What merchants say
Amazing customer service and really versatile app that is helping our customers customize our products - and it's super easy to set-up!
I really like the idea but it takes too long to save the design, you can only upload photos of 2mb or less and it does not convert the photos, so it is difficult for someone to upload a photo with the quality of cell phones now that normally have more of 2 mb. I like how easy it is to install on the products and that it is free. I know it could work a lot for me if these problems are solved. it's a great idea.
I had been looking for an app that we could use for our online clients to use in designing their printed items and this is perfect! I can specify which products to add it to and then it doesn't affect the pricing modules that I had already worked so hard on. When a customer uses this designer and places an order the file doesn't come through clear or as large as specified. I can't specify the bleeds. I have emailed multiple times and at first was getting responses but now I am not.
1. It can't be used by Mac, only support Windows. 2. When share to Social Media, it don't share to Social media, just let the Design board back to Product Page and show a very small design board . 3. Downlaod PDF fail. 4. Mobile use unfriendly. 5. If we can upload our element, that's perfect.
Great products, fast loading, clean interface, user friendly and excellent customer support that is always there to address and resolve any customer's concern or problems. They are committed to constantly updating the app and making it better.
I have been using this app for several months. Although I'm not using all the features that the app offers, I must say that it works perfectly. The design and usability are fantastic and it has the best responsive mode. The developers have put a lot of work and effort into this product and have taken into account many details that are really practical when configuring the products. They also helped me with some problems that came up while I was testing. That's why I can't more than strongly recommend this plugin and I hope it will receive many good updates in the future.
Overview
Printcart Product Personalizer is a Shopify product personalizer that adds an online design tool to your products so shoppers can customize them before they buy. Each order returns a print-ready file, while your Shopify theme, checkout and payments stay exactly as they are.
Who it is for
Printcart Product Personalizer suits Shopify merchants who sell made-to-order or personalized products.
- Shopify print shops: add a digital design flow to a local or online printing business.
- Entrepreneurs: launch print-on-demand stores for apparel, mugs, posters and corporate gifts.
- Agencies and B2B suppliers: manage corporate branding and bulk merchandise orders.
- Marketplace founders: build a designer-to-printer store on Shopify with multi-vendor options.
How it works
You set the app up from the Shopify admin and keep selling through your Online Store.
- Install the app. Open the Printcart Product Personalizer listing on the Shopify App Store, add the app to your store and connect it.
- Import your products. Bring in products and their variations from your store so the designer matches your catalog.
- Set the design areas. Add sides to each product and set the design area, or apply a side template to define it for you.
- Turn on personalization. Enable the design tool or customer upload for each product and set your printing options.
- Add the block to your theme. In the Theme editor, add the Printcart personalizer block to your product page.
- Receive orders. Review orders and uploaded files in the Printcart Dashboard and download the print files for production.
What the buyer sees
Shoppers personalize the product on its page inside the safe print areas you define. They use templates, text customization and image uploads in an interface that is responsive across devices and screen sizes, preview the result, and then check out through your normal Shopify checkout.
What you get for production
Every personalized order returns print-ready files in SVG, PDF, PNG and JPG. The Printcart Dashboard lets you manage the printing workflow, projects, orders and designs, and the Printcart API gives access to order and design data for your own tools such as a CRM or ERP system. Printcart is used by 2000+ stores across apparel, signage and promotional products.
Products you can sell
Printcart Product Personalizer works for products such as T-shirts, mugs, stationery, signage and packaging. Each product keeps its Shopify variants, while the print areas you define control where a buyer can place text and images.
What stays the same in your store
Shopify remains your storefront. Your theme, checkout, payments and other apps keep working, and Printcart adds only the personalization and web-to-print layer on top, so shoppers still buy the way they already do.
Why design areas matter
Safe print areas keep the on-screen preview close to what gets produced. When a buyer stays inside the area you set, the print-ready file matches the design they approved, which means fewer corrections before production. It also helps your customers, because they see the printable zone while they design instead of discovering a problem after the order.
