@jmike04 not all of them, I had to remove all sweatshirts since it is impossible to zync the variations. Hope some one comes with a video about that. Do far , I just listed tshirts and mugs
@@VipMindsetClub did you have any difficulty connecting your shop? and when did you set it up? I am having difficulty with setting up a shipping template

I have uploaded existing listing I copy from my shopify and my etsy store. However, Amazon did not recognize simple variations as size / colors in sweatshirts. So I decided to remove them, just leaving tshirts and mugs.
Prinitify team please respond as there is alot of confusion in comments Section, correct me if i am wrong. 1. Sellers based in other countries such as Germany, UK, India , Australia , Pakistan can sell as well but print providers should be USA based only and this intergration only works for USA sellers means above countries Sellers order does not show up in printify automatically we have to complete orders one my one Manually (Like ebay ) ? m i right ? 2. Sellers based in other countries such as Germany, UK, India , Australia , Pakistan can sell as well but print providers should be USA based only and this intergration works for everyone just (like Etsy). 3. if your business based outside USA than this printify pdate is not for you it wont work if u live ouside USA , your business should be based in USA to work with this update. PLS which option is correct mention?
Hi, Sellers can be based in countries outside of the US, however, at this time, you can only sell products coming from US based print providers. Even though the print providers are located in the US, they can still ship internationally.
Step 1 of the registration process requires a United States residential address. Is this likely to change? I'm UK based but was looking to sell using US POD suppliers.
Hi! You do not need to be a US resident in order to sell via Amazon US. Anyone can sell on Amazon using the Printify integration as long as the published products are coming from US based print providers. We suggest signing up via the special Printify/Amazon link in order to receive direct support from Amazon sell.amazon.com/brand-invite?ld=RPUSSOA-Printify-96r3p5up
On the exemption part, It still asks for all the details from the top tabs. Size, model number, and other attributes. It's not as easy as you say in the video.
Hey, Not all product categories require an exemption. If the acknowledgement pop up doesn't show, then the item doesn't need exemption and you can publish from Printify as usual. You can read more here help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757557030161-How-can-I-request-a-GTIN-UPC-exemption-from-Amazon-US
Agreed! Selling Amazon POD, you will be competing with Amazon FBA sellers and Amazon Merch sellers, both of which offer 2-day delivery products. I have found success on Amazon with selling personalized products. If my product is personalized, the customer understands why the lead times are a little longer since it needs to be made custom for them.
I use Swift POD & Monster Digital to fulfill my orders on Printify but, I’m experiencing some difficulties with the shipping template on my Amazon POD page. In the dropdown shipping menu, only Swift POD is an option and not Monster Digital. The product in question is an item I am currently selling in my Etsy shop. I’ve copied the product to sell in my Amazon shop. The shipping information is correct on the Etsy side but, not on the Amazon side. Does anyone know how to remedy this? Thank you in advance.
That was very helpful, thank you. However, I believe that once it has been verified and listed in the Printify catalog, the application for brand exemption should not be necessary.
I wanted to see the product you had publish on amazon, just to know if the add to cart button was there for the product. I was using printful and the products that I uploaded onto amazon wasn't showing the add to cart button. If anyone is successful with the integration and is seeing the add to cart button for your product let me know
@@HelloCustom Stephen, are you uploading t-shirts/sweatshirts etc as generic items and not using the brand name in your descriptions therefor bypassing the need for brand approval?
I was using printful before did the whole brand approval, still no add to cart button under the product. I’m just here because printify integration is new and I was hopping some could explain how to get that button shown for the product
You've publicized it so well. It's gonna be a headache for everyone. I've been struggling for 24 hours to integrate with amazon. No one can solve the problem. There are no issues with the support team on printify. On amazon it's a horror. In 30 minutes 7 support people changed. Then it turned out to be the wrong department. No one knows anything. Before advertising, bring the case of integration to the end. If you have 100000 customers and all of them have errors, what will you do with them?

There is a lot of confusion about Brand Approval. When we apply for this, for example selling a Gildan 5000 shirt, do we upload pictures of a blank shirt or one with the design for EACH listing? Can we upload a photo with a design as a sample and then use different photos for our listings? I think we are all just confused as to if we need to do this as a one time thing per product or every product/listing? Would we need sample with no design, or with one design for each product we want brand approval for or every product AND design we want brand approval for?
Hi, You need to show the exact brand name from the tag of the item as it will be in your listing. Please see this article help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757723907217-How-can-I-apply-for-brand-approval-from-Amazon-US
@@ziziyao1051 Hi, Not quite. If you want to use the brand name in your listing title (ex. Gildan), then you need to have it approved. If you don't plan on using the brand name, then you don't need to do anything.
?? I am setting up my first shipping profile and it looks like they may have made some changes already. For the Transit time, it has a drop down of choices but all of them are shorter options ranging form 1-2 days up to 5-8 days, it doesn't have the 14-28 days shown in your video. The first provider and product I am trying to set up has a shipping time of 6-9 days so none of these transit times fit into what they offer, what should I do in that situation? Also, in the region section it separates out my state into its own section and it wont allow me to put it in with the other states. As a result it has a shorter transit time listed, the longest option it gives me is 2-4 days since it probably thinks I am shipping from my state, which I am not. This could potentially make all my shipments seem like they are late.... ???
Please tell us how to get buy box for our listings. For FBM T-shirts listings buy box is not showing. Also paid ads are not working. It makes it all useless.
Hi! Good question - For now coffee and other consumer packaged goods, like beauty and supplements, cannot be sold on Amazon via Printify, but it's something we are working on. :)
I was wondering how the returns would work also, could end up losing money with returns plus the $40 per month cost on amazon to sell is a bit risky if thats how it works, I think if its a custom personalised design you dont need to accept returns if thats possible and correct

