Your order price with SPOD is calculated this way:
- Order price = Base product price + print cost + shipping cost + tax
It is important for you to know that what you pay at SPOD doesn't depend on what you charge your customers. For example, if you want to sell a T-Shirt for $40, we will still use the base product price you see on your product page. This is also true for the opposite. If you want to be aggressive on the market and offer your product at a very low price. The price charged by SPOD will remain the same even if your retail price is inferior to the order price at SPOD.
Base product price
Each product has a different price. You can find all the different base price here: SPOD - Products
Print cost
The print cost will be influenced by two factors:
- The number of print areas.
By print areas, we mean where exactly are you placing the designs. If you have a design on the front and the back of the product, that would mean you are using two print areas.
At SPOD, the first print area is always free. There is no additional cost to your products. Every extra print area, however, will be charged an extra $5 / 5€.
- The print method used.
DTG (or Digital Direct) doesn't have any additional cost. When you use one of the Flex, Special Flex, or Flock design, an extra $2,50 / 2,50€ will be applied. This is a one-time fee for your order. Even if you use multiple print areas with Flex print, the fee will only be applied once.
