DTF & UV DTF transfers

Gang sheets, sizes, prices and applying

7 questions

Whatโ€™s the difference between DTF and UV DTF?

DTF goes on fabric with heat. UV DTF is a sticker for hard surfaces.

More detailLess

DTF transfers are heat-pressed onto clothing and other fabric. UV DTF transfers stick onto hard, smooth surfaces such as tumblers, bottles, phones, laptops and windows.

Not sure which you need? Ask us what youโ€™re printing on.

Whatโ€™s a gang sheet?

One sheet, filled with as many of your designs as fit.

More detailLess

Instead of paying per design, you lay out lots of designs on one sheet and we print it in one go. Cut them apart and apply each one. The gang sheet guide walks you through it.

What sizes can I order?

A4, A3, half metre, or any length from 1 m up to 100 m.

More detailLess

Our DTF and UV DTF rolls are 58 cm wide. Sheets by the metre start at 1 m and round up to the next 10 cm (so 2.34 m is charged as 2.4 m).

How much do transfers cost?

DTF from $15 a sheet or $55 a metre. UV DTF from $20 a sheet or $80 a metre.

More detailLess
SheetDTFUV DTF
A4 21 ร— 29.7 cm$15$20
A3 29.7 ร— 42 cm$20$30
Half metre 58 ร— 50 cm$30$50
Per metre 58 cm wide$55 / m$80 / m

Longer orders get a bulk discount on the per-metre rate, worked out on the total metres in your order (e.g. 2 sheets ร— 2.5 m = 5 m, so 20% off):

Do you have templates?

Yes: free templates for Canva, Illustrator and Photoshop.

More detailLess

Templates for A4, A3, half metre and per-metre sheets are on the gang sheet page, with step-by-step guides for Canva, Illustrator and Photoshop. One Canva page can go up to 2 m; Illustrator and Photoshop templates go up to 5 m.

Custom apparel

Ordering, prices, sizing and stock

4 questions

How do I order custom apparel?

Design it in our online designer, pick your sizes, and check out.

More detailLess

Choose a product in the online designer, add your logo or artwork, pick colours, sizes and quantities, then check out.

How do I get a price?

The quote builder gives you one straight away.

More detailLess

Use the quote builder for an instant price. For something unusual, send us a message with the product, quantity, sizes and where the print goes.

How do I pick the right size?

Check the size guide on each product page before you order.

More detailLess

A wrong garment size canโ€™t be returned, because everything is printed just for you. When in doubt, measure a garment you already like and compare.

Do you keep stock?

Hardly any. Nearly everything is made to order, just for you.

More detailLess

We hold stock of only a very few selected items. Orders through our website or any of our affiliate stores are custom made to order.

Turnaround

How long production takes

4 questions

How long does custom apparel take?

Standard around 10 working days, Priority 4โ€“7, ASAP 1โ€“3.

More detailLess

You choose the production speed at checkout, and it shows your estimated dispatch date for each:

SpeedProductionCost
StandardAround 10 working daysNo extra charge
PriorityAround 4โ€“7 working days+25% production fee
ASAPAround 1โ€“3 working days+40% production fee

Production times are working days in New Zealand and exclude public holidays. Cut-off times may affect the first production day.

How long do transfers take?

Out the door within 2 working days, and usually the same day.

More detailLess

Order and pay before 10 am and your transfers usually go out the same day. The 2 working days is our buffer for busy times.

Need it today? Choose Rush on the upload page: you become our first priority, so your transfers will almost certainly be printed and sent the same day. Itโ€™s 10% on top of the order, for orders up to 10 m in total.

When do webstore orders get printed?

When the store closes, or straight away if itโ€™s always open.

More detailLess

In a store that opens for a set time, printing starts after it closes so everything is printed together: allow our standard production time (around 10 working days) from the closing date, then delivery. In an always-open store, your order goes into production when you place it.

I need it by a certain date.

Order early, and pick a faster speed if you need to.

More detailLess

Courier delays are out of our control and arenโ€™t grounds for a refund or return, so leave some room. Cutting it fine? Message us before you order and weโ€™ll tell you whatโ€™s possible.

6 questions

What files should I send?

Vector (AI, PDF, SVG) or a high-resolution PNG with a transparent background.

More detailLess

For merch, attach up to six files (20 MB each message) on the contact form. For a finished gang sheet, use the upload page.

Does my background need to be transparent?

Yes. Anything that isnโ€™t transparent gets printed.

A white or coloured box around your design prints as a white or coloured box. Remove the background before you send it. The gang sheet guide shows a quick way to check.

How do I send a gang sheet?

Upload it on the gang sheet upload page, one file per order.

More detailLess

I use Canva Free. Can I still send a transparent file?

Yes. Share your Canva design link and weโ€™ll download it for you.

More detailLess

Canva Free canโ€™t download a transparent background, so share your design link with us instead. The Canva guide shows how.

What if my image is low quality?

Our designer warns you. Low-quality prints canโ€™t be returned.

More detailLess

If you see the low-quality warning, upload a better version, or send it to us to check first.

Do I need to check my proof?

Yes, carefully. Errors in an approved proof canโ€™t be returned.
