Wholesale pricing
Published volume tiers make costs easier to forecast. The more square footage you order, the lower the available rate—without paying a recurring membership fee.
Scale apparel production with premium custom DTF transfers, transparent volume pricing, fast production, and nationwide shipping—without a membership fee or minimum order.
Wholesale buyers need predictable quality, clear costs, dependable production, and an ordering workflow that does not slow down when volume grows.
DTFZoo serves print shops, clothing brands, screen printers, embroidery businesses, promotional companies, online sellers, and resellers across the United States. Order one sheet when testing a design or qualify for deeper pricing as square-foot volume grows. There is no required membership and no large opening commitment. That flexibility helps new businesses validate demand while established decorators add capacity without changing the customer experience they already own. Start with the workflow that fits your file: arrange individual artwork in the online gang sheet builder or upload a completed gang sheet.
The right supplier protects your schedule and your reputation, not just the cost of film.

Typical 1–2 day production helps businesses restock, fulfill customer work, and manage overflow without carrying finished-garment inventory.
Vibrant color, white ink for dark garments, clean detail, and ready-to-press transfers support professional apparel production.
Clear production expectations help you build realistic customer deadlines. Production time remains separate from carrier transit time.
Build online when you have individual designs or upload a final gang sheet when your team controls the complete prepress layout.
Clear artwork, sizing, application, and FAQ resources help prevent errors before they become missed deadlines or reprints.
Current public pricing is based on total square footage. Confirm the final rate and product configuration at checkout before quoting customers.

DTFZoo works for teams that need flexible quantities, many designs, full color, and the ability to press garments as orders arrive.
Outsource overflow, expand available decoration methods, or fulfill DTF orders without maintaining another complete production line.
Test new designs, run limited drops, and hold transfers instead of finished garments to keep size and color inventory flexible.
Handle full-color, low-quantity, personalized, or detail-heavy work that does not fit an efficient screen-print setup.
Add colorful garment graphics alongside stitched decoration without investing in a separate DTF print-and-cure workflow.
Produce spirit wear, fundraiser apparel, event shirts, team gear, and staff garments across varied sizes and designs.
Add short-run custom apparel to client programs while keeping art and garment fulfillment under your own brand.
Standardize approved graphics for locations while allowing practical replenishment and regional garment purchasing.
Build margin into ready-to-press transfers, customer apparel, niche designs, and made-to-order product catalogs.
The product remains custom DTF printing. Wholesale value comes from planning, utilization, repeatability, and volume economics.
| Factor | Small or occasional orders | Wholesale volume workflow |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing | Lower total commitment but a higher rate per square foot | Lower available rate as total square footage reaches published tiers |
| Artwork planning | A few designs can be arranged job by job | Standardized sizing, naming, manifests, and reusable approved files |
| Gang sheet use | Convenience and testing are often the priority | Layout efficiency, cutting paths, quantities, and repeat production matter |
| Quality control | Each small job can be inspected independently | A representative sample should qualify files, garments, and press settings |
| Inventory | Transfers may be ordered only when needed | Approved transfers can support faster garment fulfillment without stocking every finished size |
| Scheduling | One deadline and one receiving event | Production, transit, receiving, cutting, pressing, and replacement buffers must be planned |
| Margin control | Simple per-job pricing | Volume savings can support stronger resale margins when the full workflow is measured |
Large and recurring orders become easier when files, quantities, deadlines, receiving, and pressing are documented before checkout.
Use final-size approved files, consistent profiles, clear filenames, and the artwork requirements.
Place large designs first, fill gaps logically, and leave safe cutting space around every printed edge.
Press and wash-test representative artwork on the exact garment before committing a new large run.
Add production, shipping, receiving, cutting, application, quality control, and a replacement buffer.
Save approved files, order records, garment details, and heat press settings for repeat work.
For repeat orders, reuse the approved production export rather than rebuilding artwork from email previews or screenshots. Keep a manifest showing design name, physical size, quantity, customer, gang sheet location, and revision. This makes receiving and cutting faster and prevents a corrected file from being confused with an older version.
DTFZoo ships nationwide, which lets businesses use one transfer supplier while sourcing garments or pressing locally. Production time and carrier transit are separate. Build customer promises from the current product turnaround, selected shipping service, and realistic operational buffers—not from the day a label first appears.
The best first order creates a standard for every order that follows. Define ownership, approvals, and quality checks before volume makes small uncertainties expensive.
Choose one person to approve artwork dimensions, spelling, transparency, quantities, and the final gang sheet. Reopen the actual export, inspect it at 100%, and store it in a controlled folder. Email previews and screenshots are references, not production masters. If customers supply artwork, document that they approved the final physical size and appearance before checkout.
Order and press a representative sample when the artwork, transfer source, garment, or brand color is new. Evaluate placement, detail, color expectations, hand feel, stretch, peel behavior, finishing, and wash performance. Record the exact press, platen, verified temperature, time, pressure, peel, and cover material so every operator follows the same method.
Assign responsibility for tracking, package inspection, sheet counts, cutting, work-in-progress storage, pressing, final quality control, and customer communication. Protect unpressed transfers from heat, moisture, dust, folds, and uncontrolled handling. Build time for a receiving review before promising that every garment will be ready, especially when an event date cannot move.
