Print-on-demand providers manufacture and ship custom, made-to-order products for your store through Squarespace Extensions. This service is ideal for selling branded products like photography, art prints, t-shirts, and tote bags without maintaining inventory.

When customers purchase from your Squarespace site, orders automatically go to the provider for production and shipping. You only pay production costs after making a sale.

Here's how to set up print-on-demand for your store:

1. Create a Store Page

• Set up a store page to showcase your products
• Connect a payment processor first
• Remove any existing products you plan to sell via print-on-demand

5. Order Management