Printify told me it’s an issue they are aware of and they’ll let me know when it is resolved. It’s only happening to certain people bc of where they live, but rn there’s nothing that can be done.
I am from Australia, I have tried to create a shipping template and do not see the 14-28 transit time also, I have had to setup a shipping address as the Printify return address in Texas as the location, as I don't see buyers sending items back to Australia as an option for them, which I would then be liable for those costs. Yes, I use Monster Digital, but since I have selected the state of Texas as my return address, Texas is being displayed as a separate (standard shipping) field with a quicker transit time, than the other US states. So my questions are: 1. As per OP, we can't see the 14-28 day option. 2. If we create a shipping template and our POD provider (for example: Monster Digital) is located in Florida, how does this reflect the transit time to customers, when we have a defined shipping from address (in my case Texas), other than Florida?
When I am doing the Product Code Exemptions section and I click "Acknowledge" and when I try to hit "Submit" at the bottom of the page it is saying the are 29 items that require my attention. Won't let me just submit. Help please! :)
Hi there! We do mention that Amazon automatically enrolls you in their professional paid plan. This plan is necessary for online sellers who need to set up shipping rates for items.
Amazon has an individual plan that is $0.99 /item sold and a professional plan that is $39.99 per month. Sadly, the individual plan does not allow you to integrate with apps like Printify or HelloCustom, as well as set shipping rates. Therefore, you must enroll in the professional plan to do Amazon POD.
@@mathieulaprise-tremblay1927 Hi! If you want to use the Amazon integration specifically, then yes, you'll need to pay $40/mo to Amazon for their professional plan.
no you're not because they are full of shit you are going to be charged on Amazon period okay it doesn't work like that then you got to sign up for FBA which she's left out okay been selling on Amazon for years that's the rules it's not just going to be able to post your stuff and everything is gravy sounds good though

Hi Some of the things are still not very clear to me so kindly answer these questions. Q1. My business is registered in India and using that I created my Amazon USA marketplace account, now I want to do FBM to USA Amazon customers using Printify, so I am confused, what options to select. While creating the new shipping template Should I keep my "ship from address" In india? I am asking this because my default ship from address is my indian business address. Q2. I will use US based print providers but How is amazon going to know if the products are coming from US or somewhere else, until I put a US address as ship from address? Q3. if I use US print providers and ship to US customers, will it fall under domestic shipping or international shipping? I am asking this because my default ship from address is India. Q4. If I have a 3PL service provider in USA can I use his address as the ship from address?
I don't understand the ASIN creation limit when creating listings from Printify. I only created 12 listings and then went back to change some prices and started getting "publishing error". How many listings are we allowed? This is very confusing! Please help clarify this.
Hi! Unfortunately, Amazon implements an ASIN creation limit, which we can't control. However, it'll reset at 0:00 GMT and you should be able to continue publishing.
Personally, I would check the box that says this product does not have a brand, where Amazon will set the brand as 'Generic.' I could see confusion from a customer if they click on the Adidas name for your listing and it took them to Adidas' Amazon store, where they do not see any of your products. Ideally, we would put our brand name there, but since we do not put our brand on the product/packaging, they are non-branded generic products by Amazon's definition.
@@HelloCustomyou still have to go through brand approval process if you want to sell brand names even if it is through Printify. That’s my understanding anyways.
Hi there! According to Amazon, you need to have pictures of all sides of the packaging. Having your brand on the packaging is not necessary, as long as it is definitely on the product. This article can explain more: help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757723907217-How-can-I-apply-for-brand-approval-from-Amazon-US
@@snappywing In that case if you want to sell items branded from Printify, I would set is as "Generic" as I did, and do not mention any brands within title, product description. Of course B+C and Gildan are recognized brands, I have tried a few times to get approval, with no success. Unless someone else chimes in on their success, I would like to know with Printify's method, have they actually had any approvals with it on their test accounts!?
Hi! For brand approval, you need to clearly show that the brand name on the tag of your product matches that in your listing help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757723907217-How-can-I-apply-for-brand-approval-from-Amazon-US. You can have your design on the item.
Do all the variants list in a single listing or are they listing as separate listings?? That was a big problem with the printul integration? Shopify marketplace connection lists all variants in a single listing..
Yes, all variants will be their own listing. They will be the 'child' listing to a shared 'parent' listing. This is just how Amazon works, so each variation can rank separately. If you have a shirt with 10 colors and 6 sizes, this will be 60 child listings on Amazon. Therefore, I would recommend optimizing the title, description, and bullet points from inside of Printify so they get applied to all variant listings. I think Printify is also working on the ability to swap out your mockups, so you don't have to do that each time too.
@@HelloCustom So how would one go about getting all of those child listings under 1 parent listing? So on the listing page you can toggle between colors or sizes or whatever.
All the videos about this on CZcams have the Hello Customs guy included. To do personalization with the Printify Amazon integration do we have to use Hello Customs? Or can we do things the same way as in Etsy? If our orders are set to fulfill manually???
Hi there! You do not have to use HelloCustom, even though it's a great resource! However, setting your order approval settings to manual should also work for Amazon.
@@Printify While Etsy is more tailored toward custom and personalized products, Amazon has stricter rules, so ensure you're meeting Amazon's guidelines when offering personalized items. Communicating with your customers about customizations might require more manual interaction on Amazon than on Etsy. If you handle personalization manually and ensure each order is fulfilled based on the customer’s requests, you can operate without the need for Hello Customs. Just make sure you're adhering to Amazon's fulfillment timelines and customer communication rules.
Where can we add customization? If we want to add a name or date to a tshirt, for example. I know how to do it in Etsy, but don't see how to integrate that between Amazon and Printify. Thanks!
Hi there! When creating your listing in Amazon, there should be an option to add customization. You'll then need to follow the usual personalization process in Printify, the same as you would with Etsy.
I am trying to sell my comfort colors shirts on Amazon. Do I need to get brand approval for comfort colors brand? Or just an exemption? If I do need comfort colors brand approval what do I upload for packaging photos and who is the manufacturer Printify or comfort colors??
Hi there! You do not need brand approval to sell a CC shirt unless you plan to use the brand name in the listing. To check if it needs an exemption, as the video suggests, apply for it and see if you get a pop up which says that an exemption is required. If that pop up doesn't show up, you do not need an exemption.

