Frequently Asked Questions
What is make-on-demand dropshipping?
Which make-on-demand companies connect to Spark Shipping?
The current directory lists MWW On Demand, Gooten, Shortrun Posters, Through6, SPOKE Custom Products, Graphik Dimensions, SunFrog, Dream Junction, Casestry, TSC Miami, DTG2Go, WHCC, Printful, and Marco Fine Arts. Marco Fine Arts is currently marked Beta. Check the live directory because availability and integration status can change.
How do orders reach my make-on-demand partners?
Spark Shipping can route each order or line item to the production partner mapped to that product. If one customer order contains products made by different partners, the relevant line items can be sent to each partner separately. The order format and fields depend on the partner's integration.
How does product availability work when items are made after purchase?
Availability is usually driven by the production partner's catalog and the materials or blank products they can currently produce. Spark Shipping can use supported partner data to add new products, update availability, or remove retired items from sale. The exact stock and catalog signals vary by partner.
Can I work with multiple make-on-demand partners in one store?
Yes. You can connect multiple production partners and map each product to the partner that makes it. Spark Shipping can then route orders using those mappings and collect supported tracking after shipment. This lets one storefront offer products produced by different companies without manually forwarding every order.
Can I sell made-to-order and stocked products in the same store?
Yes. Made-to-order products can be routed to production partners, while stocked products can go to your warehouse, a 3PL, or a dropshipping supplier. Spark Shipping uses the product mappings and routing rules you configure for each fulfillment source. Mixed orders can be separated by line item when required.
How do customers receive tracking for made-to-order products?
After a connected production partner ships the item, Spark Shipping can retrieve the supported tracking data and send it back to your store or sales channel. Your normal customer notification can then be triggered. Production-status updates before shipment depend on what the partner's integration provides.
Can Spark Shipping connect a production partner with a custom ordering system?
Potentially. Basic connections can use supported CSV, XML, or email workflows. More advanced connections may use an API, EDI, or FTP. Spark Shipping must review the product data, order format, customization fields, and tracking method before confirming what can be automated.
Can Spark Shipping update prices when production costs change?
Yes, when the production partner supplies the required cost data. Spark Shipping can apply your configured markup, margin, tier, MAP, or MSRP rules and update selling prices through the supported site-pricing workflow. The available pricing fields and update schedule depend on the partner connection.
