Their app will insert poorly optimized script into your website and cause significant problems to your website speed. I did lighthouse tests and Their script: "/sizing-charts-script.js" has a 1900 ms Script Evaluation delay that is more than every other app and scripts combined.

I've been trying to sign up for an acccount but it just keeps "thinking" and never connecting. Shame.

The steel signs are junk. Received my sample product and let me just say I am glad I purchased a sample before going any further. The metal is thin and warped. I can't offer this to my customers.
Thank you for your feedback about the sign. As per our 100% satisfaction guarantee, we've processed your refund. While we respect your opinion, it's important to note that we carefully selected this metal thickness to provide our customers with an optimal balance of durability and affordability. Using thicker metal would dramatically increase costs, making it much harder for our customers to maintain profitable margins. With millions of dollars in sales and tens of thousands of satisfied customers, we stand confidently behind our product's value proposition - it's designed specifically to help our customers succeed financially.

I cannot use it. I don't know why. There is an info in my Shopify that the app cannot make connection. I really like some products that Teelaunch make and hope I can sell them.
Can you please email me at [email protected] and we will figure out how to get everything working for you.

I have had so many issues with this company. I've been with these guys for 3 years and I sell 80 to 100 signs a month. They wont do anything to fix the problem. I've had 3 damaged signs this month. They package these signs in thin cardboard sleeves, its honestly a joke. I've talked to other sellers and they are having the same issues. They make you jump through hoops get a refund. They use a company in Louisiana. Also when I complained before the CEO was supposed to contact me but he blew me off. This company is the worst when it comes to customer service. I've been looking for a metal company unfortunately they are hard to find. The moment I find one, I am out. So if you expect to use them, prepare for big losses because you will be refunding $200-300 orders back.
This is Christopher, founder of teelaunch. First, I want to sincerely apologize for not reaching out sooner - there was a communication breakdown on our end. As a long-term partner who's been with us for 3 years, you deserved better communication from me. I want to be transparent about our metal signs production. As I've mentioned before, these are produced by a partner factory in our extended network. They face the complex challenge of balancing three key factors: cost, speed, and quality. They've done extensive analysis to find the current sweet spot - while thicker metal would reduce bending issues, it would significantly drive up costs for our sellers. Similarly, sturdier packaging would substantially increase packaging time for each individual sign, slowing down production considerably. We've successfully sold hundreds of thousands of these signs with a very small percentage of issues. When problems do occur, we always make it right with either a refund or replacement. However, I should note that the claim process for replacements or refunds is actually set by UPS, not us, and unfortunately we have no control over their procedures. I know this may not be the perfect solution for everyone's needs, but this is the current product offering our factory partner has optimized for the majority of our sellers. We truly value your business and feedback, and I appreciate you giving me the opportunity to explain the situation.

BE CAREFUL! Exercise caution when dealing with TEELAUNCH. While they may fulfill a few orders promptly, ordering in more than a few orders poses a risk. They struggle to meet deadlines when you start submitting more than a few orders and to exacerbate the issue, they enforce a 10-day no-movement tracking policy. This means they acquire the tracking information but don't dispatch the item to the courier for an entire ten days. Unfortunately, this policy nearly compromised my business during the last Christmas season.
Thank you for bringing up your experience from January 2024! I'm excited to share that we've completely transformed our blanket production since then. We've expanded to two state-of-the-art facilities and significantly boosted our capacity - we can now produce up to 1,000 blankets per hour! We've also switched to a new shipping service to ensure smoother delivery. While I understand your frustration with the issues you faced last year, I'm happy to say those concerns have been fully addressed with our new setup. I'd love for you to check out our improved blankets and service - we've come a long way! 😊

Oh boy, I really wanted to like this app. I downloaded it today, launched 1 product and immediately had issues. With jewelry, they send a text box for customization. Well you can't select the finish until you add the name into this unmarked box. The box is also located just above the add to cart button. Somehow they have it locked down that you cannot change the order of any options for this product. You cannot take the box out, label it or list it first. This is confusing as everything is grayed out until that box is filled. I contacted customer support and was told it was a shopify issue (I spoke to them first) and that I should just put a note in to fill out the box first. I'm sorry I have to just deal with the bad coding? Uh no. This is my business and if you cannot correct something to make it functional, and let's be honest, correct, I don't think we can be in business together. First day 2 hours, waste of time. If they contact me regarding this and fix the issue I will update my review.
Very sorry for the issues, I've reached out to you this morning to figure out how I can resolve this for you.

Extremely poor customer service despite multiple emails. Extremely long waits for shipping. Avoid them. There are plenty other POD companies who actually take care of their customers.

