Print on Demand with Society6

Print on demand (POD) is a retail method where items are printed individually once an order is placed, removing the need for stockpiling inventory.

Society6 operates within this POD framework, enabling sellers to offer their art on various products. Sellers upload their designs to Society6, choose products to adorn with their art, and upon sale, Society6 manages production, shipping, and customer support. Sellers receive a commission for each item sold, with the amount varying by product.

Society6's large user base provides sellers with exposure to a worldwide audience, increasing the chances of sales. Sellers can upload their work and select products for sale without any upfront investment. Once artwork is uploaded and products are selected, sellers can earn money without additional effort, providing a passive income stream.
