Custom DTF Transfer — Single Design
Upload one design, pick a size, we print and pre-cut. Different from a gang sheet — this is for a single transfer at a fixed size, ready to press the moment it arrives. No layout work, no sheet planning.
What custom single transfers are good for
- One-off shirts, hoodies, totes, or hats
- Team jerseys with custom names and numbers (one design per order)
- Event merch (weddings, fundraisers, tournaments, conferences)
- Staff uniforms with logo + role
- Product launches or small-batch merch tests
- Anyone who wants one transfer sized to a specific placement, without thinking in sheet inches
How custom single transfers differ from gang sheets
A gang sheet is a single 22"-wide sheet packed with multiple designs — you cut them apart yourself and price drops as the sheet gets bigger. A custom DTF transfer is one design at one fixed size, pre-cut on arrival. If you need three different logos on three different shirts, a gang sheet is cheaper. If you need one logo on one shirt, this is simpler.

FAQ
What if I need ten of the same design?
Bump the quantity at checkout — we'll print and pre-cut all of them at the size you've selected. If you need them in different sizes, place separate orders or use a gang sheet to lay them out yourself.
How does this compare to ordering a gang sheet?
Gang sheets are cheaper per square inch and let you mix designs on one sheet, but you cut them apart yourself. Custom single transfers arrive pre-cut at a fixed size — faster to use, slightly higher per-unit cost.
How fast does it ship?
72-hour production standard. Next business day to BC and Alberta, 2–3 days across the rest of Canada. Express options available at checkout.
Can I get a proof before printing?
Yes — every order receives a digital proof within one business day. Approve, request adjustments, or chat with our art team before production starts.
