You should know THIS before starting on Redbubble! | The PROS and CONS of selling on Redbubble

- If you've ever considered signing up for a print on demand site, in particular Redbubble, but weren't sure if it's worth your while, this video is for you! I'll go over all of the pros and cons of selling your artwork on a site like Redbubble, and hopefully by the end of my video you'll know if you should sign up or not! As great as Redbubble sounds, it might not be the right fit for everyone, so I'll be breaking down why I like selling on it, what could be better about it, and some examples of things I've experienced during my time on Redbubble (and similar sites). Let me know if you have any other pros or cons for Redbubble that I haven't thought of, since I probably won't have the same outlook I had when I was just starting out! Either way, I highly recommend trying Redbubble out for yourself and seeing where it can take you!

Redbubble spends more time censoring critics than they do addressing the mass intellectual property violations in their marketplace. It's more profitable to pay an employee to monitor social media than to remove content that they KNOW is intellectual property infringement. Redbubble has a long and sordid history of going to court with copyright holders instead of moderating the content. The reason for this is simple; they would lose MILLIONS if they actually removed the violating content. Other POD companies such as Threadless, Spreadhsirt, CafePress, Society6 and Teespring all use proprietary software to purge known copyrighted works before they are even uploaded. Redbubble has the means to do the same thing. Martin Hosking CHOOSES not to use the software. They know exactly what they are doing. They know most copyright holders won;t pursue litigation and the ones who do will be tied up in court for so long that the company will make millions on their works before a judge orders its removal. This company hides behind "third party" status and tries to claim the copyright moderation is the obligation of the shop keeper or artist uploading the design. They refuse to take any responsibility for it. No other POD company on the market behaves this way. This is a terrible company and if you are shopping or selling on this platform YOU are part of the problem. You are enabling these people to steal from other artists and copyright holders. Many artists try to dismiss this by telling themselves "everybody does it" or "Redbubble is doing the best they can to prevent it". Neither of those statements is true. Every POD company DOES NOT do this. And even if they did, how does that make it right in any way? No, the truth is, the people selling on this platform need the money and they don't want to sacrifice it over morals and ethics. Folks, this is why the world we live in sucks. Everybody wants to virtue signal and pretend they care, but in actuality it's all just about image. Redbubble will be the first to make a post on social media about blacklivesmatter or LGBTQ rights, but then they allow mass intellectual property theft on their platform and rob people every day. Does that seem like a company that cares to you? If you are selling or buying on Redbubble you are part of the problem. This company could not exist if you didn't shop or sell here. Plain and simple. These people don't lose any sleep at night over the outright theft of copyright. But if it became a societal issue that they could slap on a shirt and wear around town to show everyone what wonderful human beings they were, they'd be all about it. They'd wear this cause like they wear LGBTQ rights or Blacklivesmatter. The faux outrage would be off the charts. But they can steal copyright all day without your average person knowing about it. Suddenly being a good human isn't their identity. It's what you do when nobody is looking that defines who you are. And this company doesn't want you to see who they really are. That's why they spend more time trying to censor blog comments than simply removing the copyright protected works from their marketplace. They can't even deny it.

