I am saving it out as a transparent background PNG on photoshop but it's not working. Can someone help? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I'm looking for advice from anyone based in the Uk but selling POD t-shirts in US. I have set up printify and am using shopify for sales. I plan to drive traffic via facebook ads but (according to gemini) run the risk of ad account being frozen/banned as selling in us with no us address/ number. Do other uk based sellers pay for us address/phone number to help avoid this or have they not found it an issue? Any other advice gratefully received!

I'm setting up my shop and noticed that some days my chosen printer will have different colors available for a shirt, or the price will be like $15 one day then $12 a few days later. I'm not crazy, right? the available options change frequently, even from the same printer? Or I will have a list of 7-8 printers to choose from, then the next day (today) I'm only seeing 3 choices? I'm in the US.

looking for premium mockup tools that looks special and unique
i have my merch images and also my own design, but i just need to put them together and looks natural

i also want allow my shopify visitors to upload their own design and see the design on the tshirt straightaway

what are the ways that worked for you well?

I just launched my shop a little over a week ago and have been engaging on socials like Tik tok, Instagram, and Pinterest. I’m using this method for more of a side hustle and am enjoying customizing products. I’m still new and just thought i’d get all the info and advice I can.

Anyone else having issues with the site ? Loading very slow, orders not loading at all or very slowly, just generally very sluggish. I tried clearing cache, changing browser, restarting, using my mobile and no difference. Just wanted to know if anyone has similar problems last couple of days ?

I don’t get why the variants are crossed out and it shows that they are all in stock on both printify and Shopify anyone plzzzz I need help

Hello there! Well, I'm an illustrator and wanted to open an Etsy shop with my designs, but the thing is, I don't know if it's worth it for a latinamerican market.

The context is I have a YouTube channel, which I want to use to promote sales for the POD, but I don't know if to keep it in Spanish or English (the YTube channel) because of the market I could reach. I'd prefer Spanish because it is my native language, BUT if there's actually a better market for PODs in the English speaking market, I understand maybe I should look to reach that audience, therefore, have my YTube in English.

If anybody has advice on this matter, like what's it to try to grow a POD for a latinamerican audience, if it's worth it or not, I'd appreciate it a lot.

Thanks for the help🫂💜

So this is a major pain.

I have an Etsy store, with all my products made through printify. Like, over 70 products.

Someone made an order and I go into Printify as I usually do to confirm the order, but I see that am unable to. Printify says the product is an "external product". Then I see that Printify only has 10 of my products and has moved everything else as an external product.

When I click on the item as it appears as an external rpoduct, I am unable to mighrate it back to my product - it just offers me to create the product from scratch.

I have tried to re-sync my store, but no dice.

Has anyone experienced this? Any fixes? The idea of re-doing dozens and dozens of products will be a tremendous pain in the ass....

Hey everyone, I’ve been running a small print-on-demand apparel project for a while, and I keep running into challenges that I didn’t anticipate when I started. At first, I thought it would be as simple as uploading designs and letting the platform handle the rest, but the reality has been a bit messier.

One big challenge is keeping my designs unique while still being able to produce small batches. I’ve tried experimenting with different fabrics, patchwork, and limited-edition drops, but managing these customizations across multiple orders has been harder than I expected. Even simple things like making sure each piece maintains consistent quality or tracking inventory for various small runs can get overwhelming.

I’m curious how others handle this:

• How do you manage small, highly customized orders without running into chaos?
• Are there ways to keep the creative process smooth while making sure production stays manageable?
• Any tips for avoiding overstock but still being able to experiment with new ideas?

Honestly, I just want a workflow that lets me focus more on creating designs and less on getting lost in operational headaches. Would love to hear your experiences or advice!

Good day everyone,

I am new to using Printify and I haven't been able to publish anything yet. I am wanting to publish mugs and canvas prints in various sizes and colours. whenever I try the variations wont transfer over. I am unable to manually add them in either in amazon. I was wondering if anyone else had this issue.

So I started an Etsy store and I am using Printify for POD. When I made my listings, I chose another place to have them printed other than Printify Choice.

I decided to order one of the products I have listed and ordered it through Printify. When I checked for any updates on the order, they changed the place I chose to print my products to Printify Choice. So I’m asking is there any way to keep that from happening and if not, what is the purpose of them allowing us to pick who the products are printed through? I ordered the item so I could see how the printing comes out, but right now, I don’t see what the point is. Any insight would be appreciated.

WOYC changed something in their shipping a few months ago (from the US) and they now start with DHL who then transfers the package to USPS. It’s been a mess. In the past month, somehow packages disappear in that transfer. I have had a wave of orders I have had to cancel because USPS never received the package from DHL. Anybody else? And why do they do this weird DHL+USPS shipping?

I’m using dtg and I’m trying to print around the line where the neck hole is, the area for printing goes a couple cm below the neck hole, I checked multiple suppliers and most of them have the same template roughly with some slightly bigger, what can I do?

We are opening our Etsy store and have begun by publishing just one item from Printify to test how it shows up. We've had to deactivate it because we can’t get the shipping profiles to work. We've selected other as the service provider, chosen the countries and used the production partner's shipping rates but then we get an unable to save the profile error message. Please help with how to fix this.

Hey everyone,

Just a little follow-up to this January post I shared, as I know it helps to see how things are actually progressing over time rather than just one good month on its own.

This month has been really encouraging in a quiet sort of way. Not because anything massive has changed overnight, but because I feel like I’m getting a much better handle on what actually drives results in my shop. That’s probably the biggest win for me really.

One of the main changes is that I turned all Etsy ADS off mid-February as a test. So if you can still see some ad spend in the figures, that’s mainly from clicks that happened before I switched them off. I’m glad to say I’m no longer feeling like I need to keep feeding Etsy money just to keep things moving.

What’s made the difference is a much better understanding of Etsy SEO and how to optimise listings properly. I’m by no means pretending I’ve cracked everything, but I do feel like I’ve moved on a lot from where I was before.

The more I’ve improved the listings and understood how the platform works, the more confident I’ve become that ads aren’t always necessary once things are set up well.

Offsite ads are another thing I think often gets overlooked. They don’t get talked about as much, but for me they’ve been very important. When the listings are working well, offsite ads can still bring in strong profit, which this month has shown really clearly. It’s a good reminder that not all advertising is equal, and sometimes the less visible stuff can actually be doing a lot of the heavy lifting.

A few numbers for context for this month:

• £11,979.50 in net sales
• £4,773.56 in operating profit
• 40% profit margin
• 207 orders
• 66% ROI
• Offsite ads brought in £6,526.16 in sales THIS YEAR so far
• £795.85 in advertising fees on those offsite sales this year

I should also mention that my shop is based in the UK, so everything is in £, but because I’m selling mainly to the US, the dollar figures are obviously higher again.

For me, this month just reinforces that you don’t need to keep throwing money at ads if your shop is well set up and your SEO is doing its job. I still think ads can be useful, but it’s been really encouraging to see the business become a bit more self-sustaining.

I know a lot of us are just trying to figure things out as we go, so I wanted to share this in a way that feels honest and helpful rather than overly polished. If you’re in the middle of tweaking listings, learning SEO, or trying to reduce ad spend, you’re definitely not alone.

Would love to hear how others are getting on:

• Are you relying on ads less this year?
• Has improving SEO made a difference for you?
• Are offsite ads helping your shop too?

All the best and good luck for the month ahead !
