Why open a Printify Pop-Up Store?

A Printify Pop-Up Store is a free, hosted online storefront that lets you sell custom products without needing a separate eCommerce platform. It’s an integrated solution that gets you from designing to selling in minutes.

Create your products as usual through Printify, then publish your listings to your Pop-Up Store. You’ll get a unique URL, like yourstorename.printify.me.

There’s no need to manage hosting, inventory, or payments. Printify handles printing, shipping, order processing, and even customer support. You simply design your products, publish them to your store, and share your link with the world.

The Pop-Up Store is designed for simplicity, speed, and accessibility. Here’s why so many sellers choose it:

  • It’s free
    There are no monthly fees, setup costs, or hosting charges.
  • Product creation is instant
    Add a design to a product from our Catalog and publish it straight to your store.
  • Printify’s network handles everything
    Don’t worry about order processing, fulfillment, or customer support – we’ve got it.
  • No investment needed
    After customers pay at checkout, we’ll automatically deduct production and shipping costs before sending your profit to you via Stripe.
  • Customizable storefront
    Upload your logo, add social media links, select a theme, and personalize your store’s look to match your brand.

If you’re a designer, content creator, or side hustler looking to monetize your audience with minimal effort, a Pop-Up Store is one of the easiest ways to get started.

New Pop-Up Store features

We’ve rolled out several new features to help you make a stronger first impression, guide customers to the right products, and fine-tune your store’s appearance. Let’s take a closer look.

Cover banner: Make your store stand out

The cover banner is a new visual element that sits at the top of your store’s homepage. It’s the first thing your visitors see, so it’s perfect for announcements, promotions, or general branding.

Upload a banner image, add a headline and body text, and choose a matching color for your text. The system adjusts the banner width automatically, and you can preview how it looks on both desktop and mobile before hitting publish.

This feature helps you set the tone for your store and communicate any marketing messages clearly from the moment shoppers land on your page.

Adding a cover banner is simple. Open the Store Builder by navigating to Store Settings, then selecting Customize Store.

Click on Cover Banner, upload your image, then hit Publish Changes – and it’s done!

Product rearrangement: Highlight what matters

You can now control which products appear first in your store. Whether you want to showcase your bestsellers, seasonal items, or new arrivals, this feature lets you arrange your homepage for maximum sales.

Drag and drop products into the right order or use the quick actions menu to move a listing directly to the top or bottom of the list. Once you’re happy with the layout, hit Publish.

To rearrange your products, head to the Store Builder and select Product Arrangement on the left sidebar.

Learn more about product rearrangement on our Help Center. 

Logo toggle: Clean or branded

You now have more flexibility in displaying branded elements. Upload your logo, then choose whether to display it with or without the store name. Want it in the header, footer, or both? You’re in control.

It’s a simple tweak, but it’s great if you want a cleaner aesthetic or if your logo already includes your brand name.

Similar to the previous features, head to your Store Builder and find the Logo toggle function to customize.

QR code checkout: Let customers scan and shop

Whether you’re at a live event, a retail space, or promoting a product without on-site inventory, a simple scan of your Pop-Up Store QR code takes buyers straight to your product page to complete their purchase.

You can generate QR codes directly from your Printify dashboard.

Go to My Products, click the three dots next to a listing, and select Download promo materials.

Choose between a horizontal, vertical, or detailed QR code format.

You can print individual price tags or download the full marketing pack, complete with mockups and promotional assets.

These ready-to-use materials are perfect for flyers, displays, and event booths. By offering a quick way to scan and shop, you ease the buying experience and make every interaction a chance to drive online sales.

Personalization: Let customers create custom items

You can now let buyers add names, dates, or custom messages directly on the product page before checkout – no extra tools or messaging needed.

It’s a great way to offer custom gifts, pet products, or motivational designs with a personal touch.

This unlocks a huge range of new product categories for your store, including:

  • Custom mugs and t-shirts
  • Gifts for weddings, birthdays, and holidays
  • Pet products with names 
  • Motivational products with personalized messages

To enable it, head to the Product Creator and add a text layer under the Personalize tab. Set a character limit to keep design integrity.

You can also set up instructions for your buyer:

Personalized items will display a Personalize it badge in your store, and you’ll be notified to approve the order before it goes to production.

What’s coming to the Pop-Up Store?

We’re not stopping there – several highly requested features are in development and will be launching soon to make your store even more powerful.

Product collections: Organize your catalog

Navigation is crucial for driving checkouts. With the upcoming collections feature, you’ll be able to group related products into categories to improve customers’ browsing experience.

Create sections like “Holiday Gifts,” “Minimalist Style,” or “New Releases,” each with its own title and description. Products can appear in multiple collections, giving you flexibility in how you present your catalog.

This will make it easier for shoppers to find what they’re looking for and discover more of your lineup.

Color themes: Match your brand’s look

Get more control over how your Pop-Up Store looks. We’re expanding the color options so you can create a storefront that truly reflects your brand.

Instead of choosing from a limited set of predefined palettes, customize your store with unlimited color themes. This update will let you tailor your background, buttons, and accents with the exact shades that match your visual identity.

Whether you want a bold, vibrant store or something clean and minimal, the upcoming color themes feature will give you the flexibility to design your store, your way.

Custom domains: Build a stronger brand

Right now, Pop-Up Stores use a printify.me subdomain. Soon, you’ll be able to connect your own custom domain with providers like Hostinger, SiteGround, or BlueHost

Using your own domain, such as yourbrand.com, will help:

  • Build customer trust
  • Strengthen your brand identity
  • Improve your marketing and SEO potential

No need to write code or hire a developer – just connect your domain from the settings menu.

Explore the new tools and features yourself
