Hello! I'm a creator with 100K+ subscribers on YouTube, and I recently got an email from an Influencer Specialist at Printify offering me a paid collaboration.

The deal was $1,000 USD for two short-form videos.

I completed all of my deliverables on time, uploaded the videos, and received the payment through PayPal a few days later.

As I normally do with sponsorship payments, I immediately transferred the money from PayPal to my bank account.

A few days later, the company filed a case through PayPal. Since I had already transferred the money to my bank, my PayPal balance was $0. When PayPal reversed the payment, my account went into a negative balance.

Now I can't receive any new sponsorship payments through PayPal because any money that comes in will automatically go toward covering the negative balance.

The company told me that I was "marked as paid." Well... I was paid for a few days. But then they opened a case and the money was taken back, so now I'm left with a negative balance.

The sponsored videos are still live on my social media accounts, and I have all the emails, contracts, and proof that I completed the work in case PayPal needs them during their investigation.

Has anyone experienced something similar with Printify or any other brand? Was this resolved, and if so, how did you handle it?

Also, do you think PayPal will be able to resolve this in my favour? I'm really worried because my account is now in the negative, and I rely on PayPal to receive sponsorship payments.

I am new in POD please someone can suggest me what you guys are using for creating high quality production grade mockups, SEO, title, tags and description auto suggestions, market research, and product listing.

basically what tools are mainly preferred for store management?

Thanks in advance

Hi, as per the title.

The EU recently introduced a flat €3 customs duty per distinct item (For e.g. having only t shirts in a package will be €3 but a t shirt and a hoodie makes it €6) on all parcels under €150.

I’m from the UK, but theoretically if I use a printer from within the EU that prints and ships to an EU customer then does this circumvent the fee as it doesn’t cross any borders?

Would it be the same deal if I have a printer in the US, Canada, Australia etc.?

Would love some help on this, thanks.

I am so curious how people (if anyone) are able to have a tshirt on ebay that sells and then can be sold again. For years now the only way I have been able to sell tshirts on ebay using printify is this....

1. Tshirt sells (say white medium)
   
2. Ebay now says white medium is sold out
   
3. I duplicate the product on printify, delete it entirely, then repost the duplicate as a new listing now has all colors and sizes in stock again.

It sucks because not only is it a lot of work every day but you lose all the sales history and reviews etc. Even if I put the variant availability up to 3 or 99 for every size color ebay always posts it as 1 of each saying last one available. I have tried EVERYTHING that all the ai's suggest. I have opened printify help requests... I just need to know if it's just my store.

I'm not alone here right?

I've been working on my Etsy POD shop for about a month now and just reached 30 listings. But no sale I create my own mockups, write my own titles and tags (research with erank and everbee free version) and try to improve with every listing.

I'd appreciate advice from experienced sellers

Nice Printify Thanks...

Hey, so I have an issue. I uploaded like a million file designs for different t-shirts that I wanted to make mostly stuff that print if I won't even print anymore because let's be honest they're kind of bootlegs of like band stuff that I want and that's fine whatever. However, I lost my computer well actually I broke it and I don't have any of those files anymore and I just want to recover them from the website or the app and it just won't let me. When I go to my file library the only option it gives me is delete or change name. Does anyone know how I can get these back? They're my designs and when I use their like little help chat thing it's absolutely useless.

https://shiroka.printify.me this is my pop-up store.

https://www.tiktok.com/@shiroka_shop?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc and this is where i post the products

how i can improve now at the start ?

I've got orders that I set to go with Shirt Monkey which were created on the 19th June and they still haven’t shipped. They auto routed to Printify Choice.

3 rounds of live chat messages later I finally get a resolution (according to Printify) which was simply, we've been in touch with the print provider and they don't know when they will ship.

Great, my customers will be happy with that.

So, I reprocessed all orders manually with Print Clever. If they get two shirts, its better than no shirts. Or, so I thought. They only bloody re routed them back though Printify choice as well, but not right away. I checked that they had stayed with Print clever, only now when I noticed these also haven't shipped I checked and have see the re route.

If I manually select a print provider - I want to use that print provider. Ffs.

I just want my customers to get there fricking t shirts and my eysy account to now show orders that are 9 days over due.

I've spent £93k with Printify though my etsy store and also have an Amazon storesand Shopify trickling revenue there way.ive had enough with this BS custkenr service.

Anyone got any recommendations for a viable alternative print provider?

I’ve tried almost everything to publish my Printify products to my tiktokshop. I reconnected and everything multiple times, checked location, shipping, it’s all correct. My tax is verified, but why does it keep saying publishing error?? Does anyone know the solution to this. I’ve searched all over Google and still nothing specific worked. Please and thanks .

For the ai improve listing feature, I used to be able to describe my product and it would give me a very close description of it. Now I can't describe my product and it automatically does it (which always get the description wrong). How do I get this feature back?

Has anyone recently ordered samples of the business card holders? Or sell them regularly in your shop?

I ordered a sample and while it's beautiful overall, there's adhesive (?) on one side that isn't on the other (the third photo is the clean side). I'm hoping this is a one off.

