About Our Two Platforms

Welcome! You’re currently on Treat Pod Classic – our original print-on-demand platform with the widest range of products.

You now also have access to our newer Treat Pod platform, which has powerful integrations and tools to help you automate more of your business.

Both platforms are run by the same team, with the same print quality, pricing and fulfilment. The main difference is how you work with us and which tools you need.

• Treat Pod Classic (this site - treatpod.co.uk)
  Our legacy catalogue with the most products currently available. Ideal if you want access to the widest range of blanks and printed products, and you’re happy to place orders manually.

• Treat Pod (new platform: treatpod.com)
  Our modern, integrated platform with built-in product editor, mockup creator and direct integrations to Etsy and Shopify. Best if you want your orders to flow automatically from your store to our fulfilment.

Over time, all products will move to the new platform. Until then, you can choose the platform that best fits how you sell right now.

Which Platform Should I Use?

If you sell on Etsy or Shopify

We strongly recommend using our new platform at TreatPod.com.

• Connect your Etsy or Shopify store directly.
• Create products and mockups once, then list them in your shop.
• Orders flow through to us automatically for hands-off fulfilment.

You can still browse the full product range here on Classic, but if the product you want is available on the new platform, it’s almost always easier to set it up there.

 

If you don’t have an online store (yet)

You can:

• Use Treat Pod Classic to explore our full product range and place orders manually.
• Or, if you’re planning to open an Etsy or Shopify store soon, it’s worth creating your account on the new platform now, so you’re ready to plug it in later.

 

Existing Treat Pod Classic customers

You’re welcome to keep using this site as normal. However, you may benefit from moving some or all of your products over to the new platform if:

• You want automatic order fulfilment from Etsy or Shopify.
• You’d like to use our product editor and mockup tools.
• Your favourite products are now available on the new platform.

Not sure what’s best? You can always get in touch and we’ll help you decide.
