Merch on WordPress

A merch store in WordPress, without another plugin

Installation

Three steps inside WordPress

1

Add a Custom HTML block

In the block editor, add "Custom HTML" where the shop should appear. In Elementor or another builder, use its HTML widget.

2

Paste the snippet

Your personal embed code from the app — a script tag and a container div.

3

Publish

The widget pulls catalog, prices and branding from the platform, so you never touch the code again.

Why on WordPress

What this actually solves for a WordPress shop

Works with any theme

It renders inside its own container, so your theme CSS and the widget do not fight each other.

No WooCommerce required

Cart, checkout and payments are handled by Merch5 — you do not have to run an e-commerce stack to sell three shirts.

Safe on updates

Because it is not a plugin, a WordPress or theme update cannot break it and it cannot open a hole in your site.

What you get either way

The platform behind the storefront

Print on demand

Nothing is produced until an order is paid. No stock money, no leftovers, no size guessing.

Worldwide fulfillment

Orders route to the production partner closest to the buyer and ship with tracking to 100+ countries.

A real catalog

Apparel from infant sizes to 3XL, plus caps, mugs, bottles and tote bags — full-color printing, no minimums.

Orders and analytics

Every order, customer and shipment status in one dashboard, with revenue and conversion per store.

99% satisfaction guarantee

Print or delivery problems are reprinted or refunded, with easy returns within 14 days.

Automatic payouts

Your margin is paid out every two weeks. You set the retail price, so you set the margin.

Fine print, honestly

Free to set up on WordPress. Paid out of orders you already received.

There is no subscription for the store and no fee for the integration. Printing and shipping are charged from the order itself, and everything above cost is yours.

Need branded packaging and inserts, or a custom setup? That lives on the paid plans — everything described on this page does not.

What a t-shirt actually costs

Printing and shipping: about $12 per unit, charged only after the order is paid
Your retail price: whatever you set — $34 is typical, the $22 difference is yours
Platform fee: none. No subscription, no setup, no per-store cost
Payout: automatic, every two weeks, no invoices to chase

WordPress questions

No. The widget brings its own cart and checkout. If you already run WooCommerce, the widget can live alongside it on separate pages.

Yes — Elementor, Beaver Builder, Divi and the block editor all have an HTML element, which is all it needs.

Nothing. Building the store, generating mockups and hosting are free. We charge printing and shipping out of an order only after your customer has paid for it.

We do. Each order is routed to the production partner closest to the buyer and ships with tracking to more than 100 countries. Print and delivery problems are on us, not on you.

Your margin accumulates in the dashboard and is paid out automatically every two weeks. You set the retail price, so you decide what that margin is.

Your WordPress site is ready. The store takes five minutes.

No up front costs, no inventory, no plugin to maintain.
