Everyone gets an Artwork Approval as part of their order
You want to make sure the item you're ordering will best represent your business. Before any order moves into production, we send through an artwork approval where you will have the chance to check the logo and/or text is correct. It will also indicate the size of the maximum decoration area, product colour, decoration colour(s) and the quantity ordered. Before your order moves through to production, this artwork will need to be approved so it's important all details are checked thoroughly.
If you’re unsure how your logo will look and want to see your approval prior to paying for your order, simply add the items to your cart, proceed to checkout and select “Order Now Pay After Art Approval” as the payment method. Your order will then be sent to our design team who will create the proof for you. Once you’re happy with the artwork, we can then send a link or invoice for payment and your order will move into production.
If you’re still unsure, we have a few more options that may help to put your mind at ease;
VIRTUAL SAMPLE
A virtual sample is a life-like digital representation of how your finished product will look. It's great to get an idea of how your chosen decoration will look on the finished product.
BLANK SAMPLE
If you want to see and feel the product before placing your order, a physical undecorated sample is ideal. The blank sample won't have your logo decoration however it is a cost-effective way to see the product to ensure the chosen item best represents your business.
PRE-PRODUCTION SAMPLE
A pre-production sample is a single run of your chosen item. There is time involved in setting up the decoration so it can be costly (approx $100-$200) to produce.
