I USED THIS APP TO IMPORT AND DESIGN MY TSHIRTS TO MY SHOPIFY ONLINE STORE. THE APP IS A GREAT LEARNING TOOL ALSO FOR ECOMMERCE WORK.

Very easy integration with Shopify. Products options are excellent. All over printing option is going to be a valuable tool for me in the future.

This is by far my favourite POD app, after a year I have tried most, I still use other print on demand suppliers but Printful is my favourite. I just wish their shipping was better priced. But I'm a bug fan regardless, great support as well.

The Printful app works flawlessly for me. I'm on it almost daily to upload new products and edit existing products and I've never had an issue with it.

It would be a fantastic idea to establish a retail startup focused on Printful shops, co-founded by Printful, Shopify, and clients/designers. The concept involves opening pop-up stores and organizing events to launch a distribution line with all its clients. Each store would exclusively display the sample collection, with purchases made through affiliated sites like Shopify, etc. It would be intriguing if Printful developed a special mirror for the pop-up stores, allowing visitors to try on clothes. I've observed that relying solely on a website, without liquidity, presents significant challenges. Therefore, promoting the brand offline would be crucial, although doing so without financial resources would be risky.

We use this app to do holiday-specific graphic tees (Valentine's Day, St. Patty's, Etc.). Normally we'd have minimum order quantities to produce something like this that was a bit cumbersome... since once the holiday is near or over, you are left with whatever inventory didn't sell. And good luck selling it for over a few dollars even at a warehouse sale since nobody is rocking a valentines tee mid-summer. Integration has been as simple as it gets. Overall UX and experience has been great.

I have been using this company for a while with my shopyfi store and it is the best thing that has happened to me. they meet their delivery times and have never missed an order. I recommend it 100%

its almost as painless as falling down and scraping your knee as a 9yr old and getting back up like nothing happened.

Excited to see what they could do we hastily we placed several sample orders, for multiple garments with Printful (in hindsight this was a mistake).. EVERY garment had 1x or more of the issues details below: • Badly folded and creased after being squeezed into mailing bags that are WAY too small (so they look used/worn) • Grubby / Dirty factory floor marks • Misplaced prints (so printed at an "angle" even though all of the artwork was 100% straight) • Poorly embroidered logos that are bunched. (not enough backing used) • Pretreatment stains (yellow) on ALL DTG garments. • Poor delivery times that missed the agreed SLA times. • It was initially claimed that you now have a "UK" based production centre (which is part of the reason we contracted you, but it appears all of these garments were sent from Europe?) To be frank the overall quality and experience is shockingly bad, and if these had been sent directly to our customers (luckily these were all "Test" orders shipped directly to us!) I am certain that they would have ALL been returned leaving our reputation for high quality products and service irrevocably damaged. We raised all of these issues with Printful, and approximately 20x emails later with multiple different reps (you never know who your going to get! another part of the problem: it's basically just a call centre full of people that couldn't care less!!) the general "gist" of their responses we're that it's: "Within Parameters" These people are literally trained to dismiss your issues, and point to some BS "Parameters" that make no sense, and they basically repeat themselves with their fingers in their ears... Not once did they EVER accept responsibility... It truly was a shockingly bad experience. Shockingly bad products, shocking customer services, and shocking inability to accept the fact that screwed up, filthy dirty garments, covered in stains, with wonky prints, and badly embroidered logos are not within anyones "Parameters". Please don't risk it, its not worth it, even if by chance you get a good order once, you'll rue the day when you have a problem... they won't be interested.
Hello! Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience with Printful has not been the most positive, but we hope we can improve it moving forward! Once an order has been placed, it would be routed to a fulfillment facility based on factors like product and print type availability, final destination, and others. Our team looked into your orders and they were routed to our Latvia fulfillment facility, as the items currently are not available for fulfillment with the UK one. You can always check product availability directly from our product catalog > availability tab. As all the items are placed on the printing and embroidery pallets by hand, there can be slight discrepancies regarding the placement of the final design. The staining you mentioned would be from the fixation agent that's used industry-wide and helps the inks bond with the garment. It wouldn't be permanent and would come off after the first quick wash. If there's ever an issue with any of the received products that has been an error on our side, or if the product has been damaged in transit, we would always take full responsibility. We see that you've been in contact with our senior team member already and full refunds have been issued for your products as of now. Thank you once again for your time and honest feedback! If you ever have any questions - don't hesitate to reach out to our support team at [email protected] or our live chat and we will be happy to help you. -Santa

