Printify T-Shirt Review | Is It The Best T-Shirt Printing Company
About this video
RJ Martinez reviews Printify based on a sample he ordered: an army-green Bella + Canvas 3001 t-shirt in extra large printed with his own design (‘stay out of my niches’). He shows the print up close and calls it very clean, and recommends the Bella Canvas 3001’s feel. He explains Printify as a print-on-demand service that prints and ships orders directly to the customer when a sale is made, so the seller holds no inventory, across products including t-shirts, mugs, phone cases and posters. Pros he lists: high print quality across several items he has ordered, a wide product range, competitive pricing he says is better than many printing companies, and a user-friendly design interface for uploading a design and choosing a product. His main con is shipping times, especially in Q4, when high order volume pushes delivery out; he argues that is inherent to using print providers and that the alternative — buying your own printer — costs thousands of dollars. He stresses that Printify offers many different print providers at different price points and locations (for example California versus Florida), so sellers need to log in, compare providers for their product and destination, and always order a sample themselves before committing. He also suggests other uses beyond a personal store: helping local businesses sell merchandise through print providers for a royalty or percentage, and building your own brand/audience and offering it merchandise, connecting Printify to Shopify, Etsy or Amazon stores.
Key takeaways
- Always order a sample first: his Bella + Canvas 3001 sample arrived with a clean print, but he says every seller should verify quality and feel firsthand.
- Printify’s model is inventory-free: a customer order triggers printing and shipping directly to that customer.
- Expect the main downside — shipping delays, especially during Q4 volume — and set customer expectations accordingly.
- Compare Printify’s multiple print providers per product: price and location (which affects delivery) vary, so check before choosing.
- Beyond your own store, the service can be resold as a service to local businesses or used to merchandise a brand/audience you build.
