General questions
Can we use a different design for each product variant?
This may seem obvious, but it's an option rarely available on print on demand platforms. You can use multiple visuals thanks to our fabulous merge tool. Everything is explained in detail in this article . For example, you could add a white design on the black variant of the t-shirt and add the same design in black on the white color t-shirt. Isn't that amazing?Few readersDo you deliver to relay points?
We don't use this delivery method, simply for reasons of speed and security: we've always preferred letterbox delivery for our users, which is far more efficient than anything else. This avoids the hassle of unclaimed parcels.Few readersFor my customers, who ships orders ?
That's the great thing: for your customer, you're the one who shipped the order. They won't have any information about TPOP - we ship in your name, under your brand. The packing slip bears your name, logo and address, and we even print your logo on the parcel. All notifications received by your customer also bear your brand name.Few readersWhich carriers do you use?
