Marketplace
NowToPrint Marketplace connects print buyers with verified print shops through a transparent RFQ (Request for Quote) system — think of it as a spot market for print.
How It Works
Why Use the Marketplace?
Instead of calling three print shops and waiting three days for a price, the Marketplace brings verified suppliers to you.
Spot Market Logic
Print shops with idle machine capacity offer lower prices to keep presses running. You benefit from real-time competition — average savings of 20–30% versus market rates.
Guides
Buyer Strategy: Getting the Best Price
1. Specification Quality
Vague requests attract risk premiums. Precise specs eliminate uncertainty and lower prices.
"I need 1,000 flyers" → higher price
"A4, 150 gsm coated, gloss lamination, folded, 1,000 units" → lower, accurate price
2. Lead Time
Rush orders attract a premium. Give suppliers 5+ days and they can schedule your job during available capacity — saving up to 30%.
3. Volume
Print setup cost is fixed. The more units you order, the lower the unit price.