Hi there! Stephen from Hello Custom is correct! Also, regarding notifications, you can see your sales by either logging onto seller central or opening the seller phone app. In the settings tab you will also see a Notification Preferences section where you can configure how you receive notifications from Amazon.

I'm thinking of selling personalized t-shirts on Amazon with Printify, but I'm confused about it. People who shop on Amazon are used to being able to return products they buy for no reason. When I was selling on Etsy, I was able to let the customer know that I wouldn't accept returns. Is there a similar feature on Amazon?
Hi there! Amazon has a free 30 day returns policy. The policy allow buyers to return most items purchased on Amazon.com for a refund or replacement within 30 days of the estimated delivery date. We recommend incorporating a small margin into your product retail prices to accommodate potential returns. Be sure to periodically review this margin based on customer behavior. We can also suggest to have non-defective products returned to the merchants address. Merchant’s can set up their return address by navigating to their Amazon account and click the gear icon in the upper right corner and then selecting Shipping Settings. Then click on the “General Shipping Settings” tab and update the default shipping address to either their personal or business address In case you merchants don’t have a US based return address they can either provide a pre-paid return shipping label for their international return address or they can issue a returnless refund. Amazon’s return policy is available sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/G200708210

This should be doable by creating a new parent listing, but it will be very manual. Step 1. You will publish the adult shirt and baby bodysuit product to Amazon. This will create all of the child listings. Step 2. You will then go to create a new Amazon listing, not from Printify, select the variation options you would like, and instead of inputting the SKU, you will plug in the ASINs generated from the child listings in step 1. This new listing you created will act as the new parent listing to the child listings you added via ASIN and group everything together under one Amazon listing. There are many CZcams videos on how to group Amazon listings together for more detailed help 👍

A sole proprietor is still a business, even if you are just 1 person. You can even be a 1-member LLC. It has to do with how you're classified with the IRS, and if the business fails, can your assets, like your car & house be seized to pay off your creditors.

