What you get

Every order, every time.

A true 24-hour turnaround

Orders placed before 2 PM ET on a business day print that afternoon and ship the next morning. Not “up to” 24 hours, and not a queue position — a printed order.

No minimum order

One transfer costs the same per square inch as a thousand. There is no tier chart to hit and no penalty for a small run.

Priced by printed area

$0.0249 per square inch, and colour count makes no difference — a photographic design costs the same as a one-colour logo at the same size.

Cold-peel film, ready to press

Press, let the film cool for 20–30 seconds, peel, then second-press. No special equipment beyond a heat press.

Optional gang cutting

Add cutting at $0.25 per copy and your transfers arrive cut out and ready to lay down, with no trimming on your end.

Your artwork, untouched

Files are stored and printed exactly as you upload them. Nothing is auto-cropped, recoloured or "cleaned up" without you asking for it.

How ordering works

Three steps, no quote form.

  1. 1
    Upload your artwork

    PNG, JPG or PDF. We check the DPI automatically as it uploads and flag anything that would print soft at the size you have chosen — before it runs, not after.

  2. 2
    Set your size and quantity

    The price updates live as you type. You see the exact total, including any cutting and shipping, before you pay anything.

  3. 3
    We print and ship from Ontario

    Same-day printing on anything ordered before 2 PM ET, shipped tracked the next morning. You press; we stay out of the way.

Compatibility

What DTF transfers work on.

DTF is the most fabric-tolerant decoration method in common use, which is the main reason it has replaced vinyl and, for short runs, screen printing. The temperature changes with the fabric — that is the only thing you need to get right.

DTF press temperatures by fabric type
FabricPress temperatureTimeNotes
Cotton305–315°F (150–157°C)10–15 sThe easiest surface. Pre-press 3–5 s first.
Poly-cotton blends305–315°F10–15 sBehaves like cotton in most cases.
100% polyester270–285°F (132–140°C)8–10 sWatch for dye migration on light prints over dark garments.
Performance / activewear270–285°F8–10 sKeep the dwell short; test one garment first.
Fleece and hoodies305–315°F10–15 sHeavier fabric benefits from the longer end of the range.
Canvas and tote bags305–315°F10–15 sFirm pressure matters more than time here.
Hats and curved surfaces305–315°F10–15 sNeeds a cap press or a small platen to make even contact.
Two bands cover almost every garment you will press. The only real skill is knowing which one you are on before you close the platen.

A laser thermometer is worth the twenty dollars — a lot of press dials read 15–20°F off, and that gap is the difference between a print that lasts and one that lifts. The full pressing guide covers pressure, peeling and the second press in detail.

Pricing

What it actually costs.

Width × height × $0.0249 per square inch. That is the whole formula. There is no setup fee, no art fee on standard files, and no minimum quantity.

Sizes

Any size up to 22.75" wide.

You are not buying a fixed sheet size — you are buying the printed area you actually need. Our roll is 22.75 inches wide and effectively unlimited in length, which covers everything from a 3" sleeve hit to a full back print or an all-over design.

The three placements that cover most apparel orders, with the sizes people actually order them at.

Pressing

Getting a print that lasts.

Pre-press

3–5 seconds, platen closed, no transfer. Dries humidity and flattens seams.

First press

10–15 seconds at 40–60 psi, at the temperature for your fabric.

Cold peel

Wait 20–30 seconds until the film is cool to the touch. Hot-peeling ruins the print.

Second press

10–15 seconds under a silicone sheet or parchment. This is the step people skip.

The second press is not optional if you want the print to survive washing. It melts the ink into the fibres, drops the surface sheen to a soft matte, and is the single biggest factor in wash durability. Skipping it — along with under-pressing — accounts for most edges-lifting complaints in the whole category.

Shipping

Printed in Ontario, delivered across Canada.

Every order ships tracked from our Ontario facility. Because it is a domestic shipment there is no customs process, no duty and no broker — which is where most of the delay comes from when transfers are printed outside Canada. Shipping is a flat $9.99, and free once your pre-tax subtotal is over $275. We ship to the United States too.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How fast are DTF transfers in Canada?
Order before 2 PM ET on a business day and we print the same day and ship the next morning. Most Canadian orders arrive within 24–48 hours of shipping, tracked, from our Ontario facility.
Is there a minimum order?
No. One transfer or a hundred — the same rate per square inch either way. There is no setup fee and no art fee on standard files.
How much do DTF transfers cost?
Printed area is charged at $0.0249 per square inch. A 6" × 6" print is 36 square inches, so $0.90. Optional gang cutting adds $0.25 per copy if you want them cut out and ready to press.
What files do you accept?
PNG, JPG and PDF. A PNG with a genuinely transparent background at 300 DPI at final print size is the safest option. Files are DPI-checked on upload, so anything that would print soft gets flagged before it runs.
What can I press DTF transfers on?
Cotton, poly-cotton blends, 100% polyester, performance fabric, fleece, canvas and most tote bags. Temperatures differ by fabric: 305–315°F on cotton and most blends, 270–285°F on heat-sensitive synthetics.
Do you ship across Canada?
Yes — tracked from Ontario, usually 24–48 hours in transit to most of the country, and we ship to the United States as well. Shipping is a flat $9.99, free once your pre-tax subtotal is over $275.
