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 US, EU, UK, 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.
The catch for Australian sellers is fulfilment. Most of the catalogue, all-over-print especially, prints and ships from Vietnam, so standard Australian delivery runs into weeks and international shipping is not cheap. An Australian node is claimed but its catalogue depth is unclear. Merchize is the budget all-over-print and seasonal choice rather than the fast one, and a thin review base plus 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 Australian merchants ask before signing up.
Mostly no. Merchize fulfils the bulk of its catalogue from its Vietnam factory, and although an Australian node is claimed, its depth is unclear, so standard delivery to an Australian customer runs about 10 to 25 days. It suits stores whose customers will accept longer lead times rather than those needing fast local delivery.
No. The Merchize fulfilment plan is free, so you pay only the per-item base cost plus shipping when a customer orders. 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 $9, plus $17 to ship the first item to an Australian 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 integrates with Shopify, WooCommerce, Etsy, Amazon, eBay, TikTok Shop, syncing orders so they are sent to print automatically. Its catalogue covers 150+ (claims around 1,000) products, with a focus on all-over-print, ornaments and seasonal gifts.
Merchize is a budget option with low base costs and a strong all-over-print and seasonal range, but it fulfils most orders from Vietnam, so Australian delivery runs into weeks (10 to 25 days) and international shipping is not cheap. The review base is also thin and product variants can be confusing, so order samples and confirm lead times before you rely on it.