THANK YOU!!!!! so long winded people don't realize this actually HURTS your engagement and views
Remember, You don't have to be good to get started but you do have to get started if you ever want to be any good. Get in the game guys! YOU can do it! There is so much FREE information online like these videos to learn what you need to know to get started. :)
Not gonna lie is kinda hard to sell items, but if you want something you gotta keep it up!! ❤️
How its going with you after 2 monthes now?
Yessssirrr🌟🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
do you need to add Paypal or bank account for payment?
I mean can you withdraw the money later?
as i don't have any bank account or PayPal account now
@@sabitalrazi9936 yes you have to add a payment, you can do paypal acc its so easy to make.
@@jiMaSese but n my country PayPal is not available dear😔
So basically, I dont have to pay everytime someone purchases, I just post my design, Redbubble prints it and I get a percentage of the profit?
Exactly! :)
@Nana Kobi-Genfi actually I don't think so.
@Nana Kobi-Genfi Depends how much you're earning, check your local laws!
I should have read the comments before I made my posting 🤔 I do believe that is the case!!!
@@AlexandraStrambu Thank you! This is exactly what I wanted to hear.
I’ve ordered a sweatshirt, a water bottle and I ordered 2 of the same masks a few days ago.
I’m really happy with the sweatshirt and the water bottle. The delivery came between the 2 dates they mentioned when I ordered so no delays.
I’m just happy I can buy South Park stuff for an affordable price.
SouthPark is heavily copyrighted, so just know if a store is selling that kind of stuff it could be here today, gone tomorrow.
I’m gonna buy a Kirby shirt and I’m just confused on how to purchase it? I use credit card so would that work?
Isn't it WEIRD that Redbubble sets TONS of reviews on a product you've made when you've never actually made a sale?
I think it has something to do with the quality of the products sinds they are the same
That’s what I was wondering
It's the quality of their materials. Also if someone returns the product due to low quality. They return the money but don't take it from the artist. Loss is only from their pockets
It’s about the product not the design

Alexandra, how do you take care of sales taxes on Redbubble. I've seen different answers to this question. Is it the artist's responsibility to collect and remit it or Redbubbles?? Thanks for any info you may have.
Perfect video, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks :3

I want to know if it's necessary to add a payment method before you make some sales?or you can just start without it
Thank you so much for this video! You answered many questions I had for the site!
ive actually been considering on making my art into merch for a while, but since i only have 30 subs and 100 followers on insta, i feel like i shouldn't. do you think there should be a certain time to when you start making stuff? if so when could it be? thanks for the awesome video it really helped btw ^^
I feel like as long as you tag them well it doesn't really matter how many followers you have. Go on and make one, you never know how well it might turn out!
I watched a vid about Instagram advertising.
The vid said to make a new Instagram account SOLELY on your products. Some fun fact about it, models wearing/using it. It isnt about your followers really, it's how you tag each postm
i will buy it! :D
@@youneselhatimi9337 can you check out my designs, I just started :33 www.redbubble.com/people/Soapha/shop?asc=u Thank you for your time!
I literally only have a platform on tik tok and I have about 56 followers, many of whom can't buy stuff online, they are kids. But I started with redbubble early this year, boosted it with one post, got no sales, kind of forgot about it, until late July, when I made my first sale and I started marketing more than ever. So really, the platform isnt always a factor. Not for me anyway.
just curious on if the quality of clothing is good when selling?
Hi! Thanks for the video! I was startled by this term on the site "When a product is sold through the website the sale is between you and the customer - Redbubble acts as your agent in this process. In order to act as your agent, we need your explicit permission." Because if the sale is direct from me to the customer, does it mean that the invoice is generated by me or am I wrong? Here in Brazil it is like this, if I sell it, I generate an invoice, I was afraid of this information, since the commission is low, can you clarify if it works that way? I have a company in Brazil and I generate a note of everything I receive, I just couldn't understand if on redbubble I generate a note of the total sold to the final customer or just my commissions for redbubble. if anyone can help me thank you.
thanks for sharing! you explained everything honestly and it was very helpful :) im currently trying to decide if it is worth putting in the time on redbubble so this was super helpful for me
Congrats on hitting 1,000 subscribers!
Thank you!! So excited 😄
Is it absolutely necessary to add a vat number when you set up your account? I opened the store I have on teespring on redbubble as well but when I add the payment details I can't proceed without a VAT number. Is there a workaround to add it later?
I have sold two items and I was neve asked for a vat number, or do I know what it is.
Thank you for making this very helpful video - I knew nothing about Redbubble until today. It's really nice (and encouraging) to hear a video from someone who's "been there and done that"! I think I'll give it a go - but first I'll watch your video on uploading. :)
Hi sorry I’m late, but I was wondering if you can sell the same art that you sell on Redbubble in other places? I read the terms and conditions but it’s very hard to understand.