My experience with Printful has been like a toxic relationship. A wave of good times and total nightmares. We've had problems with products (one time my customer received a bag that said "coffee, squats and Jesus" - not something I sell) and other times it was crooked or misplaced prints. Despite selling over $50K in the last 6 months however, the company has shoved my business aside. They've hired inadequate shipping couriers and failed to provide a solution when over 20 of my orders were completely lost over the last 2 weeks. Their only solution to this ongoing issue is for me to upgrade to the Pro Membership for $65/mo, where I can choose a reliable courier myself, which for the bare minimum (the expectation for shipments to reach my customers, as per their entire business model), seems unreasonable. Before the current shipping fiasco, and right after my first big round of sales, I was offered the Executive discount, which isn't much - a dollar or so in savings, per sale. Since I sell in spurts each time a new product is dropped, this doesn't allow for me to stay consistent with sales numbers. A month or so after my first product drop, I was approached by a high level account manager (Samanta) who wanted to "check in" and see why I wasn't making the same sales that I had originally made within the first week - I explained my business model and she continued to press me, letting me know that she'd like to see $15-$20K in sales moving forward in order for me to keep my Executive discount. She said that this wasn't a hard and fast rule but a negotiation for me to keep the existing rate. This felt gross to me since I hadn't asked for the discounted rate in the first place - it was applied as a courtesy in what I assumed was an attempt to create an ongoing business relationship. Being given sales targets as if I was a low-level employee of this 3rd party app left a bad taste in my mouth, and as soon as I expressed that, I was met with hostility and a lot of ego-driven passive aggressive responses. Multiple emails followed with her mentioning my "unwillingness to cooperate" until I asked her not to email me again. I chose to look past that until the recent shipping incidents and the lack of cooperation from the Printful team. It seems that they will only do what it takes to protect their bottom line, even if that means that your business suffers the consequences. They seem to be using the poor delivery performance as leverage to move me into an expensive Pro Membership as they understand that it's my only option to provide positive customer experiences. They have acknowledged the shipping issue and refuse to make changes. They do not care about your business and they do not care about your customers. Unfortunately I am still with Printful until I find a solution to move my products to a new fulfilment service - a lot of the damage to my business' reliability through the eyes of my customers has already been done. Save your business's reputation and all of the stress that will inevitably occur in dealing with this company - please go elsewhere. (Shout out to Mariam though, she is seemingly the only good human at that company)

I like how easy it is to connect items to the store. Printful makes it easy to create items and add creativity. I wish when designs were updated on printful they would update on the store.

I've been using Printful for over 4 years now. I mostly do posters, my customers are always happy with the quality and packaging. I've had some shipping issues, but they quickly rectify and fix whatever problems that have come up with any orders.

I love the products from the Printful app, but I wish it were easier to create/download variant mockups.

Thank you for always the best service. Not only is the quality of the product the best, but the prompt response of the support center staff is also the best. Also, your YouTube and blog are always used as a reference for our business. One point to confirm, I would like to work on sneaker design, but when will it be possible? I sent an e-mail to you, but I have not received any reply, so I will take this opportunity to contact you. Finally, it seems that our customers are also grateful for all of your high-quality products, printing technology, delivery schedules and more. We look forward to working with you in the future. I ordered a sample of sneakers I designed myself the other day, so I will update the review again when it arrives. I'm looking forward to it. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Thank you for your continued support in 2022! They provided support for smooth operation of various new functions, such as the function to automatically post the delivery date on the product page of TrendyJapan.net, system support when introducing Shopify POS, etc. Also, regarding the VAT on products destined for Europe, we received an email shortly after ordering, and were able to include the message in the news on TrendyJapan.net. Thank you very much. Thank you for your continued support.
