How To Manually Enter A Dropshipping Order

Here are a few reasons why you may need to enter a dropshipping order

As you are building your clothing line, you may find that from time to time you need to enter a dropshipping transaction manually.

For example, maybe your friend saw you wearing a shirt and wanted to buy one from you and gave you cash for it. Now you want to have the t shirt made and shipped right to their door. Or perhaps, one of your best customers experienced a customer service issue and you simply want to provide them with a t shirt without them having to purchase a new one. Finally, perhaps there are a few instagram influencers that you want to hook up with shirts, but you don't want them to have to purchase the shirts from your online store.

In all of these cases, it's probably best to simply enter the dropshipping order directly on the Apliiq website. This avoids you having to charge your own card for the order in your store, or creating a discount code for yourself.

Starting A Dropship Order

The first step is to find the product you'd like to dropship and to go do the saved design page for that product.  You can find all of your saved designs in the saved design page of your account.

Once there click the next button and select the "dropship this product" option