Redbubble has a long and sordid history of going to court with copyright holders instead of moderating the content. The reason for this is simple; they would lose MILLIONS if they actually removed the violating content. Other POD companies such as Threadless, Spreadhsirt, CafePress, Society6 and Teespring all use proprietary software to purge known copyrighted works before they are even uploaded. Redbubble has the means to do the same thing. Martin Hosking CHOOSES not to use the software. They know exactly what they are doing. They know most copyright holders won;t pursue litigation and the ones who do will be tied up in court for so long that the company will make millions on their works before a judge orders its removal. This company hides behind "third party" status and tries to claim the copyright moderation is the obligation of the shop keeper or artist uploading the design. They refuse to take any responsibility for it. No other POD company on the market behaves this way. This is a terrible company and if you are shopping or selling on this platform YOU are part of the problem. You are enabling these people to steal from other artists and copyright holders. Many artists try to dismiss this by telling themselves "everybody does it" or "Redbubble is doing the best they can to prevent it". Neither of those statements is true. Every POD company DOES NOT do this. And even if they did, how does that make it right in any way? No, the truth is, the people selling on this platform need the money and they don't want to sacrifice it over morals and ethics. Folks, this is why the world we live in sucks. Everybody wants to virtue signal and pretend they care, but in actuality it's all just about image. Redbubble will be the first to make a post on social media about blacklivesmatter or LGBTQ rights, but then they allow mass intellectual property theft on their platform and rob people every day. Does that seem like a company that cares to you? If you are selling or buying on Redbubble you are part of the problem. This company could not exist if you didn't shop or sell here. Plain and simple. These people don't lose any sleep at night over the outright theft of copyright. But if it became a societal issue that they could slap on a shirt and wear around town to show everyone what wonderful human beings they were, they'd be all about it. They'd wear this cause like they wear LGBTQ rights or Blacklivesmatter. The faux outrage would be off the charts. But they can steal copyright all day without your average person knowing about it. Suddenly being a good human isn't their identity. It's what you do when nobody is looking that defines who you are. And this company doesn't want you to see who they really are. That's why they spend more time trying to censor blog comments than simply removing the copyright protected works from their marketplace. They can't even deny it.

hello please I have a question for you I got salles on Redbubble but my funds don't show on my Paypal how can I transfer my funds from Redbubble to PayPal
Thanks for the nice video. During the registration process, there is a register for GST/VAT, seems I need to get this for the new store otherwise I can not open the store. Do you know how to get this in general?
I have a question so basically I create a Redbubble account, load up my designs and choose a merchandiser to create and attach my pay pal acc. When one of my t-shirt designs are purchased do they charge my credit card for the shipping or to cover the production cost of the product ? then repay me when they receive the customer's payment so to speak by paying me a commission? I guess my question is my PayPal or card charged for any reason during the process?
I believe they control all of the shipping and production costs but then you only get a margin of that sale you could also control that margin by markup on products
No you will not be charged
@@OnlineSalesClub thanks for your answer, I was looking in the comments for this same question.
@@sorayacupido6236 you're welcome
I disagree about the effort part - the amount of effort for the artist much more valuable than the commission indicates for me my art takes time and Redbubble is a machine where everything is automatic.
the whole process is very time consuming even if you don't make your own art.
plz tell me if somebody has used a free design from free image site and anybody else also use the same design so will that be a copyright issue in the tshirt site?
Hi! Does anyone knows if it's normal to not be able to see our own banner even though it's says it's already up?
I want to know, please give a strategy of giving a good title, description and keywords. Thank you friend is there instagram? What is the name?
Keywords are things like: stickers,mugs, chibi, food etc. Some people don't know that you dont have to look up the product for it to show up. That could get you to pop up on the searches more :)

