What is FourthWall?

Fourthwall is a shop builder, originally designated for content creators, that allows you to sell things such as Print on Demand items, Digital files (PDF, JPEG, Audio, etc.), items you ship on your own (handmade or not), as well as memberships (kinda like Patreon).

Using Fourthwall to set up a shop is FREE, and you can either use their subdomain, or pay to a domain & hosting provider for a domain- and connect it to Fourthwall. This builder might be more limited then other platforms (Shopify, WooCommerce or even Hostinger Builder), but it might be PERFECT for you if it includes the main features you need for your shop!

What is Print on Demand?

Print on Demand is a great business model for creatives looking to sell products such as Tshirts, Hoodies, Mugs, Stickers, Bags, Notebooks & more- but don't want to deal with paying out of pocket for stock- or shipping items yourself.
In this model of design & production - you partner with a supplier, design the items to your liking, and you get a mockup (a simulation) of what that product looks like.
Once a buyer places an order- the supplier manufactures the item and ships it to the client.

Selling Print on Demand on Fourthwall:

If you want to sell Print on Demand items on Fourthwall, here are some things you need to know:

1. The Print on Demand items on Fourthwall are made by 3rd party suppliers (mainly Printful, but they have other suppliers as well) and in each product page you will be able to see the name of the provider, as well as where the item will be shipped from.

2. Unlike selling Print on Demand on shop builders like Shopify, or even on Etsy, you do NOT design the items from the supplier's platform and then export them to your shop. With Fourthwall you create the products directly on Fourthwall.

3. When you create a Print on Demand item on Fourthwall you'll see the cost to fulfill this item as well as a place to price the item to potential buyers. This will also calculate how much you're set to make from a sale of such item (minus payment processing fees).

4. For Print on Demand items- Fourthwall handles the customer support FOR YOU. Meaning: if a client wants to ask questions on an item yet to arrive, or has issues with a product that did arrive- they will contact Fourthwall, who will in turn contact the print provider on their own.

5. Buyer pays Fourthwall- you get your commission once a month!

6. Embroidered Products from Printful do NOT have digitization fees!

Selling Digital Downlods on Fourthwall:

You can use the Fourthwall shop builder to start a digital downloads shop, or simply add digital items to other products you're selling.
These products can be basically ANY digital file:
- PDF files- mostly known as Printables, that the buyer buys and later prints at home or in a print shop.
- JPG/PNG files (such as artwork, clipart, patterns, etc)
- Templates (for Canva, for Cricut, for 3D printing...)
- Audio or Video files (such as registered music, or meditations)
- "Tools" such as Procreate brushes,
and any other digital file you can think of!
I made a full video on this process of selling digital files over on Fourthwall, and you can watch it HERE.

Note: Digital Files priced at $0 will be FREEBIES:)

Memberships on Fourthwall:

Fourthwall allows you to set up memberships directly on your shop, instead of adding a Patreon account, or managing memberships with Youtube.
You can create multiple membership tiers, and create posts that are videos, audio or text- and specify which tier will have access to each post.
