Custom Transfer Stickers

(37)

Create full-color custom transfer stickers for clean, smooth, hard surfaces. The temporary carrier film keeps the artwork aligned during application, then peels away so the design remains without a large surrounding background.

These vinyl transfer stickers are also known as custom transfer decals and work especially well as logo transfer stickers on compatible glass, finished metal, acrylic, and sealed rigid plastic.

Choose a 2-, 3-, 4-, or 5-inch longest-side format, upload one high-quality artwork file, and review the digital proof before production.

What remains after application

The carrier leaves. The complete design stays.

Transfer film is an application tool, not part of the finished look. Once the artwork has bonded to the compatible surface, peel the carrier away at a low angle.

Questions, answered

Before you upload the artwork

What is a transfer sticker?

It is artwork supplied with a temporary carrier film that keeps separate elements aligned during application. After the artwork is pressed onto a compatible surface, the carrier is peeled away.

Which sizes and quantities are available?

Choose a 2-, 3-, 4-, or 5-inch longest-side format in quantities of 50, 100, 200, 500, or 1,000. Gloss and matte finish options are available.

Do I need a heat press?

No. These transfer stickers use pressure application. Clean and dry the surface, position the design, burnish firmly, and peel the carrier slowly.

Which surfaces work best?

Use clean, dry, smooth, hard surfaces such as glass, finished metal, acrylic, and compatible sealed rigid plastic. Avoid fabric, silicone, rough walls, porous surfaces, and soft-touch coatings.

How is the selected size measured?

The selected measurement applies to the artwork’s longest side. The other dimension scales proportionally according to the approved design.

What artwork files should I upload?

Vector PDF, SVG, EPS, or AI files are preferred. High-resolution PNG or JPG artwork can also work. Use the cleanest original file available.

Can very small text and fine lines be transferred?

They need review at the final size. Very thin elements, tiny gaps, and small separate pieces may require adjustment to transfer cleanly and remain readable.

Will I see a proof before production?

Yes. Review spelling, scale, spacing, fine details, and the complete transfer layout before approving production.
