Printify

Printify was founded in Riga in 2015 and built its business on being an aggregator rather than a manufacturer, connecting sellers to a network of over 100 independent print providers across the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, China, and Europe. For a single product like a hoodie, you might have a dozen providers to choose from at different price points and turnaround times, and the platform shows ratings for each so you're not picking blind. That flexibility means the same t-shirt design might cost noticeably less printed through one provider in Latvia than another in California, which rewards sellers willing to compare before locking in a supplier for a product.

The free plan works fine for testing designs, and a Printify Premium subscription brings lower per-item pricing plus a wider product selection once volume justifies it. The catalog runs past 1,300 products, apparel, mugs, phone cases, wall art, bags, and more, connected to Shopify, Etsy, Amazon, eBay, and WooCommerce. The tradeoff for the low prices is that quality and shipping times aren't uniform: a print provider with great reviews for hoodies might be mediocre for mugs, so it's worth ordering a sample before committing a whole product line to a given provider. Good fit for sellers optimizing margin who don't mind doing a bit of homework on providers.