If I have to cover an extra $40 a month subscription then that is probably not a good idea but if I can drop to the 99c fee per item free subscription and stay linked to printify then that would be worth trying.
I see that to get approved to use Gildan 1800 Sweatshirts Name in the title or description we'd have to show an invoice with a purchase of no less than 10 shirts. Is this correct? Do you have to purchase 10 of each type such as T-shirt, sweatshirt, and Hoodie? Can you sell them w/o approval if you don't mention the Brand Name?
Hi, You do not need brand approval if you don't use the name in the listing. It will be set as "Generic" help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757723907217-How-can-I-apply-for-brand-approval-from-Amazon-US
Hi there! Amazon has a few options regarding how sellers can set up their return address. This article explains those options: sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/G201711720?mons_sel_mkid=amzn1.mp.o.ATVPDKIKX0DER&mons_sel_mcid=amzn1.merchant.o.AM5QTDNH1NTRQ&mons_sel_persist=true
Yep! Amazon merch is Amazon's own POD system. You need to be approved for Merch separately from Amazon Seller Central. With Amazon, they act as the printer, customer service and return agent. The seller/artist has no say in the quality of the product. With Amazon Seller Central, you're in charge of customer service and making sure your product gets shipped out on time. I hope that helps!
Lots of great responses here! Only thing we would add is that regarding shipping, that is still handled by the print provider you choose, however you do need to set up rates yourself through your seller central settings.
And another question regarding the use of Brands in listings - to submit an application I need real photos, not mock-ups - correct? But if I do not live in the USA! And getting an order is very problematic - is it possible to order these photos from you or could you tell me where I could get them?
Hi there! Glad you got the help you needed. Just incase, here's a great article that breaks down the process in detail. help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757723907217-How-can-I-apply-for-brand-approval-from-Amazon-US
Hi there! Yes, you do not need a US residential address to set up an account and sell on Amazon. Sellers can be based anywhere as long as they set up an Amazon US seller account and use US-based print providers.
I set the business country to the United States, and registered the business in Canada, but after that, it only allows U.S. addresses. What should I do?
Hi there! Sellers can have their business registered anywhere and be able to sell on Amazon US. You also do not need a US residential address to set up an account and sell on Amazon and can be based anywhere. We're not sure which addresses you're trying to add, but if the issues continues, please reach out to Amazon support.
Hi there! When setting up their Amazon US seller account, users will be automatically enrolled in the Professional plan. Although you have the option to switch to the free Individual plan, the Professional plan is required to access all the features necessary for successfully connecting to Printify, such as setting up shipping templates, which can only be done with the Professional plan.
I have a pop up store I want to integrate with Amazon but pop up doesn't allow for free shipping so I can't offer that on Amazon? What address do we put in Amazon for returns since Printify handles Pop Up returns and customer service. So how will that work if customer has a complaint? Pop Up mock ups don't work for all my products. Can I delete the pop up mock ups once I make the Amazon listing and add my own there?
Hi there! Printify Pop Up is a separate integration and cannot be directly linked with Amazon through our platform. You can offer free shipping on amazon, which you can learn about here: help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757509372177-How-can-I-set-up-free-shipping-on-Amazon-US Regarding returns, Amazon's US return policy covers almost all products including POD products. Customers have the option to return any product within 30 days, even if they’ve simply changed their mind.We recommend incorporating a small margin into your product retail prices to accommodate potential returns. Be sure to periodically review this margin based on customer behavior. To minimize the impact on your business, consider having non-defective products returned to your address, allowing you to either resell them or use them for social media campaigns, such as giveaways. You can set this up by using your home or business address as the return address in Amazon US. Regarding mockups on Amazon, you can manually upload your own mockups to your amazon listing through the seller center.
What is printify shipping address to add into Amazon shipping address settings.The default location to tell Amazon from where the products will be sipped to the customers?
Hi there! Amazon has a few options regarding how sellers can set up their return address. This article explains those options: sellercentral.amazon.com/help/hub/reference/G201711720?mons_sel_mkid=amzn1.mp.o.ATVPDKIKX0DER&mons_sel_mcid=amzn1.merchant.o.AM5QTDNH1NTRQ&mons_sel_persist=true
@@Printify so could I set default return address as Printify address, as products would be shipped from Printify warehouse or their print providers' warehouse?
is there any problem charging little more for shipping? I do all manual orders on etsy and charging 6.99 shipping for shirt no one ever complained. little bit of that helps with all the fees. wondering if amazon has any issues with something like that?
Hi there! You are able to set your own rates, the shipping will still be charged to your Printify account so as long as you recoup those shipping costs, you should be good. Just remember that higher shipping costs in general can discourage a buyer from purchasing your item, so be aware of how much extra you charge and the impact that will have on your buyer.
So if I design a T-shirt using Bella+Canva or Gildan on printify, but don't mention their names at all on my listing, does it qualify for product code exemption and publish on Amazon?
Hi, Product code exemption and brand approval are different processes. Please follow these steps help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757557030161-How-can-I-request-a-GTIN-UPC-exemption-from-Amazon-US
If I want to use a brand name like Bella Canvas, can I photograph a t-shirt I have with a design on it or does it have to be plain when I ask for permission?
Hi, Please see this article help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757723907217-How-can-I-apply-for-brand-approval-from-Amazon-US. The brand name submitted for brand approval should exactly match the brand on the product tag. Before applying, double-check the way the brand is written on the tag. You can have your design on the shirt.
Hi there! Since Printify doesn’t receive payments directly from your sales channel when a sale occurs, you’ll need to set up a payment method within your Printify account to cover production and shipping costs. You can either link a credit or debit card for automatic payments or add funds manually to your account balance.
Yes! You don't have to register your brand with Amazon, but you do not to set up a sellers account and register for any exemptions that are necessary for your products.

1. Sellers based in other countries such as Germany, UK, India , Australia , Pakistan can sell as well but print providers should be USA based only and this intergration only works for USA sellers means above countries Sellers order does not show up in printify automatically we have to complete orders one my one Manually (Like ebay ) ? m i right ?

PLS which option is correct mention?
2 answer from what I understood.
Hi, Sellers can be based in countries outside of the US, however, at this time, you can only sell products coming from US based print providers. Even though the print providers are located in the US, they can still ship internationally.
Helpful thank you. This is the integration we have been waiting for.
So in order to for this integration to work we have to pay Amazon $40 PER MONTH?!
Yes
Step 1 of the registration process requires a United States residential address. Is this likely to change? I'm UK based but was looking to sell using US POD suppliers.
it is very frustrating that the UK are always left out. still waiting for pop up shop for the last two years.
Hi! You do not need to be a US resident in order to sell via Amazon US. Anyone can sell on Amazon using the Printify integration as long as the published products are coming from US based print providers. We suggest signing up via the special Printify/Amazon link in order to receive direct support from Amazon sell.amazon.com/brand-invite?ld=RPUSSOA-Printify-96r3p5up
On the exemption part, It still asks for all the details from the top tabs. Size, model number, and other attributes. It's not as easy as you say in the video.
Hey, Not all product categories require an exemption. If the acknowledgement pop up doesn't show, then the item doesn't need exemption and you can publish from Printify as usual.