CON: you can create a few designs (non offensive and non copyrighted) and they may suspend you before you even put “for sale” on public.
You lose all that work and will never get your site back because they have terrible customer service.
You’ll have to recreate another account on another computer or else they will catch that too and their system can tell if your developing another account from the same IP address, even if you use a VPN.
I love this. Keep going congrats on 1000 subscribers 🎉
Thanks for the support!! 🤩
@@AlexandraStrambu no problem 💃
is it okay to set the store name on your name ? I have create a store but its under my name i am really confused
Thanks a lot for your video . It's so inspiring !! I'm just wondering if someone ordered my artwork and then decided to cancel the order . Will I have to pay back anything to redbubble ?
Thanks for watching :) nope you won't! It will just move into your "cancelled sales" section and it won't be paid out to you. That's one of the reasons you have to wait a couple weeks for your sales to clear
Sorry if my question is kinda random but, do you recommend opening 1 redbubble account per niche ? Or should I just use the 'collections' feature ?
I thought about this when I was starting out too! I ended up deciding to keep just one store and use the collections feature because the more artwork you have the more likely you are to make sales. Maybe if your niches are complete opposites then open 2 separate ones but otherwise I would just do one!
Alexandra Strambu | Thanks ! I think I’ll open a different account for my photography/artistic work, and keep the current one mainly for simple/trendy tshirt designs
@@AlexandraStrambu I heard you sell more if you have a nitch, but to me it is too limiting.Then I heard on a video that if you sell something it will only be from one niche and you should stick with that one.I have everything but the kitchen sink on mine. I sold a cartoon animal, and a van gogh painting and they are completely the opposite of eachother. One thing I did hear on a video was to open more than one store so if you get kicked off, you still have another one. You really do not know if you are going to lose your store, and then they probably won''t let you copy your items for sale. I am putting the same exact things on cafepress, just in case,which is a lot easer to use than redbubble.
Hi, I was wondering if you know how to delete a design from a shop. Not a collection but the design itself and all the products with that design. Thanks, J.L.
Thanks for this, happy New year. God bless you 🙂🙏🏼❤️
Thank you so much for this video! I finally put up my shop on red bubble, hope it works well, I kinda need to pay for college and stuff 🤞🏻

Did it work??
We need an update-
My stickers keep getting removed when they’re all original. So I made a mean girls sticker pack but it gets removed because it was copyrighted to the original mean girls so what do i do
Send them a message?
I had RB delete one of my pictures because apparently it was _copyright infringement_ (it was fanart) yet I've seen people upload literal copyrighted photos that they did not take or create and are able to make 1000s of sales from it! RB can be kind of sketchy and seem to call the shots randomly. I just don't understand how people can take pictures of celebrities from Google images and make a collage out of it and make momey, but if I made fanart for a cartoon it gets taken down. It's bullshit!
@@b1njjj95 Fanart is copyright infringement when you try to sell it. Redbubble can't manage the millions of things people upload, so it may have been a take down notice they received that caused your work to be removed.
@@Ken.- Not really, because it's my work that I created. I get that it's artwork for a licensed TV series, but it's not the same as the thousands of pictures of actual copyrighted material, like screenshots and promotional posters that are being re-uploaded onto RB that get sales. Yeah, well RB should really have better system in place to monitor actual copyright infringement because it's not fair that people are making money off of stolen posters and screenshots while artists that make real art get their work flagged.
@@b1njjj95 Doesn't matter if you created it. Using the likeness of images you don't own is copyright infringement.
As for redbubble's system, like I said, they may have received a takedown notice. Most websites aren't in the business of policing their users. They would have no way of knowing if a particular work is a violation of someone's copyright or if the user has permission.
If the owners of the work you've made Fanart of are overly aggressive in protecting their copyright, then your going to see your work taken down.
Hi.how much resolution i have to put for tshirt,mask..thx
I just opened my redbubble shop today.Thanks for sharing so much info 😊
I created an account over there before watching your video, my first design for a mom and it seems I could not pick a woman model, it has men modeling the mom shirt, looked weird, so I have to back over and understand it better, thanks
Woohoo super exciting about the massive increase in subs!!! I'm a gardening one... tad slower growing on youtube but fast in the garden!

