Frequently Asked Questions
How does the DTF T-shirt price calculator work?
Our T-shirt price calculator helps you quickly estimate your selling price based on your total cost and preferred markup. Just enter your blank tee cost, DTF transfer cost, shipping, and how much profit you'd like to make. The tool instantly gives you a suggested selling price.
What should I include in my shirt pricing?
When pricing your custom shirts, include the cost of the blank shirt, the DTF transfer or dtf print, any shipping fees, packaging costs, and your desired profit margin. Don't forget to consider extras like labor or additional design services if applicable.
Can I use this calculator for bulk orders?
Yes! Our calculator is perfect for bulk DTF print orders. You can calculate costs based on the quantity of shirts, and adjust your markup to offer volume discounts while still protecting your profits.
Is this calculator helpful for beginners?
Absolutely. This tool was designed with small business owners and startup shirt sellers in mind. Whether you're selling shirts at events, online, or locally in places like Spring Hill, FL, this calculator helps you price with confidence.
What is a good markup for T-shirts?
Most sellers use a markup between 50%–200% depending on their audience, market, and shirt quality. If you're just getting started, a 100% markup is a great baseline — for example, if your shirt costs $8.30 to make, sell it for $16.60.
Can I include shipping in my pricing?
Yes, and we recommend it. Use the calculator to factor in shipping per shirt so you can offer free or flat-rate shipping while keeping your profits intact. This is especially helpful when selling on platforms like Etsy or at local markets.
Do you offer DTF transfers to go with my shirts?
Yes! At We Print U Press, we offer high-quality DTF transfers with no minimums. You can browse designs, create your own gang sheets, and get transfers shipped directly from our shop in Spring Hill, Florida. Orders over $75 ship free and we offer free local pickup!