Customers are going to expect Amazon Prime shipping. Having an Amazon store sounds great, but you don’t get the free prime shipping
Agreed! Selling Amazon POD, you will be competing with Amazon FBA sellers and Amazon Merch sellers, both of which offer 2-day delivery products. I have found success on Amazon with selling personalized products. If my product is personalized, the customer understands why the lead times are a little longer since it needs to be made custom for them.

You've publicized it so well. It's gonna be a headache for everyone. I've been struggling for 24 hours to integrate with amazon. No one can solve the problem. There are no issues with the support team on printify. On amazon it's a horror. In 30 minutes 7 support people changed. Then it turned out to be the wrong department. No one knows anything. Before advertising, bring the case of integration to the end. If you have 100000 customers and all of them have errors, what will you do with them?

There is a lot of confusion about Brand Approval. When we apply for this, for example selling a Gildan 5000 shirt, do we upload pictures of a blank shirt or one with the design for EACH listing? Can we upload a photo with a design as a sample and then use different photos for our listings?
I think we are all just confused as to if we need to do this as a one time thing per product or every product/listing? Would we need sample with no design, or with one design for each product we want brand approval for or every product AND design we want brand approval for?
I have the exact queries to what "fancyflamingoxo" has just mentioned, this is important than just having "generic" tshirt being displayed.

@@TonyaStephensOnline and other fees for sales ?
?? I am setting up my first shipping profile and it looks like they may have made some changes already. For the Transit time, it has a drop down of choices but all of them are shorter options ranging form 1-2 days up to 5-8 days, it doesn't have the 14-28 days shown in your video. The first provider and product I am trying to set up has a shipping time of 6-9 days so none of these transit times fit into what they offer, what should I do in that situation? Also, in the region section it separates out my state into its own section and it wont allow me to put it in with the other states. As a result it has a shorter transit time listed, the longest option it gives me is 2-4 days since it probably thinks I am shipping from my state, which I am not. This could potentially make all my shipments seem like they are late.... ???
Please tell us how to get buy box for our listings. For FBM T-shirts listings buy box is not showing. Also paid ads are not working. It makes it all useless.

Has anybody had a problem with changing shipping times to 14-28 days? I have been with Amazon support for hours and can’t seem to find a solution
Yes, I am currently stuck on this.
Me three. I thought it was something I did. Any help out there
Printify told me it’s an issue they are aware of and they’ll let me know when it is resolved. It’s only happening to certain people bc of where they live, but rn there’s nothing that can be done.
I'm having the same issues.
I am from Australia, I have tried to create a shipping template and do not see the 14-28 transit time also, I have had to setup a shipping address as the Printify return address in Texas as the location, as I don't see buyers sending items back to Australia as an option for them, which I would then be liable for those costs.
Yes, I use Monster Digital, but since I have selected the state of Texas as my return address, Texas is being displayed as a separate (standard shipping) field with a quicker transit time, than the other US states.
So my questions are:
1. As per OP, we can't see the 14-28 day option.
2. If we create a shipping template and our POD provider (for example: Monster Digital) is located in Florida, how does this reflect the transit time to customers, when we have a defined shipping from address (in my case Texas), other than Florida?
When I am doing the Product Code Exemptions section and I click "Acknowledge" and when I try to hit "Submit" at the bottom of the page it is saying the are 29 items that require my attention. Won't let me just submit. Help please! :)
Hi, Please reach out to our support team
I'm getting the same error.
I don't see anything on here that states that you will be charged a $39.99 fee every month. Am I doing something wrong?
Hi there! We do mention that Amazon automatically enrolls you in their professional paid plan. This plan is necessary for online sellers who need to set up shipping rates for items.
Amazon has an individual plan that is $0.99 /item sold and a professional plan that is $39.99 per month. Sadly, the individual plan does not allow you to integrate with apps like Printify or HelloCustom, as well as set shipping rates. Therefore, you must enroll in the professional plan to do Amazon POD.
@printify so we have to pay 40$/month to be selling via printify?

Q2. I will use US based print providers but How is amazon going to know if the products are coming from US or somewhere else, until I put a US address as ship from address?
Q3. if I use US print providers and ship to US customers, will it fall under domestic shipping or international shipping? I am asking this because my default ship from address is India.
Q4. If I have a 3PL service provider in USA can I use his address as the ship from address?
hello , do you have any plans to expand this integration to sellers in other countries?
Hello! Amazon is available to all sellers. You do not need to be a US resident.
I don't understand the ASIN creation limit when creating listings from Printify. I only created 12 listings and then went back to change some prices and started getting "publishing error". How many listings are we allowed? This is very confusing! Please help clarify this.

