How print on demand works.
You make the design and set the price. We print, pack, ship and look after your buyers.
Design your release
Upload your art, place it on a garment and pick the colours you sell. The Studio shows the base before you set a price.
Share your store
Your own store at your own link. A printer checks every file before a release goes live.
We print each order
Printed in our Colorado Springs shop and shipped with tracking within 3–5 business days (US only).
You get paid
Everything above the base is yours, paid monthly by PayPal.
Why sell with ARK.
$0 to open
No monthly fee and no listing fee. The base on each sale covers the blank, the print, packing and our margin.
Printed here, not a warehouse
Every order is printed in our Colorado Springs shop — and you can call or text the people printing it.
A printer checks every file
Before a release goes live, a person at the shop reviews your file and tells you what to fix.
Buyers looked after
Tracking on every order, free size exchanges within 30 days and defects made right within 30.

What our custom-print customers say.
Google reviews of the print shop that prints every store order.
Could not recommend enough for all of your screen printing needs! Impeccable craftsmanship and exemplary customer service. Alex brought my visions to life in ways better than I could've hoped for!
Jessi Wood, rated 5 out of 5 on Google
The shirts were top quality in both materials and printing. Alex was great to work with. The whole process was great.
James Felix, rated 5 out of 5 on Google
I had a great experience working with ARK screen printing! Communication was excellent—Alex was very quick to respond and always open to any adjustments I needed along the way. The whole process felt easy and collaborative, which I really appreciated. The final shirts turned out exactly how I wanted. I would definitely use his services again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality work and great customer service!
Bella O'Brien, rated 5 out of 5 on Google
I had gone online to request a quote for a couple shirts and left it as that, Alex called me to follow up on the quote and to me the call itself showed such great customer service and we talked about what I wanted, I decided to move forward with the purchase of my shirts and so glad I did! I highly recommend for anyone looking for custom shirts :)

Straight answers.
Does it cost anything to open a store?
No. A store is $0 to open, with no monthly fee and no listing fee. Each sale has a base — the blank, the print, packing and our margin — and everything you charge above it is yours.
Who prints and ships the orders?
We do, in our Colorado Springs shop. Print-on-demand orders ship within 3–5 business days, with tracking (carrier time is extra). Store-order shipping is $7.99 flat and free over $75, US addresses only.
How do I get paid?
Earnings become available 21 days after an order ships and are paid by PayPal once a month when you have $20 or more. A W-9 is needed once payouts pass the IRS reporting threshold.
Can I sell a limited run instead?
Yes. Run a campaign with a closing date and we print the whole run together. 24+ orders in a run are screen printed when the art fits the colour limits (up to 2 colours from 24, up to 6 from 40); otherwise they're DTF printed. Campaign orders print after the closing date, within 5 business days of the blanks arriving, then ship. Every order prints either way.
What do my buyers get?
Tracking on every order, free size exchanges within 30 days and defects made right within 30 days of delivery.
Would a bulk order suit me better?
If you'd rather buy upfront — for an event, a team or staff — a bulk order gives the lowest price per shirt (screen printing from 24). See Your Price Instantly.
