If you’re looking to start selling online with your own design or logo, Print-On-Demand is one of the best ways to create and sell products online with no inventory. Selling products on demand is a quick, easy, and sustainable way to offer unique items to your customers. To help you choose the best products to sell, we’ve gathered our top-selling print-on-demand products so you can jump right into the fun.
How Does Print-On-Demand Work?
Print-on-demand allows you to sell customized items without having to fulfill, ship, or carry inventory yourself. Companies like Bonfire offer this dropship fulfillment option, which allows you to design your unique products and share them with your audience. Your customers can then place their order, and it will be shipped directly to them. The order won’t be fulfilled until the order is placed, saving you time, money, and the hassle of carrying inventory. And since the items aren’t created until they are ordered, this zero-inventory model is better for the planet, too.

Choosing the Right Print-on-Demand Provider
When you’re looking for the best print-on-demand (POD) partner to bring your custom products to life, there are a few crucial factors to keep in mind: fulfillment and shipping times, product quality, and reliable customer support.
Fulfillment and Shipping Times Matter
Unlike traditional retail, print-on-demand orders are produced only after a customer makes a purchase. This means next-day shipping usually isn’t an option. However, at Bonfire, we work diligently to fulfill all orders as quickly as possible without sacrificing quality. Most Bonfire orders arrive within 7–14 business days after purchase, helping you deliver your custom apparel or merchandise promptly to your supporters or customers.
Prioritize High-Quality Products
Quality is key when choosing a POD provider. Look for reviews and testimonials to gauge how much care a company puts into printing and producing custom products. A reputable provider will maintain strict quality control standards to ensure your designs look their best on every item.
At Bonfire, we’re known for our high printing standards and commitment to quality assurance. We use premium materials and professional printing techniques so your custom products stand out and leave a lasting impression.
Exceptional Customer Support Is Essential
Even with the best systems in place, occasional issues can happen in any fulfillment process. That’s why it’s vital to partner with a POD company that offers responsive and helpful customer support. Take time to read through each platform’s reviews on sites like Trustpilot and G2.
Bonfire goes above and beyond with a generous 90-day hassle-free returns policy, one of the best in the print-on-demand industry. If your buyers aren’t thrilled with their orders, we make it right—no questions asked.
Plus, our dedicated support team is ready to help you every step of the way—from setting up your Bonfire store to designing your entire suite of custom products. At Bonfire, we’re not just a print-on-demand provider; we’re your partner in creating, selling, and delivering high-quality custom merchandise.

Print-On-Demand FAQs
What is print-on-demand?
Print-on-demand is a fulfillment option where orders are not fulfilled until they’re placed, and then are dropshipped directly to the buyer. This helps save on any up-front costs of inventory, stocking, fulfilling, customer service, and shipping.
What are the most profitable print-on-demand products?
The most profitable products are shirts, sweatshirts, and unique non-apparel items like hats, drinkware, eco-friendly items, and bags. With Bonfire, you can set your own selling prices, so you can determine the right blend of profit for your business.
What are the best print-on-demand websites?
There are many print-on-demand sites to choose from. When comparing vendors, look at differences in fulfilment and shipping times, quality of products in the catalog, returns policies, monthly fees, other fees, and customer support to narrow it down to what fits your needs best. At Bonfire, we strive to fulfill orders as quickly as possible while still offering the amazing quality we’re known for. Our customer support team is always ready and happy to help with any questions or concerns you may have.
How do I price print-on-demand products?
This will depend on the profit margin you want to make. To figure out your selling price, take the base cost of the item and add the profit you’d like to make from each sale. This will give you the target selling price of the product you’ve designed.
How do I market print-on-demand products?
Once you’ve designed your online store of print-on-demand products, we suggest sharing your new store with your community on social media and other owned channels. Make sure it’s linked in all social profiles and on your website.
