Merchize

Merchize is a print-on-demand & dropshipping platform that offers both a hosted storefront and fulfillment for external stores. With a large catalog (AOP apparel, tees/hoodies, shoes, drinkware, home décor, wall art, accessories), you can design, publish, and ship worldwide under your own brand with white-label packaging.


Merchize overview

Merchize makes each product after the order is placed and ships directly to your customer under your brand. The catalog spans all-over print (AOP) apparel, everyday tees/hoodies, footwear, drinkware, home & living, and wall art. You can run a Merchize-hosted store or connect an external cart to let Merchize handle manufacturing and fulfillment while you focus on design and marketing.

Pricing, quality & fulfillment

There’s no subscription required for fulfillment—you pay the base product + shipping per order. Production times vary by item (AOP & footwear generally longer than DTG basics). A practical planning range is ~3–7 business days for most apparel and giftables, then carrier transit depending on destination and service level. As always, order samples of your flagship SKUs to validate print quality, materials, sizing, and margins before scaling.

  • Print methods: Sublimation/AOP on polyester items; DTG/heat-transfer for select garments; other methods by product.
  • Quality control: In-line checks; defect reprints handled via support.
  • Shipping: Tracked worldwide options; delivery windows vary by region and season.

Integrations & branding

  • Shopify, Etsy, and WooCommerce connections to sync products and auto-fulfill orders.
  • CSV/API workflows for custom stacks and marketplaces.
  • Hosted store option if you want an all-in-one storefront on Merchize.
  • White-label packing (no supplier logo) with store-branded slips/inserts where supported.

When Merchize makes sense

  • You want a broad, giftable-friendly catalog (AOP apparel, footwear, tumblers, blankets, wall art) under one roof.
  • You prefer flexible setup: either a hosted store or plug-in fulfillment for your existing Shopify/Etsy/Woo store.
  • You’re launching seasonal collections and need white-label dropshipping without inventory risk.

Tip: Publish a small starter lineup (1–2 AOP garments + 1 drinkware + 1 home décor item). Add clear size charts and regional delivery ranges on product pages.
