The Samples tab in your dashboard allows you to purchase physical prints of your own artwork at base production cost, meaning absolutely no artist markup or platform fees are added.
You get the exact same premium materials, high-quality printing process, and professional packaging your customers receive, but at a fraction of the retail price.
Why order samples?
Quality Assurance: It is the best way to inspect paper finishes, color accuracy, and framing options firsthand before officially launching your store.
Marketing & Content: Use them to take behind-the-scenes lifestyle photos and videos for your social media channels to show your followers what your physical prints look like.
Events & Exhibitions: Perfect for building up physical inventory to display at galleries, art fairs, pop-ups, or conventions without breaking the bank.
How to order a sample:
Complete your account setup and upload your desired photos in the Prints tab.
Navigate to the Samples tab in your admin dashboard.
Select your artwork, choose your desired sizes and finishes, and check out at cost!
⚠️ Please Note: Because sample orders do not include a profit markup, they do not acquire earnings or count toward your "Available to cash out" balance.