What photos do you upload for the PACKAGING to get comfort colors brand approval?? Ty!
Personally, I would check the box that says this product does not have a brand, where Amazon will set the brand as 'Generic.' I could see confusion from a customer if they click on the Adidas name for your listing and it took them to Adidas' Amazon store, where they do not see any of your products. Ideally, we would put our brand name there, but since we do not put our brand on the product/packaging, they are non-branded generic products by Amazon's definition.
@@HelloCustomyou still have to go through brand approval process if you want to sell brand names even if it is through Printify. That’s my understanding anyways.
Hi there! According to Amazon, you need to have pictures of all sides of the packaging. Having your brand on the packaging is not necessary, as long as it is definitely on the product. This article can explain more:

Do all the variants list in a single listing or are they listing as separate listings?? That was a big problem with the printul integration? Shopify marketplace connection lists all variants in a single listing..
Hey! They should list as one listing. If a particular product is publishing as multiple listings, please let our support team know!
Yes, all variants will be their own listing. They will be the 'child' listing to a shared 'parent' listing. This is just how Amazon works, so each variation can rank separately.
If you have a shirt with 10 colors and 6 sizes, this will be 60 child listings on Amazon. Therefore, I would recommend optimizing the title, description, and bullet points from inside of Printify so they get applied to all variant listings. I think Printify is also working on the ability to swap out your mockups, so you don't have to do that each time too.
@@HelloCustom So how would one go about getting all of those child listings under 1 parent listing? So on the listing page you can toggle between colors or sizes or whatever.
All the videos about this on CZcams have the Hello Customs guy included. To do personalization with the Printify Amazon integration do we have to use Hello Customs? Or can we do things the same way as in Etsy? If our orders are set to fulfill manually???
Hi there! You do not have to use HelloCustom, even though it's a great resource! However, setting your order approval settings to manual should also work for Amazon.
@@Printify While Etsy is more tailored toward custom and personalized products, Amazon has stricter rules, so ensure you're meeting Amazon's guidelines when offering personalized items. Communicating with your customers about customizations might require more manual interaction on Amazon than on Etsy.
If you handle personalization manually and ensure each order is fulfilled based on the customer’s requests, you can operate without the need for Hello Customs. Just make sure you're adhering to Amazon's fulfillment timelines and customer communication rules.
Where can we add customization? If we want to add a name or date to a tshirt, for example. I know how to do it in Etsy, but don't see how to integrate that between Amazon and Printify. Thanks!
Hi there! When creating your listing in Amazon, there should be an option to add customization. You'll then need to follow the usual personalization process in Printify, the same as you would with Etsy.
I am trying to sell my comfort colors shirts on Amazon. Do I need to get brand approval for comfort colors brand? Or just an exemption? If I do need comfort colors brand approval what do I upload for packaging photos and who is the manufacturer Printify or comfort colors??
Hi there!
You do not need brand approval to sell a CC shirt unless you plan to use the brand name in the listing. To check if it needs an exemption, as the video suggests, apply for it and see if you get a pop up which says that an exemption is required. If that pop up doesn't show up, you do not need an exemption.

Off the personalized option is horrible in Amazon...any help?
Hey! The personalization process should be the same as other sales channels. help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/4483630218641-Can-I-sell-personalized-products-using-Printify
Is it global because I'm from Kenya will this method work here ?
Hi! Yes, anyone can sell as long as it's through Amazon US. :)
I'm thinking of selling personalized t-shirts on Amazon with Printify, but I'm confused about it. People who shop on Amazon are used to being able to return products they buy for no reason. When I was selling on Etsy, I was able to let the customer know that I wouldn't accept returns. Is there a similar feature on Amazon?
Hi there!
Amazon has a free 30 day returns policy. The policy allow buyers to return most items purchased on Amazon.com for a refund or replacement within 30 days of the estimated delivery date.
We recommend incorporating a small margin into your product retail prices to accommodate potential returns. Be sure to periodically review this margin based on customer behavior.
We can also suggest to have non-defective products returned to the merchants address. Merchant’s can set up their return address by navigating to their Amazon account and click the gear icon in the upper right corner and then selecting Shipping Settings. Then click on the “General Shipping Settings” tab and update the default shipping address to either their personal or business address
In case you merchants don’t have a US based return address they can either provide a pre-paid return shipping label for their international return address or they can issue a returnless refund.
Amazon’s return policy is available

I'm concerned with production time. I have been setting up my account and there's only one day handling time, which means that the products that take more time in product will get late to the customer and that is definitely going to affect the account's health. I'm still not sure how this is going to work. Can this be fixed, specially with custom orders.
Hi! You should be able to change the handling time. We recommend 5 days.
Hello there! Thank you for the video! Im wondering how can we add the shipping costs to the items? Im assuming thru Printify but where exactly?
Hey! You'll need to do it in Amazon. Check out the segment on creating shipping templates at 5:13
Hi i have uk registered amazon seller account.can i sell products if i choose usa print provider?If i create USA print provider template then connect to printify so who will be the customer region uk or USA?
Hey! You'll need to create an Amazon US seller's account.
I am trying to do the blank product