Growing decorators often need more capacity before they are ready to buy, maintain, profile, and staff another print system. Wholesale transfers let your team stay focused on customer acquisition, garment sourcing, pressing, and fulfillment.
Add DTF capacity without immediately taking on printer maintenance, ink management, film, adhesive powder, curing, color profiling, ventilation, and daily operator training. You control the customer relationship and garment production while DTFZoo produces the transfers.
Published square-foot tiers help estimate transfer cost before the job arrives. When sheet utilization and labor are tracked consistently, you can quote faster and protect margin more confidently across short runs and recurring programs.
Archived approved artwork, gang sheet templates, size records, and press settings reduce setup on reorders. Your team can reproduce a proven workflow instead of interpreting a customer file again each time.
Qualify representative transfers on the actual garment before pressing a large order. A documented sample provides a physical standard for placement, color expectations, feel, application, and wash performance.
Full color, detailed graphics, dark garments, multiple designs, varied quantities, and many sizes can share one purchasing workflow. That flexibility helps screen printers and embroiderers accept jobs that do not fit their primary decoration method.
Transfers can ship to your primary shop, approved production partners, or other supported destinations. Use tracked shipping, clear receiving ownership, and inspection procedures whenever fulfillment is distributed across locations.
Answers for print shops, apparel brands, resellers, and organizations planning bulk or recurring gang sheet orders.
Yes. DTFZoo publishes volume-based rates determined by total square footage. Current public tiers range from the entry Parrot rate through the King Kong rate for 501 or more square feet. Confirm the live rate, dimensions, and total at checkout before quoting a customer, because pricing and product options can change. No recurring wholesale membership fee is advertised.
DTFZoo advertises no minimum order. You can begin with one available sheet configuration when testing artwork, a garment, or a new supplier workflow. The smallest purchasable sheet option still determines the practical minimum format. Ordering a sample before a large new program is good quality control, not wasted volume.
Yes. Repeat ordering is most reliable when you archive the exact approved production file, dimensions, profile, order details, garment, and successful press settings. Use versioned filenames so revised art cannot be confused with the previous file. Color and material can vary across screens, garments, and production lots, so retain a pressed reference sample for critical programs.
Yes. Gang sheets let you combine repeated logos, multiple designs, different sizes, or several customer jobs on one sheet. Use the online builder to arrange individual transparent files or upload a completed print-ready layout. Keep every design at final dimensions and leave enough clear carrier space for safe cutting.
The builder is for uploading individual designs, resizing or duplicating them, and arranging the sheet online. The upload option is for a complete gang sheet already created at final width, length, resolution, transparency, and spacing. DTFZoo prints the submitted layout rather than rebuilding it, so review the artwork requirements before checkout.
DTFZoo advertises typical production of 1–2 days. Production time is separate from shipping and can be affected by current capacity, payment status, order cutoff, quantity, or a file that needs clarification. For launches and events, include time for production, carrier transit, receiving, inspection, cutting, pressing, and possible replacements.
Yes. DTFZoo advertises shipping to all 50 states. Available services, costs, and delivery estimates depend on the destination and checkout options. A tracking number may be created before the carrier records the first physical scan. Expedited shipping changes transit service; it does not automatically move an order ahead in production.
Wholesale pricing can support a resale model in which you sell ready-to-press transfers, finished apparel, or production services under your own business. You are responsible for your pricing, taxes, customer promises, artwork rights, quality control, care instructions, and policy compliance. Calculate the full workflow—not only film cost—before setting resale margins.
Yes. DTF printing uses white ink beneath color artwork, which allows bright designs and white elements to remain visible on dark garments. The submitted file must distinguish white artwork from transparent areas. Always test the exact garment because fabric texture, coatings, dye migration, and heat tolerance affect application and appearance.
DTF is commonly used on cotton, polyester, cotton-poly blends, tri-blends, and other heat-tolerant textiles. Performance coatings, nylon, waterproof finishes, seams, texture, and polyester dye migration may require specialized testing or a different product. Review DTFZoo's heat press instructions and follow the settings supplied with the transfer.
Standardize final dimensions, resolution, transparency, color profile, naming, and quantities before building sheets. Keep a manifest for every design and revision. Print paper size proofs, inspect files at 100%, and qualify a physical transfer when the artwork or garment is new. Never enlarge screenshots or rebuild repeat work from compressed previews.
Yes. A sheet can contain unrelated designs and multiple physical sizes as long as they fit within the selected dimensions and share compatible production requirements. Maintain an external manifest because labels are not printed unless they are deliberately added as artwork. Keep customer files and licensing permissions organized before combining work.
Measure the actual garment's printable area and consider wearer, placement, artwork proportions, and desired visual coverage. The same design width looks different on youth shirts, adult garments, hoodies, totes, and left-chest positions. Use DTFZoo's shirt sizing guide as a starting point, then approve a 100% paper proof.
Use one approved export, verify received sheets before cutting, qualify the exact garment, calibrate the heat press, and document time, temperature, pressure, peel, and finishing. Check the first pressed garment and samples throughout the run. Separate artwork, transfer, garment, and application defects instead of changing several variables at once.
Contact DTFZoo promptly with the order number, full-sheet photographs, close-ups, packaging, and a clear description. For application issues, include the garment, press model, verified temperature, time, pressure, peel, and care steps. Keep the transfers and packaging until review is complete. Production defects, transit damage, artwork errors, and application problems require different evidence.
