What Premium Unlocks

Upgrading to Premium isn’t just about a discount — you gain useful features and expanded account capacity. Key benefits include:

• Up to 20% discount on eligible products in the Printify catalog. Printify Help: Premium
• Connect up to 10 stores (vs 5 on the free account). Printify Help: Premium
• Printify Connect support — premium-level support, especially for order/production issues. Printify Help: Premium
• Early access to new features and tools before free users see them. Printify Pricing
• Better value for sellers with volume — the more products you order, the more that discount pays off.

How the 20% Discount Works

When you upgrade to Premium, the discount is applied to the product cost displayed in the catalog for eligible items. You’ll notice lower “your cost” prices after you subscribe. Printify Help

However, not every item or provider may participate in the discount—some special or premium items may still bypass it. Always check provider listings and cost details.

Annual vs Monthly Plan Comparison

Printify allows you to pay monthly or annually. Paying yearly usually nets you a lower effective monthly rate. According to their pricing page:

• Monthly: $29 per month
• Annual: ~$24.99/month equivalent (billed yearly at a discount). Printify Pricing

Choosing annual billing helps you save roughly 14–15% over paying monthly. But because your business may change, some sellers prefer to remain month-to-month until revenue is stable.

ROI: When Premium Pays for Itself

The key question is: does your discount savings outweigh the $29 cost? Let’s run a few scenarios:

Scenario 1: Lower-volume seller

• You sell 15 items per month.
• Your average base cost per item is $10, discount = 20%, so savings ≈ $2 per item.
• Total monthly savings = 15 × $2 = $30, just above the subscription cost.

This means Premium breaks even just over 15 sales of that type per month.

Scenario 2: Higher-volume or higher-cost items

• You sell 50 items per month.
• Average base cost is $20 (e.g., hoodies or specialty items), discount yields $4 savings per item.
• Total monthly savings = 50 × $4 = $200, net profit well above the subscription cost.

So in general, once your monthly discounted savings exceed $29, Premium becomes net positive. For many sellers, this threshold is reached when doing ~20–25 mid-range units. It scales more boldly as you grow.

How to Upgrade / Cancel Premium

Upgrading or canceling is easy:

1. Log in to Printify → go to Account / Pricing settings.
2. Select Premium plan (monthly or annual). Billing begins immediately upon upgrade. Printify Help: Premium Plan
3. To avoid being charged again, cancel before the next renewal. Cancel instructions
4. After cancellation, you’ll lose Premium benefits and the discounts will drop off. Your connected stores remain functioning in the free plan.

When Premium Is & Isn’t Worth It

Premium is worth it when:

• Your monthly discounts exceed or approach $29 in savings.
• You need more than 5 stores connected.
• You sell higher-cost items (hoodies, all-over prints), making 20% discount significant.
• You value faster premium support or early access features.

Premium might not be worth it if:

• Your volume is low — fewer than ~10–15 units a month.
• Your product margins are already very tight — discount savings don’t move the needle much.
• You frequently shift product lines or suppliers and can’t take full advantage of the discount structure.
