Spreadshirt

Founded in Germany by graduate student Lukasz Gadowski, Spreadshirt is an online platform for apparel merchandising that allows internet site operators to create their own online shops for free and sell customized products. Spreadshirt makes it possible for private and commercial internet site operators to market their homepages quickly, simply, and independently. Internet site operators can create an online shop with individually created products and connect it with their homepage within minutes. To operate a Spreadshirt shop, you just need Internet access, your own designs or logo, and to market your shop online. Spreadshirt will take care of the rest from payment processing, production, and shipping to after-sales service.

There are already more than 300,000 existing Spreadshirt shop owners. These consist of private individuals, companies, organizations, bands and artists. We have over 80 printable products available to you. The use of our designs and setting up a shop is free. As a shop owner, you can earn commission (individually determined) on every order through your Spreadshirt shop.