But it did not allow me to submit…….
Hi,
can i connect amazon individual account with printify?
No, you need to use the business account.
I tried adding a tumbler like you do in the video and nothing pops up for me? I am not wanting to assume that no GTIN is required especially since it popped up for you. What can I do about this? I don't want to get in trouble for not having the correct exemptions. Thanks!
Hi! Some product categories do not require an exemption, meaning the pop-up will not appear and instead you'll be taken to the product listing page on Amazon. In this case, you can quit the process on Amazon and proceed to publish from Printify as usual. help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757557030161-How-can-I-request-a-GTIN-UPC-exemption-from-Amazon-US
@@Printify thank you! That's what I thought but in the video you put in a tumbler. You got a pop up for GTIN exemption. I did the same thing but got no pop up.
Wouldn't everyone selling tumblers need one?
Hello! Is registration only available for US residents?
Hi! Nope, anyone can sell on Amazon! Just keep in mind only US print providers can be used, however, they can still ship internationally.
@@Printify Ok! Thank you! Tell me, when registering an account on Amazon, should I choose the country of actual residence? And will I be able to sell in conjunction with Printify without problems?
@@pashokkolesnikov9740 Hey, yes. Amazon is very strict with that. Be sure that all your info matches across your Amazon account, bank accounts, etc.

hi there! why we cannot put printify mock up on Amazon? and why we need to buy sample to be approved? we need to buy sample for each product? and what kind of muck up are allowed then?
Hi! You can use Printify mockups in your Amazon listing. However, if you are applying for brand approval, then you will need to order one sample of the item with the brand you'd like approved (ex. adidas, Champion, Gildan, etc.) and submit a photo of the tag. help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757723907217-How-can-I-apply-for-brand-approval-from-Amazon-US
how can you sell different products in one amazon listing? ie an adult shirt and a baby bodysuit?
Hi there! Sadly this is not possible with this integration.
This should be doable by creating a new parent listing, but it will be very manual.
Step 1. You will publish the adult shirt and baby bodysuit product to Amazon. This will create all of the child listings.
Step 2. You will then go to create a new Amazon listing, not from Printify, select the variation options you would like, and instead of inputting the SKU, you will plug in the ASINs generated from the child listings in step 1.
This new listing you created will act as the new parent listing to the child listings you added via ASIN and group everything together under one Amazon listing.
There are many CZcams videos on how to group Amazon listings together for more detailed help 👍
One thing I am confused about is I added an ornament and it became the parent listing to all the other ornaments that I loaded up after is that supposed to happen? They are all listed as variations
Hi there!
Theres a lot of factors that go into arranging variations which makes it hard to answer this question. But, this article we found breaks this process down and can provide the answer we think you're looking for. Check it out!

If you already sell through Amazon, as in you're a publisher (Author), do you create a new account or simply use the already existing account?
Hey! You should be able to use an existing account as long as it's an Amazon US seller's account.

I created the individual account by mistake initially. How do I go back and update to PROFESSIONAL so that I can integrate my printify store to Amazon? I have gone through to upgrade my account and still does not update. Any insight to what I am doing wrong?
Hi there!
Here is some advice from Amazon that may be able to help
To switch from an Individual selling plan to a Professional selling plan:
- From your seller account, click Settings, and then select Account Info.
- On the left side, under Seller Account Information, go to the Your Services section and click Manage.
- In the Sell on Amazon row, under the You are signed up for section, click Upgrade.
- Review the terms on the next page, and then click Proceed to Upgrade.
- You will be returned to Your Services. A message will appear indicating that the upgrade process has started.

Is it takes two days to show your products on Amazon from printify?
Hi there! After publishing, your product will be visible to buyers within 1 Day on Amazon.
Once I ask for exemption for a mug lets say, how do I just transfer listing from printify store to amazon store instead of having to create all new listings?

Yes, you can absolutely duplicate products from one store to another store (in this case, your Amazon store), you can learn about the process through this handy article.

Hi There..is this only for USA registered businesses? I am located outside the USA so please let me know.
Hey! You can sell from outside of the US. Just keep in mind you'll need to sell with US print providers only, however, they can still ship internationally.
I live in Mexico. I set up my address in Mexico. So when I created the shipping template my Mexican address was there. Plus I want to sell 2 different products with different print providers with different addresses.
So seems like one address is linked to all of the shipping templates. I guess I should change my address to my main print provider's address. Am I right?
Hi! For now, please use your business address as the default shipping address.
@@Printify Thank you. I used the provider's address to continue. When I finish the process as the video showed I didn't get any massage and I am wondering if I have to keep waiting for those 48hours. I checked on "View Selling Applications" if my request is pending but nothing is shown there :S
Hi
So start Merch on demand or FbA account?

