Taproom Threads pricing builder

Build the merch run behind the idea.

Mix several digital designs into one practical order, or price a larger screen printed run when you already know what your customers want.

This builder provides a planning estimate using standard assumptions. Final pricing is confirmed after artwork, garment, placement, quantity, timing, tax, and shipping are reviewed.

What are you trying to make?

You do not need to force every merch idea into the same print process. Choose digital when variety and detailed artwork matter. Choose screen printing when one design has enough demand to justify the setup.

Build more variety

Combine designs into one quantity tier.

Every design can have its own garment, quantity, and print setup. The total number of pieces determines the base price for the entire order.

Add each designUse one row for every graphic in the order.

Quantities combineAll designs count toward the same price tier.

Choose locationsThe first print is included. A second small print adds $2.5; a second large print adds $3.25.

50 pieces combined Add 22 pieces to unlock the next tier.

Designs in this order

Start with one design or build a fuller lineup.

Buyer packages for individual fulfillment Enter the number of buyer packages, not the number of garments. Bulk packing is included; buyer fulfillment adds $1 per package.

Why cumulative pricing matters Three designs with 50 pieces each count as 150 total pieces. All three receive the 144+ base tier even when garments and artwork differ. Each design/garment group needs at least 12 pieces.

No digital setup fees Digital is usually the best fit for mixed designs, detailed artwork, reorders, and small-to-medium runs. Three locations, oversized or unusual placements, and prints across a full-zip center front need custom review.

Go bigger on a winner

Price one design across a larger run.

Screen printing begins at 72 pieces here. It becomes more attractive as quantities rise and the number of ink colors stays controlled.

Enter one quantityThe same design prints across the entire run.

Count visible colorsEnter the colors customers see at each location.

Choose garment toneDark garments automatically add a white underbase.

Garment One garment style per screen-print estimate.

Garment color

Print locations and colors

Count visible ink colors only. Required white underbases are added automatically.

Why screen printing may not win below 72 Every color and location needs its own screen. On smaller multicolor runs, those setup costs can make digital printing the more practical choice.
