Custom Printing | Upload Your Artwork

PNG, SVG, PSD (Photoshop) and flattened PDF are our preferred formats. We also accept JPG, TIFF and AI (Illustrator) files.

PNG with a transparent background gives the cleanest die-cut result for stickers and magnets.

If you've got a file in another format, upload it anyway. We'll contact you if we need something different.

Up to 4 designs per order on custom vinyl stickers and holographic stickers.

If you upload 4 designs on a 96 sticker pack, you receive 24 of each design. Total quantity splits evenly across your uploaded designs.

Other products (magnetic bookmarks, backing cards, UV DTF, greeting cards) have their own design limits. Check the specific product page for details.

Yes. We have two free browser-based tools, no software, no AI, free to use and download.

Bookmark Creator: design your own magnetic bookmark. Upload your art, shape and position it, add a backing card and get a free proof plus a print-ready file.

Proof Lab: perfect your sticker. Add a coloured border, remove a white background and preview your die-cut line before you order.

Both work right in your browser. Use them to get your artwork print-ready, then order as normal.

Minimum 1500 pixels at 300 DPI for sticker and small-format work. Larger prints need proportionally higher resolution.

Higher resolution equals sharper, more professional results. Screenshots, low-res social media exports and pixelated artwork may be rejected or flagged so we can get a better file from you before printing.

If you're not sure, upload the largest file you have. We check every order before printing and will contact you if there's an issue.

Yes. Most of our customers aren't professional designers.

For stickers, our free Proof Lab tool lets you remove a white background, add a coloured border and preview your die-cut line right in your browser. No software needed, and you can download a print-ready file.

Prefer us to handle it? Upload whatever you have and leave a note at checkout. Common requests: remove the background, add a white border, crop to a specific shape, clean up rough edges. We'll shape your artwork into something print-ready before producing anything, and email you first if we can't.

Yes. Our default is a 2-4mm white border for clean die-cutting, but you can change it.

Set it yourself: our free Proof Lab tool lets you add a coloured border, remove the white border or preview a full-bleed cut before you order, then download the result.

Or tell us: for a different colour border, send a HEX code (for example #FDBA11 for Stickiply yellow) in the order notes. For no border at all (full bleed), leave 2-4mm of bleed around your design, or give us a CMYK HEX code so we can extend your border colour before cutting.

RGB. Send your original file and do not convert it to CMYK.

We print on Epson 6-tank PBCMYKG dye-based printers, and our print process works from RGB. A CMYK file is converted back to RGB before it prints, so converting it yourself adds an extra step where colours can shift.

Neons: some neon RGB tones (bright greens, electric cyans, vivid purples) are brighter than any printer can reproduce and will print a little duller than on screen. If you make your file in Illustrator, export it with the High Quality Print preset, as Press Quality and PDF/X-1a convert everything to CMYK.

By the longest side of your design, either height or width.

Standard sticker sizes: 2 inch (5cm), 3 inch (7.6cm), 4 inch (10cm).

A 9cm wide by 5cm tall design fits a 4 inch (10cm) order because 9cm is its longest side. Leave a note at checkout with exact dimensions if you need a specific width or height.

Other products (bookmarks, backing cards, greeting cards) have their own size conventions. Check the product page.

Yes. Leave a note at checkout with the exact dimensions you want.

Example: for a 9cm × 5cm design, order the 4 inch (10cm) size and note "max width = 9cm". We'll size to your spec rather than the standard.

Works for all our custom products. If your requested size is outside what we can produce, we'll email you before charging.

Low minimums made for small businesses. Most custom products start at small pack sizes so you can test a design before committing to a full run.

Custom vinyl stickers start at 48 per design (or 12 per design if you upload 4). Other products have their own minimums.

If you need a one-off sample or an unusual quantity for a larger order, email us and we'll try to help.

Yes. Bigger orders unlock bigger discounts, up to 50% off per sticker on large runs.

Standard pack sizes for stickers: 48, 96, 200, 500, 1000 and 2000. Savings increase with each tier.

We cap individual designs at 2000 per order. Beyond that, a large-scale manufacturer is usually more cost-effective for you.

Matte: non-reflective, soft-touch, scratch and water-resistant. Best for muted tones, minimalist designs and a premium feel.

Gloss: high-shine, vibrant, reflective. Best for bold artwork, strong contrast and darker colours that benefit from a colour-popping finish.

Glitter: all-over sparkle effect. Best for high-impact designs with solid colours and darker backgrounds.

Holographic: rainbow shimmer that shifts as you move the sticker. Best for eye-catching designs on our custom holographic stickers.
