We know ordering custom products can come with a few questions, so we’ve put together this handy FAQ to make things easy. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, feel free to reach out - we’re happy to help!

Ordering & Payment

Below are some of are common questions about ordering and payments

How do I place an order?

The easiest way to get started is by requesting a quote through our website.

Tip: The more detail you provide, the better we can tailor the right solution for you.

Once your quote is approved, we’ll take care of the artwork process and move your order into production.

For smaller orders or faster turnaround requirements, we recommend ordering through our sister brand, Tiddys™. Their platform allows you to design and order online with quick and express turnaround options.

For larger quantities, custom requirements, or fully tailored solutions, working directly with Capital Prints ensures the best result for your business.

Do you offer discounts for bulk orders?

Yep! Generally speaking the bigger the order the bigger the discount. Just reach out to our team directly to request a quote.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept payments via Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) or a by card via secure payment link sent after your quote has been approved. A select few pre-approved customers may have account terms.

Can I pay when I collect my order?

Payment is usually required before production or collection to keep things running smoothly and ensure your order is ready on time. Be sure to check your payment terms - prepayment is generally the case, and for larger orders, we may request a deposit upfront to get things started.

For the select few pre-approved customers with account terms, your order can be released without payment.

Can I change my order after approval?

Once you approve a quote, production gets underway pretty quickly. Changes may result in extra costs (like artwork fees or restocking charges), and if you need to cancel after approval, a cancellation fee will apply.

Can I get a sample before placing the full order?

Yes, for most products, samples may be available upon request. The can be quoted at the time of request.

Do you have a showroom?

Yes, we have a showroom available by appointment only.

To ensure you get the most out of your visit, we ask that you contact our team in advance to book a time. This allows us to have the right samples prepared and a team member available to guide you through the options.

Please note, our showroom is not open for walk-ins.

Artwork

Below are some common questions about shipping, returns, and exchanges

What file formats do you accept for artwork?

We prefer vector files (EPS, AI, PDF) for the highest print quality. If you provide a different format (JPG, PNG), we may need to convert it, which is generally covered through the setup fees.

Will I receive a proof before production?

If your order includes a new design or product, you will receive a digital artwork proof for approval before production begins. It is your responsibility to review all details carefully, as changes cannot be made once approved.

For straight repeat orders (where the design remains unchanged), a proof will not be provided, and the order will move directly into production to ensure a faster turnaround.

Can you match my exact brand colours?

We strive to match colours as accurately as possible, but slight variations (up to 10%) may occur due to different decoration methods, fabric types, consumables. If exact colour matching is critical, we recommend ordering a physical sample (fees apply).

What happens if my artwork has an error?

We print exactly as per the approved proof. While we do our best to identify any obvious errors, due to the high volume of orders, we cannot guarantee that all mistakes will be caught. It is your responsibility to carefully review and correct any errors before approving the proof.

Production Times & Delivery

Below are some common questions about our production times & delivery

How long does production take?

Production times vary based on what you’re ordering and how it’s decorated. Below is a general guide:

- In-house printed/embroidered apparel: 7–10 business days

Promotional products: 1–4 weeks (depending on the decoration method)

If you’re working with a tight deadline, let us know early, and we’ll do our best to make it happen!

Can you do rush orders?

Sometimes! Well, most times! Get in touch, and we’ll see what we can do. Priority fees may apply.

Do you offer delivery?

Returns & Refunds

Can I return or exchange product after it has been decorated?

Because all our products are custom-made, we don’t accept returns or exchanges unless there’s a fault with the product.
