Print on demand merchandise

Print on demand merchandise is planned for HLB. It would connect your HLB store to Printful or Printify so you could sell branded products, such as shirts or hats with your logo, made only to order. You would not hold inventory or handle production and shipping.

With Printful, you would install the app from the app marketplace, choose a Printful store (or create a new one) and import products into your HLB store. Product changes in Printful would sync to your store. For each new order, a matching order would be created in Printful, and shipping updates would come back, including partial and complete fulfillment. Imported products would not be published by default, and product descriptions would not be pulled in, so you would add descriptions and publish manually.

With Printify, you would generate an API token in your Printify account, paste it during install, and choose an existing Printify store or create one. You would import products you designed in Printify, and variants, prices and images would sync. Orders would be sent to Printify for production, and you would receive fulfillment updates. Imported Printify products would publish live by default, so you would review them before launch and turn on automatic fulfillment in Printify.

Planned details to know:

• For Printify, design work would happen inside Printify.
• Some products could only be delivered to certain regions, and an order would not be created for an unsupported delivery address.
• Uninstalling would not delete products you imported earlier.
• One Printful store could connect to multiple HLB store locations.
