How it sells itself

Uploadery lets customers upload files directly when adding your products to their cart. Files are attached to the order in Shopify so you can fulfill without chasing customers. Accept any file type, validate uploads, keep your fulfillment workflow clean, and your shoppers happy.

PrintDock adds an upload field to your DTF, UV DTF and gang sheet products. Customers drop in their PNG or PDF and see its print size before they add it to the cart. Sell fixed sizes as variants and each file is checked against the size the customer picked. Or let the file set the price: per inch of film, per square inch or a flat fee, on the same cart line.

Key points
  • Let your customers upload files when they order from your shop
  • Email customers a preview image of their made-to-order item
  • Set minimum/maximum heights & widths for uploaded images
  • Control what uploaded files you accept with specific filetypes or aspect ratios
  • Customizable file upload fields for any product or variant.
  • Automatic total calculation based on uploaded image and PDF dimensions.
  • Validation rules for file dimensions, DPI, page count, and file type.
  • Bulk download, automatic file renaming, and CSV export for orders.
