Print-on-Demand or POD services are all the rage right now. T-shirt printing services like TeeLaunch, TeeSpring, etc. are highly popular among drop shippers.
However, there’s more to POD than just selling t-shirts online. Even though the above-mentioned services offer other items for customization as well, but they still lack one essential wearable.
That is footwear. People love fancy shoes, and they want to customize these shoes to their liking with custom artwork, logos, prints, etc.
Pillow Profits is a POD service that’s mainly focused on providing numerous types of shoes available for custom printing. From stylish athletic sneakers to classic leather boots, all types of footwear are available for POD.
Other items like tote bags, pillow covers, bed sheets, etc. are also available, but Pillow Profits offers a wide selection of shoes, ready for customization.

Pillow Profits Vs. GearBubble
Even though both these services are POD in nature, they are still drastically different from each other in terms of their business model.
Pillow Profits integrates into your Shopify store and you can start selling products on your own store. They charge a subscription fee of $29.99 per month for using their services.
GearBubble offers a platform where you can create custom products and sell directly on their platform.
You can also move products to your Shopify with their integration option, but you can only move 25 products to your Shopify store with the basic GearBubble account.
GearBubble is free to use and they only take a cut when you make a sale. So, you can create as many bestselling products as you want and you will only be charged when they are sold.
Pillow Profits, however, is the only service that offers shoes and premium footwear for POD out of these. GearBubble does not offer footwear products.
So, if you are looking to create a premium shoe store with your custom designs then Pillow Profits takes the advantage over GearBubble.
