Best Shopify print-on-demand apps

373 apps compete in this space on the Shopify App Store. The 20 below are ranked by merchant review volume among apps rated 4.5★ or higher, limited to apps that mention printing, from data updated November 2, 2026.

Print-on-demand apps produce your designs on blank products only after a customer orders — t-shirts, hoodies, mugs, posters, phone cases — and ship directly to the buyer. No inventory, no minimums, and margins set by the gap between the app's base cost and your retail price. The trade-offs are unit cost, print quality consistency and production time, all of which vary by provider and by product.

Ranked by review volume among apps rated 4.5 stars or higher. The leaders here either run their own facilities or aggregate a network of print partners; the first gives consistency, the second gives choice of location and price.

What to look for

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between print on demand and dropshipping?

Print on demand is a form of dropshipping where the product is customised with your design before shipping. You own the design and brand; the provider owns production and logistics.

How much can I make with print on demand on Shopify?

Margins per unit are typically modest after base cost and shipping, so profit comes from design, audience and repeat buyers rather than from any single sale. Treat it as a brand business, not an arbitrage.

Can I use several print-on-demand apps at once?

Yes, and many stores do to get the best product or price for each item. Keep an eye on shipping — an order with products from two providers ships as two parcels with two shipping charges.
