespring this is perfect. I remember running a campaign on your site and then buying up all the shirts for my employees just because I wanted Teespring quality 😂 I'm guessing I wasn't the only one
Really looks great - the wizard is smooth and I genuinely love the ability to get an actionable quantity-based quote in under a minute. I've already used it a few times in campaign planning for @storkstand.
Thanks a lot @kevinnatanzon! Yes, we have some specific integrations in mind as a first step, and I'd also be curious what kinds of API functionality or products you’d want to use? Thanks for the feedback!
@tonystaehelin We have over 1 M users with all the apps we've developed with @betalabs. We've tested too many monetization strategies for free apps. Ecommerce customized for the content of the app is the best so far. It performs 20X better than ads.
Thanks a lot @rafifyalda! For international shipping, definitely hit us up via chat. Although we haven't enabled EU fulfillment in the self-serve flow yet , we actually have print facilities in the EU, so we can offer great rates across Europe. Thanks again!
Hey @andrewett - thanks for checking out Teespring Direct! The most established competitor is probably CustomInk. The vision for Teespring Direct is to offer the most simplicity, greatest functionality, and highest quality of any platform. We’ve still got a ways to go on that journey, but we hope you can already see that our ordering experience is one of the simplest out there.
Simplicity: we’ve started by enabling things like no minimums and clear pricing ($15 incl. shipping for a custom tee!), and there’s a lot more in the pipeline to make ordering custom products easier and more fun.
Functionality: we started with the basics, but operating our own print facility enables features like rush shipping, individual fulfillment & drop-shipping, custom inserts, private labeling, and more. (PS: If you’re curious about our print facility, check it out here: https://youtu.be/OXSxPKC0bzE)
High-Quality: Walker’s already stressed our commitment to quality and how those high standards lead us to be trusted by some of the biggest names in sports, entertainment, and business - including great companies in this community!
Our team is working at full speed to roll out these improvements, but in the meantime, there’s a lot we can already enable behind the scenes - need rush shipping? other products? individual fulfillment? (Community managers stop spending your time sending out swag!) Just let us know via live chat, comment, or email (direct-cs@teespring.com) and we’ll set you up!
Hi @anderiep! Yes we do - we ship to over 150 countries every day. Thanks for checking out the site and don't hesitate to chat in if you have more questions about shipping.
@tehhero_sg thanks for checking out the site! We're currently running a Free Shipping promotion on all orders in the US - the coupon is automatically applied at checkout. We're happy to offer a discount on international shipping too, just contact us in the live chat. Also, we automatically offer a 10% discount on orders over 50 units and a 20% discount on orders over 100 units. Thanks again!
Really easy to use but the prices are a lot higher than expected when you start buying more than just a few tees. It seems especially high for simple designs that are just one color / one screen
@w_zhou Thanks for checking out the site and for the support! I'm sorry the pricing of your order was more expensive than you expected. Our pricing is generally very competitive and in many cases cheaper than most top competitors. E.g 150 Hanes tees with a 2-color print is $6.39/unit on Teespring and over $7.00 on CustomInk. Please let us know though (direct-cs@teespring.com) if you see another top provider offering a better price on a certain product so we can look into adjusting that. We're also able to offer additional discounts on very large orders, just chat in to our Live Chat. Note: there are unfortunately a ton of low quality providers in the industry who price really low because they ship out total cr@p to make a quick buck. While we're committed to making our products as affordable as possible, we maintain the highest quality standards and believe customer satisfaction is the key to building a long-term business.
I once designed a beautiful tee but had problems selling it to my local fans because Teespring didn't ship to Nigeria. Is the shipping options different with Teespring Direct?
I've used Teespring a bunch and can attest to the great experience and quality of product. For ladies, we all know how crazy wrong the sizing can be for women's tee's. Not so with Teespring. A great fit and a flattering cut.
Thanks @mspseudolus, we appreciate the kinds words! The Bella Flowy tank is our top-selling women's item right now - the quality scores for it are off the charts!
