Whether you're outfitting a team, stocking a merch line, or preparing for an event, bulk ordering DTF transfers can significantly reduce your per-unit cost. Here's how to maximize your savings.
A gang sheet is a large sheet with multiple transfers arranged together. Instead of ordering 20 individual transfers, you fit all 20 on a single sheet.
Available sizes:
- 22" × 24" — fits 4-8 standard transfers
- 22" × 48" — fits 8-16 standard transfers
- 22" × 72" — fits 12-24 standard transfers
- 22" × 96" — fits 16-32 standard transfers
The cost per sheet increases with size, but the cost per individual transfer decreases significantly.
Scenario: 20 transfers at 4"×4" each
Individual ordering: 20 × $3.50 = $70.00 ($3.50 each)
Gang sheet (22"×48"): ~$45.00 ($2.25 each)
Savings: ~36% per transfer
Savings increase with larger sheets and more transfers. For a full 22"×96" sheet packed with small designs, you can get transfers under $1.50 each.
1. Go to our Gang Sheet Builder
2. Select your sheet size
3. Upload your designs
4. Drag and arrange them on the canvas
5. The builder shows a real-time preview and total price
6. Checkout and we produce the entire sheet
You cut individual transfers apart after receiving the sheet. Each transfer has a clean border for easy cutting.
Gang sheets can contain different designs. This is one of DTF's biggest advantages over screen printing.
Examples:
- 5 copies of Design A + 5 copies of Design B + 10 copies of Design C = 1 gang sheet
- 20 completely unique personalized transfers = 1 gang sheet
- Mix marketplace designs with your own uploads
Pay for the sheet, not per-design. The content doesn't affect the price.
1. Trim unnecessary whitespace from your design files before uploading
2. Rotate designs to fit them more efficiently
3. Mix sizes — fill gaps with smaller designs
4. Use the snap-to-grid feature in our builder for even spacing
5. Leave at least 0.25" gap between transfers for clean cutting
Our builder includes an auto-arrange feature that optimizes placement automatically.
