Got a Great Idea?
Put It on a Shirt.
Create a custom shirt, launch a campaign page, and let your supporters order online — no manual order forms, no collecting checks, no upfront cost. Perfect for teams, schools, groups, events, fundraisers, and anyone with a great idea.
How It Works
From picking your shirt to celebrating a successful campaign — here's the full path, broken down into eight simple steps.
Pick Your Shirt
Browse our catalog of premium blanks and choose the garment that fits your group — t-shirts, long sleeves, hoodies, and more.
Create Your Design
Open our product designer, upload your artwork, choose your print locations, and pick your colors. See your design come to life on the garment in real time.
Set Your Goal
Name your campaign, write your story, set your minimum shirt goal, choose your dates, and set your price. You're in control.
Connect Stripe
If you're fundraising, connect your Stripe account to receive your earnings. It only takes a few minutes — and Athens Print Shop never sees your banking info.
Share Your Campaign
Once approved, you get a shareable link. Send it by email, text, or social media — Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp, anywhere. One link reaches your whole group.
Collect Orders
Supporters visit your link, choose their size, and check out securely on their own schedule. No spreadsheets, no chasing people down — orders come in automatically.
Hit Your Goal
When your campaign reaches its minimum by the end date, every supporter's payment is captured automatically. If it falls short, no one is charged — no risk for anyone.
Production Begins
We print, sort, and prepare every order. You'll be notified when it's ready for pickup or shipped directly to your supporters. You celebrate — we handled the rest.

Get StartedBefore You Start
Have these ready before you create your campaign — it'll make the process smooth and quick.
Product / Shirt Selection
Know which garment you want from our catalog — t-shirt, long sleeve, hoodie, etc. You'll pick it in the product designer before creating your campaign.
Artwork / Design
Have your logo, artwork, or design ready to upload. You can also add text directly in our product designer. The design is locked once your campaign is approved.
Campaign Name
A clear, catchy name for your campaign — e.g. "Athens Bulldogs 2026 Fundraiser." This appears on your campaign page and when supporters share your link.
Campaign Description
A short story about why people should support your campaign. What's the goal? Who benefits? Why does it matter? A good story helps you sell more shirts.
Sales Goal
The minimum number of shirts needed for the campaign to be funded. If you reach this number by the end date, everyone is charged and shirts go into production.
Campaign Information
Your campaign dates (start and end), the sizes you want to offer, any per-size upcharges, your selling price, and how customers receive their shirts.
Organizer Information
Your name and the organization, team, or group you represent. This is shown on your campaign page so supporters know who's behind it.
Stripe Account
If you're fundraising (earning money from sales), you'll need to connect a Stripe account. Have your identity and bank information ready — Stripe handles this securely.
Stripe Connect
If you're fundraising (earning money from your campaign), you'll need to connect a Stripe account. Here's what that means — in plain English.
Why Do I Need Stripe Connect?
When you choose to earn money from your campaign (Fundraising mode), the earnings need to go somewhere. Stripe Connect is the secure payment infrastructure that handles collecting payments from your supporters and sending your earnings to your bank account. Athens Print Shop uses Stripe to process all campaign payments — Stripe is one of the most trusted payment platforms in the world.
How to Connect Stripe
Click "Connect Stripe Account"
From your campaign detail page (after submitting your campaign), click the Connect Stripe button. We'll create a Stripe Express account for you and redirect you to Stripe.
Stripe Verifies Your Account
Stripe will ask for information needed to verify your account — this may include identity, business, tax, and bank details. This is required by financial regulations, not Athens Print Shop.
Complete the Stripe Onboarding
Finish the short setup process on Stripe's secure website. You may be able to start accepting payments before the process is fully complete — Stripe will let you know if anything else is needed.
Return to Athens Print Shop
Once you've completed the setup, you'll be returned to Athens Print Shop. Your Stripe connection will be confirmed and your campaign will be ready to go live.
Your Information Is Secure
Athens Print Shop does not see or store your banking information. Stripe handles all of that securely on their own platform. We only see whether your Stripe account is connected and ready to receive earnings — nothing more.

Everything you need to do, in order. Work through this list and you'll have a campaign ready to share in no time.
Campaign Lifecycle
Every campaign moves through these stages — from your first design idea to the final delivered order.
Tips for a Successful Campaign
A few friendly recommendations to help your campaign reach its goal.
Use a Great Design
A clear, eye-catching design sells more shirts. Make sure your artwork is high-resolution and looks good on the garment color you chose.
Tell Your Story
Write a compelling campaign description. Explain why people should support your campaign and who benefits. People buy into a story, not just a shirt.
Share Everywhere
Share your campaign link by email, text, and every social media platform you use. The more people who see it, the more shirts you'll sell.
Don't Run It Too Long
Shorter campaigns create urgency. Two to three weeks is often the sweet spot — long enough to spread the word, short enough that people act now.
Ask Your Inner Circle First
Get your team, family, and close friends to order early. Early momentum builds social proof and encourages others to jump in.
Price It Right
Set a price that covers your costs and leaves room for your goal — but don't price it so high that supporters hesitate. Check similar campaigns for reference.
Post Updates
Share progress updates on social media as orders come in. "We're halfway there!" motivates the next wave of supporters to order.
Offer the Right Sizes
Make sure you offer the sizes your group actually needs. If you're not sure, offer the full range — you can always hide sizes you don't want.
