Addon Products

What is an Addon Product?

An Addon Product is a customer-supplied item that PrintOps warehouses on your behalf and inserts into your orders. Common examples are business cards, thank-you cards, stickers, or branded inserts. Unlike posters and prints, addons are physical inventory: you ship a quantity to us, and we draw from that stock as your orders ship.

Addons are tied to a single store. If you sell from multiple stores, each store has its own addon catalog and inventory.

How to request an Addon Product

Addons must be approved before they appear in your catalog. To request one:

  1. Go to Store Settings → Addon Products and click Request New Addon.
  2. Fill out the form describing the item. You can attach a reference image.
  3. Our team reviews the request. If approved, we create the addon in your store's catalog and you'll be able to generate a packing slip to ship your items.

Once approved, the addon shows up in Store Settings → Addon Products with its on-hand count and bin location. You can also flip the Auto-Add toggle on that row to have the addon automatically included on every order placed in that store.

Shipping inventory to us

Each addon row has a Packing Slip button. Print that slip, include it with the box of inventory you ship to PrintOps, and we'll receive the stock into your bin. Your On Hand count updates after we receive the shipment.

Inventory decrements automatically as orders ship. If you run low, you'll get an email at the reorder threshold you set when the addon was created.

Storage and size limits

  • Standard bin size: 6" tall × 8" wide × 12" deep
  • One item per bin. Each approved addon gets its own bin — you can't combine multiple SKUs into one.
  • Maximum item size: 6" × 8" card stock

Oversized items: contact us at [email protected] to discuss options before submitting a request.

Pricing

Addons are billed alongside your normal monthly invoice. There are two charges:

  • $5 per bin, per month — flat storage fee for keeping your inventory on our shelves.
  • $0.50 per item, per order — insert fee charged each time the addon is included in an order we ship.

So a store with one approved addon ($5/month storage) that ships 200 orders containing that addon in a month would see an additional $5 + ($0.50 × 200) = $105 on that month's invoice.
