4. Add a partner

Set up production partners

After the connection is successful, in accordance with Etsy’s policy, you need to locate “Settings” in your Etsy backend. Click on “Production Partners” and add JetPrint as your partner, ensuring it is added to your list. This step is crucial.

Follow these steps:
Settings >> Production Partners >> Add a new production partner

Add production partner information

Fill in the information as follows:
Production partner: JetPrint
Location: China
*About production partner:
Example: JetPrint makes products and fulfills orders for me.
You can also customize this as you see fit.

You have the option to hide the production partner’s name by clicking the “Hide” button. If you choose to hide it, enter a descriptive title in the input box, which will appear instead of the production partner’s name. However, we don’t recommend doing this.

*About your partnership:

Regarding your partnership, you can fill in the three options in this section based on your actual situation.

6.4 When listing a product, in the “Product Pricing” step of JetPrint, you can view the delivery options currently available in your store.

Tip: If you use a delivery option named “JetPrint Delivery Option” and make modifications, we strongly recommend updating the name after the modification to avoid confusion about the delivery option when releasing the next product.

You can modify the delivery options, shipping country, and shipping fee in your Etsy store management. It’s important to note that modifications made here do not affect your JetPrint account. If you set your product to have free shipping, remember to add the product shipping fee charged by JetPrint to the product price to avoid unnecessary issues.

7. Sync to your store

After publishing, the products you design will be synchronized to your Etsy shop management, and Etsy will charge you $0.2. Please note that this fee is charged by Etsy, not JetPrint. If you find that your customers can’t see the uploaded product, just wait a few minutes for it to become visible to them.
