Basic and Premium Shop Service
CafePress.com currently offers two types of Shops: Basic and Premium. Basic Shops are free of charge. Premium Shops offer more features and products for a fee. You can receive a 15-Day free trial on your first Premium Shop. Premium Shop Service fees are automatically billed one month from the date of opening your shop (or after your trial ends).
Premium Shop Service Plans
- $6.95 per month
- $18.45 for 3 months
- $34.95 for 6 months
- $59.95 for 1 year (only $5 per month!)
After the trial period, your Account will automatically be subscribed to the Premium Shop Service on a monthly basis ($6.95 per month) unless you choose otherwise. All subscription fees will first be deducted from CafeCash that you accrue in your Account. If you have not accrued enough CafeCash to pay for the Premium Shop Service, your credit card will be billed. You may choose a discounted Premium Shop Service plan in your Account (e.g. 3 months, 6 months, or 1 year plan). Learn More.
CafePress.com provides its Shopkeepers with an opportunity to feature their designs and products in the CafePress.com Marketplace*. CafePress.com shops are automatically opted into the CafePress Marketplace, however, Shopkeepers can choose to opt their shops out of the CafePress Marketplace through the "Shop Management" screen in their account. By opting into the CafePress Marketplace you are agreeing that your products will be eligible for Affiliate driven sales.
* Certain product types may not be available in the CafePress Marketplace.
You will earn a Shop Performance Bonus for sales of products added to a buyer's cart from your shop. The Shop Performance Bonus is calculated in stepped up tiers based on the total amount of Base Price sales of products added to a buyer's cart while in your shop each month. Purchases made by Shopkeepers from their own shops (including Bulk Orders) and third party fulfillment items are not eligible for Shop Performance Bonus credit.
| Tiers | Monthly Base Price Sales | Bonus Percentage of Monthly Base Price Sales |
| Tier 0 | $0-$100.00 | 0% |
| Tier 1 | $100.01-$500.00 | 10% |
| Tier 2 | $500.01 - $1,000 | 15% |
| Tier 3 | $1,000.01 - $2,000 | 20% |
| Tier 4 | $2,000.01 - $5,000 | 25% |
| Tier 5 | above $5,000.01 | 30% |
For example, if you made a total of $1,300.00 in Base Price sales for a single month, your bonus will look like this:
| Tiers | Total Monthly Base Price Sales of $1300.00 | Bonus % of Base Price Sales | Actual Bonus Received | |
| Tier 0 | $0-$100.00 | $100.00 | 0% | $ 0.00 |
