About Merchize

Merchize is a print on demand and global fulfilment platform founded in 2019, with its own factory in Vietnam plus claimed nodes in the UK, EU, US, Australia and China. The fulfilment plan is free to use, base costs are low, and the catalogue leans into all-over-print, ornaments, home decor and seasonal gifts. It integrates with the major sales channels including Shopify, WooCommerce, Etsy, Amazon, eBay and TikTok Shop, and also sells optional paid storefront plans for sellers who want a built-in website.

For UK sellers Merchize claims a UK and EU node, and it states that customs, taxes and duties are included in the shipping cost for EU orders, which removes a common source of friction. The caveat is that the catalogue depth from the UK node is unclear and much of the range, all-over-print especially, still ships from Vietnam, so delivery varies by product. A thin review base and confusing duplicate product variants mean you should order samples and confirm lead times before you commit.

Merchize was founded in 2019 and is headquartered in Singapore (manufacturing in Vietnam; US facility in Texas).

Common questions about Merchize

The same questions UK merchants ask before signing up.

  • Partly. Merchize claims a UK and EU node and states that customs, taxes and duties are included in the shipping cost for EU orders, but much of its catalogue, all-over-print especially, still prints and ships from its Vietnam factory. Confirm where your specific products ship from before relying on fast UK delivery.

  • No. The Merchize fulfilment plan is Free, so you pay only the per-item base cost plus shipping per order. Merchize also sells paid storefront plans, but those cover its optional website builder rather than fulfilment.

  • A benchmark t-shirt has an indicative base cost of about £5, plus £6 to ship the first item to a UK customer. You set your own retail price and keep the difference as margin; Merchize does not take a percentage of your sale. Some base costs are not published, so confirm the exact figure in your dashboard.

  • Merchize is a budget option with low base costs and a strong all-over-print and seasonal range. It claims a UK and EU node with duties included for EU orders, but much of the catalogue still ships from Vietnam, the review base is thin and product variants can be confusing. Order samples and confirm lead times before you rely on it.