The following pertains to T-shirts only: Want to do business with a POD company that often ships you shirts that are over sprayed with pre-treatment thus leaving weird stains on your shirts after you wash them? Teelaunch is for you. Want to do business with a POD company that often prints your designs off centered? Teelaunch is for you. Want to do business with a POD company that often prints your designs crooked? Teelaunch is for you. Want to do business with a POD company that after 3-4 washes the print often develops lots of tiny cracks? Teelaunch is for you. Want to do business with a POD company that cares more about money than customer satisfaction? Teelaunch is for you. Want to do business with a POD company that treats you like a number and not a valued customer? Teelaunch is for you. Want to do business with a POD company that when they run out of the pricey shirt you selected for your business decides to ship your customer a lesser priced shirt brand without so much as notifying you? Teeluanch is for you. Want to do business with a POD company that will tarnish your company's reputation? Teelaunch is for you. Krusty the CEO is not to be trusted. This company is doing shady business. Please look elsewhere when selecting a POD to do business with. I've personally dealt with Teelaunch for several years and have had enough. UPDATE: 09-26-22 Teelaunch, I see you updated your response to my review by removing your lie...only after I called you out on it via email. Way to save face. So did I send a vulgar email filled with swearing to Teelaunch? I sure did. One out of a couple dozen is not bad. Yes, I've had to reach out to Teelaunch dozens of times in the past due to bad product they sent me or my customers. I was always cordial, which in turn the Teelaunch representative rarely was. They need lessons in manners and professionalism. After so many screw-ups from Teelaunch, I just about had enough of their incompetences and went off the rails in my email to them. The fact that I did this does not and will not change much with Teelaunch. Most of the problems I have addressed with Teelaunch in the past so many years still exist. I think only one issue I addressed has been addressed. The fact is that they are inconsistent. One may or may not get quality items from Teelaunch. Their quality control department is one I would not be proud of if this were my company. Good luck to you if decide to use Teelaunch. Inspect all sample orders from them and don't assume just because they got it right once, they'll get it right every time. They don't....often.
This is one of those unfortunate situations where the issues were something that could have been sorted out but we had to make the hard decision to protect our employees and discontinue our relationship with this customer. The emails that were sent from this customer contained a shocking amount of swearing and abusive language. Even when threatened with this negative review we decided that due to his behavior this was a customer we could no longer work with.

Like one of the reviewers, i have been using this for a couple of years. Then they made an update and I was never notified until one of my orders never processed. I too was told I had to create a new account, only to find that my items i created were no longer in the app, but was assured when an order was placed it would sinc that product. There use to be an easy option once the product was create to push it to Etsy. That is now gone also. It was free and easy to use and now I have to pay for another app that will connect my Shopify items to Etsy. When I downloaded that and got two orders, one of the tumblers on each order was the wrong one...correct on Etsy, wrong in Shopify and TeeLaunch. I was asked if I had changed the SKU's. I haven't touched any of my listings in over a year...SKU's are auto generated...have no reason to touch them unless I intentionally don't want to get orders. Needless to say, the last couple of weeks have been a mess!!!

I worked well for years. I just updated the app and my existing order is gone. I'll have to refund the customer. Going to go with another vendor.
I am so sorry that you had trouble with this order, I was able to resolve your issue with the app and I verified and the order was received by the customer.

I have been happy with the quality of the products but after the update, all of my products and account settings are gone and I have an order to place. I need this fixed or I'll have to find another supplier!
We reached out to you to offer our solution but you had already decided to move on to a different vendor. We take full responsibility for the issue and let us know if there is anything we can do to earn your business back in the future.

THEIR RECENT APP UPDATE DELETED ALL MY PRODUCTS! Been using them since 2016 along with a couple of other providers here on Shopify app store and all has been OK, but suddenly they did an update and all my products are gone! I have written to them and they have not helped me at all! I have moved all my orders out of their site and onto their competitors who do a much better job with customer support.
I'm sorry for the trouble you had migrating to the new version of the app. We let you down and understand why you felt the need to leave. That being said, if you ever want to give us another chance we'll work hard to regain your trust.

I HAVE ORDERS TO PLACE AND THE APP ISN'T EVEN LOADING NOW. THIS IS THE WORST POD EVER! FIX THE APP NOW!
This issue has been fixed and we apologize for the short downtime. We tried to contact you about this but your email bounced back. Please reach out if you are still having trouble.

ALL OF MY PRODUCTS AND ORDERS ARE NOW GONE AS A RESULT OF THEIR APP UPDATE! Worst update EVER! No warning, no information, nothing. One day everything is there, next day, GONE! Unacceptable!!
I looked into your issue and your products aren't gone, they just had trouble importing into the new version of the app. Your frustration is understandable but this is an issue we can fix if you give us another chance.

I would rate this a zero if I could. I chose them because they are US-based. Three stores with them and not one order fulfilled, not one customer service reply, nothing. They act as if it is "In Process" but three months later and nothing??? I have had to find alternatives and pay more to maintain my business integrity. Skip these guys.
Can you please email me at [email protected], I am not finding you anywhere in our system. I can assure you no customer has ever waited 3 months for production and our customer service answers all questions in 48 hours with most responses coming in under 12 since we operate 18 hours a day. So I really think there is a misunderstanding here and I'd really love to clear this up.

I am so upset about the latest transaction with Teelaunch. An item was ordered via Etsy on Nov. 17th and didn't ship until the evening of Dec.3rd. I had multiple communications with them up to that point and multiple emails with my customer who was ok with the long processing time as long as they received it by Dec. 5th. The amount of excuses as to why it took so long to produce and ship is a joke. Every email was worse than the last with their addition (it looks like 16 days before shipping but when you factor in all their employees wellness days to them it was just 11 days of processing). They refused to credit me ( I had to refund my irate customer) and then I said fine ship it to me and they went ahead and shipped to the customer anyway which was icing on the cake. I have removed all their products and warn if you are a small business that relies on your own customer service this type of business transaction can really put you in a bind. No one wants to wait for a purchase this long. OH, and if you didn't realize how long the Teelaunch processing times are (because it's not listed with the products) they will send you a blog link that you should have read to find out. SMH.