Woah this is so helpful! Thank you so much! 💖
Thank you so much for this!!
I actually loves designing not marketing. Out of teespring, redbubble and spreadshirt which I have to do least marketing ?and earn more profit?
www.burtoncreative.net/post/martin-hosking-redbubble-founder-knows-his-company-violates-copyright-he-doesn-t-care
I feel if you don't like marketing then redbubble and merch by Amazon are the best because teespring does not market your products where as both of these sites show your products no matter what your trust score is
My only Redbubble sales have been a cup I bought for my mom and a shirt I bought for a bday for a friend lol but the product quality was nice and worth the money. I can’t wait to make a real sale and I wanna buy one of my own hoodies lmfao. If anything I can rep my own designs lol
So did you actually make any sales ? Now 8 months later
@@SweetCake3874 yeah actually I did lol like 5 sales that weren’t me hahaha
Do you have to vectorize your art work? Also I heard a lot of people's accounts being shutdown but they still sell your art work and they get the money?
We subbed because you are giving us GEMS! thank you!
Thank you for the support!! :)
This is just out of curiosity, but why do I have to put my address when uploading my art?
For billing purposes
@@scarychewinggum even if I use paypal?
www.burtoncreative.net/post/martin-hosking-redbubble-founder-knows-his-company-violates-copyright-he-doesn-t-care
As an artist I opened an account yesterday and was suspended within 24 hours, without any definitive reason. I had to send a mugshot, like a common criminal, in order to try and get my account reinstated. After reading other artist's reviews, as well as customers, I'm glad this happened and I'd only uploaded a handful of images. I won't be dealing with them in future as an artist, nor a customer.
Can I start working on RB with outta having a paypal? Do they keep my profit till I have a paypal?
Hi , I have a question about promoting products, i want to promote on my Pinterest account, nut I don't know what to pin. Should i pin the design in a tshirt or in a sticker...??? Or just pin the image?
I would definitely pin it on a shirt or sticker so people know they have the option to buy it! If it’s just the design they won’t know that they can get a product with that design on it
Hi, I liked your video and I just have some questions, Im new on Redbubble and I was just wondering how can I get more organic traffic to my designs besides tags? Also how can I find niches to work on? Thank you for sharing 😁

do i need an account to buy something and get it delivered to my house?
Is it okay to start off on red bubble and eventually moving to your own shop / Etsy ?
I'm wanting to do this as a whole career but I'm poor and can't really afford yet to create a platform (this would help me start the process)
I really hope someone can reach out and answer this: I just started a redbubble, and I am intimidated with dealing with the taxes side of things. Do I have to file taxes for this? Say I only sell a little, do I still file taxes? I read the section they have written about the taxes..but I am only 21 and new to the world of taxes. Please help!
Same
I believe you put it in as hobby income under misc. income until you make a certain amount. Once you reach a certain threshold, most sites will send you a tax document.
Wait so selling on Redbubble isn’t completely free? Like they charge you eventually?
@@Melaphefon We were discussing US income tax.... in the US you have to pay taxes on any forms of income even if its a side gig
@@thegamingmotionartist07 but wait, if I'm from another country then what? I get taxes anyway?
I made my first sale a few weeks ago! It says the sale is still pending... is this normal for it to take this long (it was a mask so that could that be why?) love your channel 💖
I think so because it still needs to send the product
Yes that's completely normal! Sometimes it can take up to a month to clear
Each product has it's own production timeline and masks seem to be the slowest (likely because they have to be stitched after they're printed) . I've made a few mask sales and they tend to take about 3-4 weeks to clear.
@@riya1942 I've had my RB shop for a year now. I think it took a couple of months for my first sale to happen and since then I've 91 sales for a grand total of $223.66! So I can't see it will ever be anything other than a hobby. But it's a fun hobby.

Keep it up bro, redbubble is a legit site to work.
What's your store?

