Placing an Order: Cart, Checkout & Payment
Last updated
Once your design and pricing look right, here's how to actually complete your order.
Adding to cart
- Finish your design in the design tool (or select the options you want on a non-customized product).
- Confirm the quantity, colors, and any options are correct — the price shown updates live as you adjust these.
- Click Add to Cart.
Reviewing your cart
Before checking out, your cart shows:
- Each item with its design/preview thumbnail
- The price breakdown per item
- Total quantity and cost
If something looks off (wrong quantity, wrong color, missing personalization), it's easiest to fix it now rather than after checkout — go back into the design or adjust quantity directly from the cart if that option is available.
A note if you're shopping on a team/group store
If you're ordering through a specific team, school, or company's store, your cart is scoped to that store — items from a team store and items from the main site won't mix together in the same cart. If your cart looks empty or wrong after switching between the main site and a team store, that's expected — they're separate.
Checking out
- Click Checkout from your cart.
- Enter or confirm your shipping details.
- Choose your payment method and enter payment details.
- Some shops offer additional production or personalization fields at checkout (like a preferred pickup date, if the shop offers pickup) — fill these in if shown.
- Review your order total, then submit.
After you order
You'll get an order confirmation by email, and can track status from My Account → Orders (see Tracking Your Order & Understanding Order Statuses). If the shop requires proof approval before production, you'll be notified separately when your proof is ready (see Approving Your Design Proof).
Payment troubleshooting
- Payment declined — double-check your card details and billing address match exactly what your bank has on file.
- Checkout won't complete — try a different browser or device, or clear your browser cache, then try again.
- Charged but no confirmation email — check spam first; if it's genuinely missing, contact the shop with your payment confirmation as proof of purchase.
