Custom gear made easy

Bring your designs to life on fabric with our custom heat transfers. These versatile decals use Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing technology to create vibrant stickers that can be easily applied to a wide range of fabrics. Whether you're branding T-shirts, personalising bags or adding flair to sweatshirts, our heat transfers offer a professional finish that's built to last.

So many options

We’re here to help you create the size, shape and style of transfer you want. You can upload designs of any shape you’d like — and then choose a size from 2 cm x 2 cm up to 55 cm x 55 cm. Then applying your stickers to a wide range of fabric is easy — just a press of heat. The sticker will become a soft, thin and durable part of the fabric — comfortable to wear and resistant to multiple washes.

Simple, stress-free creation

We're here to help make this process quick and straightforward. Once you’ve created your design file (see our FAQ section for helpful tips), we’ll print, package and send your one-of-a-kind creations. If you have items ready to customise, then you can apply your transfer stickers with direct heat and start showing off your work.

The sheets didn’t transfer properly and was a misprint on one image

Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:

We’re sorry to hear about the poor quality you experienced with your order. The sheets are not transferring properly, and the misprint on one of the images is certainly not the standard we want to provide. To help us investigate this further and find the best solution, please reply to this email with a photo of the issue. If your request is urgent, and you need an immediate solution, please reach out to our Customer Support team via https://www.vistaprint.ie/customer-care/help-centre/

Frequently asked questions

Here are some important tips to help:
You can keep your design all white, create a multi-coloured design on a white background or print without any white at all.
If you’d prefer the version without a white background, make sure the background of your design is empty.
We recommend using complex vector graphics, rather than solid-coloured images — this is the best way to show off what this printing technique can do. If you have any questions along the way, we have design experts ready to help you.

If you have a heat press, apply your transfer for 10–15 seconds at 150°C (3–4 bars). For smaller transfers, you can use a regular iron set to medium heat (150°C) for 30–40 seconds. Always place a sheet of baking paper between the iron and the transfer for protection.

Yes. Wait at least 24 hours to wash an item after you’ve applied a heat transfer. When you do wash, use a maximum temperature of 30°C and avoid bleach and harsh chemicals — don’t dry clean. If you need to tumble dry, you can, but we recommend air drying to make your transfers last even longer.

Our heat transfers use PET (polyethylene terephthalate) film as the transfer medium. PET is a polyester resin — it’s heat-resistant and has a special ink-absorbing coating that ensures high-definition, vibrant designs. The PET film holds the printed design before it's transferred to the fabric — this is a key part of the DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing process.
