How It Works

Ordering DTF transfers, explained in plain English.

Four steps. No email tennis. Transparent timelines.

Step 1: Upload

Drop your artwork onto our order page. We accept PNG, PDF, AI, and PSD. Our system automatically:

Checks resolution (flags anything under 300 DPI)
Verifies colour mode and converts if needed
Detects transparency issues that cause bad prints
Calculates your sheet size automatically (or lets you pick a gang sheet)

You’ll see a preview immediately, and if anything’s off, we flag it before you check out.

Step 2: Proof

Within one business day, you receive a digital proof showing exactly how your transfer will print. This is not a quick mockup. It’s a press-accurate preview.

You can:

Approve and send to production
Request tweaks (colour, sizing, placement), unlimited revisions
Chat with our art team if you need hands-on help

Step 3: Production

Once approved, we dispatch the same or next business day.

Every order includes:

White-underbase printing (no surcharge)
Pre-cut and sheeted ready for your press
Quality control review before packaging
Tracking number emailed at shipment

Step 4: Shipping

We fulfill from two Canadian facilities. Orders ship from the nearest one to your address. Routing happens automatically at checkout.

Destination	Ships from	ETA
British Columbia, Alberta	Vancouver	Next business day
Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Yukon	Vancouver	2 business days
Ontario, Quebec	Toronto	1–2 business days
Atlantic provinces	Toronto	2–3 business days
Nunavut, Northwest Territories	Toronto	3–5 business days

Express options are available at checkout: 2-Day Express (+$25, most CA addresses) and Next-Day Express (+$45, major metros).

Pressing your transfer

Once your transfers arrive:

Preheat press to 300°F / 150°C
Place transfer on garment, film side up
Press with medium pressure for 12 seconds
Peel hot, immediately
Re-press for 5 seconds after peel to cure

Wash-durable to 100+ cycles at 60°C with proper care. Wash inside out, cold cycle, hang dry or low tumble.

Common questions

What if my artwork fails the automatic check?

We’ll email you a diagnostic within an hour with specific fixes (e.g., “upscale to 300 DPI” or “flatten transparency layers”). If you can’t fix it yourself, our art team can clean it up for a small fee.
