How to price a DTF T-shirt

With DTF, the cost of each garment is made up of the blank garment, the transfer for each design, pressing and your time. If you print front and back, that's two transfers.

Bought or home-made transfers

If you buy ready-printed transfers, enter your supplier's price by size (chest logo, A5, A4, A3). If you have a DTF printer, the cost is the film, ink and powder each design uses. The calculator includes typical prices for both.

An example

A $3.30 cotton T-shirt with a $2 A4 transfer on the front and another on the back has $7.30 of material, before adding waste, pressing, your time, packaging, fees, your profit and tax.

Frequently asked questions

Which is better, DTF or sublimation?

DTF works on cotton, polyester and blends, including dark garments. Sublimation gives great results on light polyester and on items made for sublimation, such as mugs. Suma3D has a calculator for both.

Can I quote by quantity?

Yes. In the quote you choose how many units the customer wants and the total is worked out with tax and quantity discounts.