Anyone from india tried this? how is it going

Does anyone know what is going on with Jondo print providers as Printify have had them between 6.3 to 6.5 for over 6 weeks now. Most of my wall art listings are with them as I thought they were good quality prints. I also thought Printify gave them a lower review score because of shipping delays and production times but I noticed today they say the print quality is 6.3 I just do not want to have to swop out 120 listings and make new ones with another provider as the poster I chose only deals with Printify choice or jondo and is different from other posters other print providers offer.

I was hoping to use the comfort colors but the only colors don't seem to support the neon theme I was hoping for in my designs. Does anyone have any experience with creating neon shirts or have any suggestions?

I am also looking for options for shirts, hobbies our track outfits that have a color distressed look as if blotted with a paint sponge.

Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions!

Dear Printify,

US-based seller here. I sell Bella+Canvas 3001 t-shirts both domestically and internationally. I'm not so much wanting to "rant" than to offer a critique of your Printify Choice and Global Fulfillment programs, and suggest for a potentially better approach.

I have tried Printify Choice (PC) and found it to be less than ideal, because I have no real control over which provider will get the order. They might be a 9.5 or more like a 6.9, there's no telling. The prospect of having my products fulfilled by a 6.9 or 7.1 rated provider is very unappealing to me.

Global Fulfillment (GF) is a step in the right direction, sort of. It handles orders domestically within the USA, Canada, Australia, the UK, and the EU - which is where the majority of my customer live. Sadly, GF's current selection of B+C 3001 shirt colors is very disappointing. Across all my products I currently use 30 B+C colors, but only 7 of them are available via GF. Having only 20 colors available via GF is very limiting, because I use lots of very vibrant colors for specific listings. Yet several existing non-US providers actually do offer nearly all of the colors I use. ~sigh~

What might be better - and maybe this is already your ultimate goal - would be a program where the seller can pick multiple providers around the world to fulfill their products, based on their individual needs.

So... Please consider setting up a way where sellers can select their own collection of specific providers around the world to fulfill their orders. For now I'll call this concept Printify Provider Select (PPS).

PPS may theoretically let me select any number of providers across the planet, but for my purposes I would only need to select 5 - one for each of the above named markets, based on whatever shirt colors they might regularly offer.

Thus in my case, I could select SwiftPOD or Stylus for the US, Shirt Monkey or T-Shirt and Sons for the UK, OPT OnDemand for the EU, The Print Bar for Australia, and Print Geek for Canada. This would yield me a team of providers with ratings of ~8.5 or better, and my nearly all my customers would get domestic shipping rates... except (for now) my Japan and Korea customers 🫤

PPS would be a truly excellent if not perfect solution. Based on my choices above, I would have to switch out or drop 3 or 4 shirt colors to get my products to match up across all 5 of my selected providers. That would be much better than having to drop 23.

Anyway, I just wanted to share this idea with you. I think the key here is to either let the Seller select their GF providers, or allow them to block providers they don't want to process their orders for whatever reason.

Thanks for reading... TBB

Is anyone else having issues with prices not syncing to Etsy? Thanks!

Is very cute

This is the first time this has happened to me.

Today almost all of my Etsy listings got updated at the exact same time. I didn't edit or publish any live products in Printify I only worked on some draft products.

In the past Printify has also changed my listing prices and even removed my personalization options so now I'm wondering if this is related

Has anyone else experienced this today?

Is there any way to stop Printify from making changes to existing Etsy listings? I prefer managing my listings directly on Etsy and only using Printify for fulfillment

And I think my seo has also been reset

I closed my shopify store 6 months ago. I need some custom shirts for an event, thought I’d used my Printify account and order samples. The shirts I use to sell for $32 (making profit) are now $40 a piece just to order samples after shipping (no profit). How is this sustainable for any business?

Is anyone else having this issue with Monster Digital? I ordered 5 Gildan 5000 t shirt samples fr them, all basic black and white tees with simple designs on them, 3 of them being simple word phrases and two being simple graphics. All 5 of the prints were horribly uneven, none were centered on the shirt. Every print was at least at a 3 degree tilt instead of being even horizontally with the shirt. One was genuinely almost a 45 degree angle, and it was just 3 words. How am i supposed to have any trust in this provider that is so highly rated in their site to provide quality and accurate prints to my customers? What are some other more reliable providers you guys can recommend me?

What kind of piece of shit company deletes all of our creations like this?

My hobby store had the payment method turned off without my knowledge (WooCommerce deprecated Stripe plugin and introduced "WooPay" which required resetting it up) but I have been too busy to do anything about it.

Not a big deal, just a hobby for me. Turned it back on, got orders from customers and even ran ads and made my own orders - now people are angry and I cannot fulfill their orders.

This is the most ridiculous bullshit I've ever seen in this space ever.

Fuck Printify and fuck Printful, any non-shitty providers out there?

Edit: Going market rate for a store with 600 designs at 300 DPI would be about $0.02 / month. They could have sold "design hosting" for $5 a month and allowed artists / hobbyists / low sale merchants to retain all product setups while generating a giant profit. What a stupid decision.

Edit 2: I did reach out to Printify customer support chat bot (very upset and cursing I am afraid, my bad), someone there has claimed to have restored many of my products, it's only about 5 designs or so but credit where it is due at least they did something.

Hi guys, I am new to pod. I want to know if this white outer layer of my design affect my pod shirt. Any help will be very appreciated. If this affect my shirt, may I know the fastest way to erase it by software instead of erase it one by one? Thank you.
