Three steps. We do the printing.

You make the release and decide how it sells. We print, pack, ship and look after your buyers.

The whole process
  1. Design and price it

    Upload your art, place it and pick colours. See the base and set your price — what you keep updates as you type.

  2. Launch your store

    Run a campaign with a closing date, or print on demand so it's always on sale. A printer reviews your file first.

  3. We print, ship and pay you

    Printed in our shop, shipped with tracking in 3–5 business days on demand. Your earnings are paid monthly by PayPal.

Hit 24 and it's screen printed by hand.

24 or more garments in a run are screen printed on a manual press. Fewer are DTF printed. Same shop, same printer checking your file either way — and buyers read exactly this before they pay. In a campaign, the run is everything sold before it closes.

  • 24in a run and it's screen printed by hand
  • 3–5business days to ship a print-on-demand order
  • 6ink colours on a screen-printed run of 40+

Know your numbers before you launch.

The base is the blank, the print, packing and our margin — the same number the Studio shows you. Everything above it is yours.

for 30 sold

  • Base per tee$16.15
  • You keep per tee$8.84
  • A run this size isScreen printed by hand

Buyers pay your price plus shipping: $7.99 an order, free over $75. An example of the arithmetic, not a sales forecast.

Bases are for one full-front print up to 10 × 12 in on sizes up to XL, under the price rules in force today (version 1): the blank, the print, packing and our margin. 2XL and up cost the buyer more and you keep the same. Your release's base depends on its artwork's size and placements — the Studio shows it before you set a price. What you keep is the same whether a run is screen printed or DTF printed.

Printed in our shop, not a warehouse.

Straight answers.

All questions
Is it really free?

Yes. There's no monthly fee, no listing fee and nothing to buy up front. Each garment has a base cost — the blank, the print, packing and our margin — and you see it before you set your price. What you keep per garment is your price minus that base.

Buyers pay your price plus shipping: $7.99 an order, free over $75.

Screen print or DTF — who decides?

The run does. 24 or more garments in a run are screen printed on a manual press; fewer are DTF printed. In a campaign the run is everything sold before it closes; on demand it's each day's orders for your release.

Screen printing takes up to 2 ink colours from 24 garments and up to 6 from 40. A design that needs more prints DTF in full colour, and the printer confirms it against your artwork before it goes on press. Buyers read this rule before they pay, and the method never changes what they're charged.

What if a campaign sells fewer than 24?

It still prints — DTF instead of screen print — and every buyer gets their order. Nobody is refunded for a run that came up short, and what you keep per garment doesn't change.

How and when do I get paid?

Earnings from an order become available 21 days after it ships, and we pay them by PayPal at the start of each month once you have $20 or more available. You add your PayPal email in the Studio and confirm it with a code we email to it.

US tax rules apply: we ask for a W-9 before your payouts reach $600.

Who handles payments, shipping and returns?

We do. ARK is the merchant of record: buyers pay ARK through Stripe, we print, pack and ship with tracking, and we answer them if something's wrong.

A defective, damaged or wrong item is replaced or refunded within 30 days of delivery, and a size that doesn't fit is exchanged free within 30 days. Because every garment is printed to order, we don't refund a change of mind.

How fast do orders ship?

Print on demand: we pull the day's orders every evening and they ship in 3–5 business days. Campaign: everything sold is printed together within 5 business days of the blanks arriving after it closes, then shipped. Every order gets a tracking number by email.

Do you ship outside the US?

Not yet. Orders ship within the United States only for now.
