Before you place an order
How much do custom promotional products cost?
Price depends on the item, quantity, decoration method, artwork placement and delivery requirements. Ask for a quote that makes setup, decoration, freight and applicable tax clear so you can compare total costs.
Is there a minimum order?
Minimums vary by product and decoration method. Tell us the quantity you need; we’ll suggest suitable choices and confirm any minimum before you order.
Can you help with design?
Yes. Send your logo or idea. Our design team can help prepare artwork, and you approve a proof before production.
How long does an order take?
The schedule depends on availability, artwork approval, production and transit. Give us your in-hand date at the start. We’ll confirm timing for the specific products rather than assume every item follows the same schedule.
Can I browse products myself?
Yes. Open our product catalog, then send us the items you like, quantity and deadline so we can confirm the details.
