A Print Shop CRM With Online Ordering Built In

A print shop CRM with online ordering built in: an embeddable DTF gang-sheet builder on your own site, checkout on your Stripe, and every order into your CRM.

Adding online ordering to a print shop usually means bolting a separate storefront or a third-party marketplace onto a business that already has a CRM, then stitching the two together with exports and re-keying. Orders land in one system and customers live in another, and the seams show.

The cleaner approach is a CRM where online ordering is native, so a web order is just another job in the same system. Here is how PrintShopCRM builds online ordering in without a second platform.

Ordering that lives on your own site

PrintShopCRM gives you an embeddable DTF gang-sheet builder that drops onto your existing website in an iframe. Customers upload art, it auto-nests to the roll, and prices update live by the linear inch. They order on your domain, under your brand, with no marketplace in the middle taking a cut.

  • One snippet embeds the builder on a page you already control.
  • Uploaded art auto-nests to the fixed-width roll, usually 22 inches.
  • Live per-inch pricing as customers build their sheet.
  • Your branding and domain, no third-party marketplace fee.

Every web order becomes a real job

Because ordering is native, there is no export step. Each online order creates or matches a customer and generates an estimate inside your CRM, with the nested sheet attached and the size already known. Your team opens a job that is ready to produce, not a marketplace notification to transcribe.

  • A customer record created or matched automatically per order.
  • An estimate generated with used inches and price pre-filled.
  • The approved layout attached, ready for the RIP and hot folder.
  • Follow-up, proofing, and production all in the same system.

Payments on your Stripe, not a platform

Online orders check out through your own Stripe key, so the money lands in your account and PrintShopCRM is never the merchant of record. If you have not connected Stripe yet, orders arrive as quotes you can review and invoice. Either way, the sale flows straight into the CRM that runs the rest of your shop.

  • Checkout on your Stripe key, so payouts hit your account.
  • No platform cut skimmed off each online order.
  • No Stripe connected means orders arrive as quotes to approve.

Common Questions

Do I need to build a whole online store?

No. The gang-sheet builder embeds on a page of the website you already have, so there is no separate storefront to build or maintain. You get online ordering without standing up and running a second platform.

How do online orders connect to my other jobs?

They land in the same CRM as your counter and phone orders, as customers and estimates. There is no import or reconciliation step, because online ordering is native rather than a bolt-on, so a web order is just another job in your queue.

What if a customer orders but I have not set up Stripe?

The order still comes through, as a quote rather than a paid checkout. You can review it and send an invoice, then connect your Stripe key whenever you are ready to enable instant online payment.