I Order a hoodie and it is supposed to come today. It haven’t come yet and I am getting really mad because it been a month now.😭😤 my hoodie cost like $40-50😭😭
oh, my! wondering where it's coming from;-(
Salim Serrano since these are fan made things it might take awhile to come because theirs a lot of different places where they have to ship
To Redbubble. But, I finally got it after a week it was supposed to come. I just think they need to do better and at least ship on the right day it says.
@@IStoleParkJiminJams , makes one wonder if in this site they give more leeway for designers to control shipping times, or more of that responsibility still falls on the RB intermediary, similar to that 'other' site..
can someone explain to me about tax ? someone said about tax on RB and I don't really understand
can i use a reference to draw an image and then sell it on red bubble
How on earth could it be a scam if it's free??
Girl, your thumbnail is clickbaity.
thumbnails are supposed to look like that
Thank you for that great video.Very informative content.
Much appreciated
Thanks for watching!
I hope you are always happy and have many many video ideas, but don't forget, since you do have a charm and have charmed more than 2k people, you can take any subject and create a video out of it. Almost anything 😁 thanks and hope to see more ❤😙
Hi! Thank you for your video. I just started in Redbubble.
What if I don't have other sites, just Facebook, but I have to link sites to open my store. Can you help me with this? Thank you.
Do they print from original artwork such as canvas work?
Hey can I use canva for designing?
hi guys, my account on redbubble got suspended for no Reason or any notifications and its been 4 months contacting them and sending many emails in vein and they never get back to me with any feedback or any reason.. do you know what should i do?
Just make a new account. You probably sold copyrighted material. Gotta really be careful on these platoforms.
how much does redbubble take out of the earnings?
Thank you for all your effort . You are awesome !!!
Do you get a notification every time you sell something?
I see so many Redbubble creators using their own fonts to make designs of song lyrics and I would like to do the same for some of my works but in Redbubbles copyright rules they say a license from the owner must be received if you are using someone else lyrics, and since you can't get a license from a celebrity, I'm not sure if I should go ahead and publish them? Has anyone been copyrighted/sued for designing song lyrics?
Words cannot be copyrighted - however phrases that are easily recognizable (eg: ..."Never gonna give you up") can be used if they are trademarked. DYOR on a product to see if its trademarked. Phrases that you make up are fine. Sure sometimes someones gonna have inspiration for something that just so happens to be copyrighted, but thats gonna be rare.
Hi Alex. I have been on Redbubble for about a week or so now and everything has been going great until this morning when I got an email from them about the fact that my latest design, (a shot I captured of sun light and beams coming through trees) was "flagged and is currently under review". I have about 61 designs on my page and I've never had on flagged. It felt like a kick in the stomach. Have you ever had one of your designs flagged and if so, how long did it take for them to get back to you with a "decision?" Just curious?
Just a heads up, I was where you are this week and had about 62 designs. One of my designs were flagged just like yours, and then I had another design taken down, they said dont re upload or they suspend my account, so I didn't and focused on other works. Then a day or two later they suspend my account....no warning, no email
so far I have had a couple flagged but they put them back on. What really made me mad was that someone said it was their design but I have their permission to put it on,when it was my own design I made myself from scratch. and I keep getting emails saying that their partner is not interested in my design, what ever that means. But I made 2 sales recently.That was the biggest surprise of all. I have over 100 items on, and I have been on the site two months.
Thank u Ale for the tips! I made my first sell after 2 months! 😁
Really hoping someone gets back to me with this question x I have just made an account on Redbubble and was wondering how the canvas system works? I am an artist that does Canvas work, I don't create multiple pieces of the same artwork I just create one original piece. if I upload my artwork to Redbubble does that mean they are going to create my art peice on canvas multiple times? Or will I be able to sell my own original piece? From what I'm getting they create everything for you?
No redbubble will definitely do it for you
Can i upload fo example a famous album cover in the site without having copyright problems e.t.c. ?
www.burtoncreative.net/post/martin-hosking-redbubble-founder-knows-his-company-violates-copyright-he-doesn-t-care
Redbubble's enforcing of this issue is much like big tech social media platforms. It is completely up to them, they don't have to explain why they have removed your content, if you push harder they can even ban you from using the site. Plus people who steal artwork then send RB onto your page so that their stolen material makes sales and you end up making 0.
