Affiliate Income Stacked on Top
Every other school the administrator refers earns the referring school 10% of that schools monthly subscription forever plus $1 per piece that school ever sells. A medium-sized district that refers 5-10 partner schools layers $6,000-$15,000 in annual passive affiliate income on top of the direct shop margin.

Start FreeFrequently Asked Questions
How conservative are these numbers?
They assume modest participation (less than 30% of families ever buy a piece). A well-promoted school shop can outperform these by 2-3x in years 2 and 3.
What is the breakeven on Self-Service VIP?
About 4 hoodies or 8 tees per month covers the $59/mo platform fee. Most school shops clear this in week one of going live.
Does the school have to fulfill orders?
No. Every order ships direct to the buyer from the US print partner network. School handles zero fulfillment.
