Screen Printing Pricing Breakdown

Decoration-Level Pricing

Screen printing cost is directly tied to how your artwork is built:

• Color Count: Each ink color requires its own screen. More colors = more setup = higher price per unit.
• Print Locations: Front-only prints are standard. Adding back, sleeve, or tag prints adds cost per location.
• Garment Type: Higher-end or heavyweight apparel typically costs more to decorate.

What Doesn’t Affect Price

Some things don’t increase the cost of a screen print:

• Design Complexity: As long as it’s color-separated, detail doesn’t raise the price.
• Garment Color: Light or dark shirt colors don’t matter—just make sure there’s enough contrast with your ink.
• Design Method: Upload or use our Online Designer—it won’t change the price.

Order-Level Discounts

Screen printing gets more cost-effective at scale:

• Minimums Apply: Most products require 12+ pieces for screen printing.
• Bulk Pricing Tiers: Discounts apply at quantity breaks like 24+, 48+, and 100+—these apply automatically in your cart.
• Same Print, Multiple Sizes: As long as your print stays the same, combining sizes or garments still counts toward volume pricing.

Account-Level Discounts

Your history helps unlock better pricing:

• 365-Day Rolling Spend: Hit spending milestones to get a storewide discount applied to all print methods.
• Store Leveling: High-performing stores and fundraisers may unlock even more favorable pricing across bulk orders.
