Welcome to the Hoplix blog!
Hoplix is Italy’s first Print On Demand and Dropshipping platform.
Print On Demand (or POD) is an e-commerce business model in which a seller sells customized products that are printed on demand. The seller does not have to purchase or stock any products in advance, but simply creates a design and uploads it to a website or marketplace. When a customer places an order, the vendor forwards the order to a print-on-demand service provider, who takes care of printing and shipping the product to the customer.
Dropshipping is an e-commerce business model in which a seller sells products that he or she does not have in stock. When a customer places an order, the seller forwards the order to a vendor, who takes care of shipping the product directly to the customer. The vendor then does not have to deal with shipping or packaging.
Hoplix offers the ability to create and sell customized products, such as t-shirts, posters, canvases, mugs, and more. It takes care of the printing and shipping of the products, so the seller does not have to worry about any of that.
You also have two options for selling, through Store opened for free on Hoplix or integrate the products you create on Hoplix on an external platform and sell through it.
Hoplix will take care of printing and shipping in both cases.
