“Thank you so much for making our Spirit Wear Sale so successful! We loved the variety of products offered and that there was so much less work for our volunteers in coordinating and delivering orders. It was also so great to have our bulk order pre-sorted for us!”

Good to know

What is an online merchandise store for nonprofits?

An online merchandise store for nonprofits is a branded storefront where supporters buy custom gear — apparel, accessories, and drinkware — with no upfront inventory. Items are printed on demand and shipped directly to each buyer, so your team never collects sizes, sorts boxes, or fronts a bulk order.

It runs on print on demand, built for nonprofits: when a volunteer wears your logo to a beach cleanup or a donor sips from a mug with your cause on it, your mission travels into rooms you’ll never be in. Your store can run for a single campaign — an awareness week, a gala, a 5K — or stay open all year. Fundraising is entirely optional: set a small markup so each order quietly supports your cause, or keep prices at cost and use the store purely for awareness and belonging.

The checklist

What to look for in an online merch store for nonprofits

Whoever you choose — us or anyone else — these are the six things worth checking before you commit.

01

No minimums & no upfront inventory

One order should be a valid order. If a platform needs a minimum run or boxes in your closet, the risk is back on you.

02

On-demand printing & per-order shipping

Each item printed when it’s ordered and shipped to that buyer’s door — nobody on your team plays warehouse.

03

Real human support that knows nonprofits

A person who understands volunteers, donors, and event dates — not a ticket queue that answers in help-center links.

04

Quality gear people are proud to wear

Your store only works if the shirt gets worn. Look for real print methods — embroidery and engraving included, not just tees.

05

Flexibility for gifts, bulk & fundraisers

Donor thank-yous, a bulk order for the gala, an optional margin for fundraising — one partner should handle all of it.

06

A free-to-start option

Starter has no monthly plan fee. Check product and shipping costs before placing an order.

Common questions

Questions people ask before they start

Do I have to figure this out alone?
You can create a Starter account yourself. If you need help choosing products, planning a bulk order, or comparing plans, our team can help. Essential includes help from our merch team, and Premium includes a dedicated account manager.
What does it cost?
Starter has no monthly plan fee. Essential is $20 per month, while Premium starts with a conversation about your needs. Products, decoration, shipping, and applicable tax are separate from plan pricing. We’ll show your plan choice before you submit or pay.
Are there minimums or contracts?
No minimums on on-demand stores or gift programs — we print and ship as orders come in, even if that’s just one. No long-term contract either. You can upgrade for premium features any time and step back to the free plan whenever you want.
I just need a one-time bulk order. Can you help?
Yes. Choose Event or Bulk Order in the signup flow, tell us what you hope to purchase, and share when you need it. A bulk order specialist will reach out within one business day to discuss options and timing; submitting a request does not create an account or place an order.
What can you put our logo on?
Thousands of products — apparel, drinkware, bags, headwear, tech accessories, and premium gifts. Decoration methods include screen printing, embroidery, DTF, DTG, dye sublimation, UV printing, and engraving. If your logo files aren’t print-ready, our team can clean them up.
Are you an online merchandise store for nonprofits?
Yes. Print Your Cause runs branded online merchandise stores for nonprofits, where your supporters, members, volunteers, and staff order custom gear on demand. You choose the products and branding, and we print and ship each order — there's no inventory, no minimums, and nothing to store.
How much does it cost to set up a nonprofit merchandise store?
Our Starter plan is free, so it costs $0 to set up a store and start ordering. White-label, fully branded storefronts are a Premium feature, so the branded store isn't free — but you can launch on Starter at no cost and upgrade only if and when you need the white-label experience.
Can you run an on-demand store for our organization's custom gear?
Yes. We run on-demand stores for your organization's custom gear and branded merch, sometimes called a swag store. Each item is printed when someone orders it and shipped to that person, so you never hold stock or fulfill orders yourself.
Do you offer custom promotional products for nonprofits?
Yes. We offer custom promotional products for nonprofits — pens, drinkware, bags, apparel, and tech accessories for events, galas, walks, and member drives. There are no minimums, so you can order what you need for an event without committing to a bulk run.
Can our nonprofit raise money with our store, or is it just for awareness?
Both — but awareness comes first. The primary win is getting your cause in front of your community and giving supporters something they're proud to wear. Fundraising is optional: you can add a margin to items, and earnings over $50 pay out automatically at the start of each quarter — or on request any time.
How quickly can my program go live?
Account setup begins after you submit your signup. A ready-to-shop program depends on your products, artwork, and any review needed. For bulk requests, tell us your deadline; our team will discuss whether we can meet it before you place an order.
