How Our Online Stores Work

We make the process simple from start to finish.

1. Tell Us About Your Group

2. Choose Your Products

We'll help you select apparel and merchandise that fit your group's needs and budget. Product availability and decoration methods will determine which items are best suited for your store.

3. Approve Your Designs

Provide your artwork or let us help create something for your group. All products and designs must be approved before your store launches.

4. Share Your Store

Once your store is ready, we'll provide a dedicated shopping link for you to share with your members, employees, families, and supporters.

5. We Handle Production

Customers place and pay for their orders online. Once the ordering period closes and any applicable minimums are met, we begin production.

Pickup and shipping arrangements are established before your store launches.
