What is Express Delivery, and how does it work?
Printify Express Delivery is a fulfillment option that offers production and delivery in just two working days for a small additional cost. With Express Delivery, you can expand your seasonal selling opportunities and cater to last-minute shoppers, as orders are printed and delivered within just two working days.
Express orders at Printify go through a dedicated production process, which means they have a dedicated order flow to ensure speed without any sacrifice in print quality. In order to ensure the delivery within two working days, the Printify platform automatically chooses the best placed provider for each order. This can result in the production cost rising or falling. We advise you to take care when setting your prices, see more detail below in the How much does Printify Express Delivery cost? section.
Printify Express Delivery is currently available for two of our most popular t-shirts in the most popular color options. Express Delivery is available for merchants selling on Etsy, Shopify, Printify Pop-Up Store and Walmart, as well as for ordering manually.

Will my order be fulfilled by the Print Provider I selected?
When you set products to use Printify Express Delivery, your orders will be directed to the Print Provider which is best placed to deliver within two business days. Please note that this will happen independently of your Order Routing settings.
Will the print size remain the same even if my Express Delivery order is routed to another Print Provider?
Currently, we are still working on standardizing print sizes for all Express Delivery orders. In cases where this is not possible, we do make minor automatic adjustments, printing up to 1 inch smaller in width and length.
We’re constantly working to perfect this process so that your customers get a great print every time.
What if an order contains regular products in addition to Express Delivery products?
Products ordered with Express Delivery will be shipped separately from products with standard delivery. Please note that due to multiple shipping methods, the order will be divided into separate orders in Printify.
Is there a guarantee that Express delivery orders will be fulfilled and delivered within two business days?
Printify Express Delivery is not a guarantee of delivery within two working days. Printify Express Delivery orders are given their own dedicated production line and benefit from expedited production and faster shipping. The aim is to get orders to your customers ahead of the stated cutoff times, but this is not a guarantee, as such we don’t offer refunds for orders that don’t make it within two working days.
Can I opt out of using Express Delivery after enabling it?
Yes, you can deactivate this delivery option by choosing the relevant products and clicking Edit Shipping. Then, disable Express Delivery, confirm the changes, and publish them to your store.
If you are using Walmart, please be aware that you will also need to adjust your product prices accordingly.
If previously set up, make sure to review your product details (title, description, mockup) for any references to Express Delivery that need to be removed.
