Several services offer the ability to automate customization for print on demand products.
Here is a brief overview of current pricing and integrations:
Customily
Broad marketplace integrations with Shopify, Woocommerce, Amazon, Etsy and others.
Print on Demand integrations – Customily works with a large number of major POD providers.
Pricing: $49 per month PER MARKETPLACE INTEGRATION plus $1 per order, which drops to .50 per order after 100 orders are sent in a month, .25 per order after 1000 orders are sent and .10 per order after 10,000 orders – per month.
Bottom line: Customily is realistically targeting only those with high volumes of sales. the top 1 percent of the market. For the other 99% of online sellers the pricing may consume a significant amount of your profits, although perhaps customization is your path to higher sales volume.
Customily appears to be the market leader and has priced itself knowing it is the leader and can maximize its profits.
Hello Custom
Marketplace integrations are Amazon and Etsy.
Print on Demand integration is Printify.
Cost per month is $30 plus .29 per order.
Many sellers are doing the Printify / Etsy get rich scam so the limited number of integrations will still work for them
Anywhere POD
Marketplace Integrations are Etsy and Shopify.
Print on Demand integrations are Printify, Teelaunch, and a few others – notable including Order Desk. It was unclear from my limited review, though, whether Order Desk can be used as a gateway connection to potentially dozens of POD companies that Order Desk works with; as well as many marketplaces.
Pricing paid monthly is $10 flat fee with no per order cost. The limitation is one Etsy or Shopify store and one POD provider. If you’re limited to doing the Printify – Etsy thing this is a no-brainer to use.
$25 per month for two POD providers and up to two Etsy stores, and then $49 per month for unlimited POD providers and unlimited Etsy stores. Again, there is no per order fee.
Conclusion
Decisions. Decisions. I haven’t attempted to evaluate how the customization works with each company and any limitations.
For sellers using numerous POD providers with lots of sales Customily seems built for your business.
Anywhere POD, though, may be an option, especially depending on how broad the Order Desk integration can be used. However, Customily offers POD integrations that Order Desk does not, such as Completeful.
The problem with Anywhere POD is that it is OK if you only use one POD provider such as Printify. But once you expand to other providers you’re suddenly looking at the same monthly cost as Customily – although not having a per order fee is a significant savings.
There is not much of a reason to use Hello Custom – except it has Amazon – which can be a huge reason. Order Desk integrates with Amazon so if you sell on Amazon you will want to find out if Anywhere POD working with Order Desk can handle customized Amazon orders.