Can you please help with brand approval using Printify? For example, I want to be able to use my business or brand name instead of GENERIC. So, when Amazon requests you to take a picture of your product, can we say just buy one product like a t-shirt, have you print our neck tag with our logo and would that be all we would need? After doing that and if approved by Amazon does that mean every product we sell on Amazon under our brand name has to have our logo on it?
Hi, Yes, you only need to do it once. However, please note that brand approval and brand registry are two different processes. Brand approval is obtaining permission to use an existing brand's name in your title (ex. adidas, Champion, Gildan, etc.). Brand registry is specifically if you own the brand. help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757723907217-How-can-I-apply-for-brand-approval-from-Amazon-US
Printify has printing in the UK, but you have stated Amazon is for the USA only. Seems a great shame
Hey! Anybody from anywhere can sell on Amazon using Printify. You just need to create an Amazon US seller's account and use US based print providers.
Hi, I'm from India, and I have an old Amazon USA marketplace account that I created using my Indian company's details. When I went to my shipping settings, my default shipping address shows my Indian address. What should I do about this since this business will be FBM (Fulfilled by Merchant)? Will Amazon have an issue because my default address is in India, and do I need a U.S. address for this?
Hi! Yes, we recommend keeping your business address as the shipping address for now.
@@Printify Is amazon going to allow this? because I am going to be selling to American customers and aren’t they going to say, how are you going to do FBM to American customers, sitting in india?
Hi! Thank you for this. Quick clarification on the business vs. individual sign up. Can you explain a bit more? I'm a sole proprietorship business, so that would still be individual, right? Which is better, indiv. Or business? ...
A sole proprietor is still a business, even if you are just 1 person. You can even be a 1-member LLC. It has to do with how you're classified with the IRS, and if the business fails, can your assets, like your car & house be seized to pay off your creditors.
@Adventureboundcruisetravel yep, totally get that. What I'm trying to say is that technically, I fit in both categories, and I want to know the positives and negatives to both. Probably should have worded it better in the first place, lol.
Hey! We suggest consulting with an accountant or attorney in this case as it's very specific to your business. Keep in mind, if you register as a business first, you won't be able to change it back to individual later.

Regarding the UPC & GTIN, it’s asking me to fill a bunch of product descriptions information. Am I doing something wrong? I thought all one had to do is click the two boxes mentioned and that’s it.

So it says I would have to be signed up on the Amazon $40 a month subscription to be able to link to printify but do I then need to stay on that subscription to stay connected to printify?
The $40 is payable to Amazon alone, not Printify, Printify takes its own fees when you sell, as does Amazon.
@@Adventureboundcruisetravel Yes, I get that, what I mean is, they said you have to be on the $40 Amazon subscription to initially link the account to printify. The question is do I then need to stay on the $40 Amazon subscription to remain linked to Printify? I was considering setting it up and just adding a few of my listings from Etsy to kind of dip my toe in the water and build up from there. If I have to cover an extra $40 a month subscription then that is probably not a good idea but if I can drop to the 99c fee per item free subscription and stay linked to printify then that would be worth trying.
Hey! Yeah, you'll need to remain on the subscription plan for the integration to work properly.
I see different answers to this question, but can I connect my Printify if my Amazon seller account is not registered in the US?
Hi, You must create an account with Amazon US, but you do not need to be a registered US business.
I see that to get approved to use Gildan 1800 Sweatshirts Name in the title or description we'd have to show an invoice with a purchase of no less than 10 shirts. Is this correct? Do you have to purchase 10 of each type such as T-shirt, sweatshirt, and Hoodie? Can you sell them w/o approval if you don't mention the Brand Name?
Hi, You do not need brand approval if you don't use the name in the listing. It will be set as "Generic" help.printify.com/hc/en-us/articles/26757723907217-How-can-I-apply-for-brand-approval-from-Amazon-US
Which return address should I add to my Amazon seller account? It's currently showing my home address on Amazon, so I need to change it, right?
Hi there! Amazon has a few options regarding how sellers can set up their return address. This article explains those options:

Is this different from Amazon Merch?
Yep! Amazon merch is Amazon's own POD system. You need to be approved for Merch separately from Amazon Seller Central. With Amazon, they act as the printer, customer service and return agent. The seller/artist has no say in the quality of the product. With Amazon Seller Central, you're in charge of customer service and making sure your product gets shipped out on time.
I hope that helps!
@@terrachandler9136you forget to mention the most important part! Amazon Merch have the prime badge and 2 day shipping!
Lots of great responses here! Only thing we would add is that regarding shipping, that is still handled by the print provider you choose, however you do need to set up rates yourself through your seller central settings.
And another question regarding the use of Brands in listings - to submit an application I need real photos, not mock-ups - correct? But if I do not live in the USA! And getting an order is very problematic - is it possible to order these photos from you or could you tell me where I could get them?

Pop Up mock ups don't work for all my products. Can I delete the pop up mock ups once I make the Amazon listing and add my own there?

Printify Pop Up is a separate integration and cannot be directly linked with Amazon through our platform.

Regarding returns, Amazon's US return policy covers almost all products including POD products. Customers have the option to return any product within 30 days, even if they’ve simply changed their mind.We recommend incorporating a small margin into your product retail prices to accommodate potential returns. Be sure to periodically review this margin based on customer behavior. To minimize the impact on your business, consider having non-defective products returned to your address, allowing you to either resell them or use them for social media campaigns, such as giveaways. You can set this up by using your home or business address as the return address in Amazon US.
Regarding mockups on Amazon, you can manually upload your own mockups to your amazon listing through the seller center.

But does Printify receive the money on time by amazon or do we need to pay to printify in advance and then get refunded by amazon?
Hi there!

You can either link a credit or debit card for automatic payments or add funds manually to your account balance.
Can you just start listing if you don’t want to put n any brand?
