How Does It Work?

First time ordering or need a refresher? Here’s a quick walkthrough of what to expect. We also answer some FAQs below!

Every order comes with free digital proofs (mockups that show you how your items will look). You get to make as many changes as you want, and nothing goes to printing until you give us the thumbs up!

Your affordable swag will be at your door faster than you can say “whoa!” If your order doesn’t arrive on or before the guaranteed delivery date, you get your money back.

We're here to offer the best! If someone has a lower price, let us know. We'll not only match what they offer, but also refund 110% of the difference for any purchases made in the last 30 days.

Your items will arrive when you want them, exactly as you want them. We'll either replace or refund your logo if it's wrong, so snap some pictures and send them our way. You can also leave a review!

Robots are cool, but you don't want to talk to one when ordering custom pens. Luckily, we have a team of cool people, and you'll work with the same one from the start to the end of your order.

How to Choose a Font for Promo Pens

How to Choose a Font for Promo Pens

The space where we add your design on your pens is typically only around 2” W x 0.5” H. Choosing the right font is key to getting the most readable result. We have a blog post about this, which you can read here. The short version: Make sure the letters are spaced out (not squished together), and avoid fancy cursive flourishes and big serifs.
Check each product page to see that specific pen’s maximum imprint size.

How We Customize Your Pens

The three main customization techniques we use for pens are:

  1. Screen or pad print in one color
  2. Full color print on a decal
  3. Laser engraving (only on certain metal pens)

How Long Do These
Pens Write For?

We used our specially made pen-testing machine to find out how long each pen writes for in miles. It varies per pen, but the average distance was 0.61 miles – that’s 9.4 times the length of a professional soccer pitch!

Think Ink

Learn the differences between the three most common ink types.

Ballpoint

Ballpoint ink is made of dye suspended in an oil and solvent paste. It’s formulated to be smudge-proof.

Rollerball

Rollerball ink is made up of dyes dissolved in water, which is why it flows so nicely as you write.

Gel

Gel ink uses pigments instead of dyes – which create more saturated colors – suspended in a water-based gel.

Pen Brands

Some people want to be the only logo on their promo pens – and some want to see their name next to the best brands in the business. If you’re a proud stationery snob, we appreciate your discerning taste and we cater to it. You can add your design to pens by the likes of BIC, Parker, Paper Mate, Pilot, Sharpie, uniball, Zebra, Waterman, and Mont Blanc.

Pen FAQs

What are your pens made of?

Most of our pens are made from plastic. We find this to be a very convenient material for promo pens, since it’s both durable and lightweight, and easy to customize. If you’re looking for pens made of a specific material, you can use our handy filters on the left side of the pens category page above, or using the Filter button at the top of your screen on mobile or tablet.

Do I have to place a bulk order?

We don’t sell individual pens, so you will have to place a bulk order. The minimum order value varies by pen – you can see it on each product page. The more you order, the more you save!

Can I try a free sample?

Some pens come with the option to order a free sample, worth up to $7.00 based on the minimum order price – the highest price we charge for that product. You can also order samples of the same pen in multiple colors for free, as long as the total is $7.00 or less. To find out if your pen is eligible, go to its product page and look under the blue Add to Cart option for a link that says Order a Sample.

What is a setup fee?

The setup fee covers the materials needed to create your customization (e.g. screens for screen printing) and the cost of running the machines that add your custom design onto the products. Any setup fees will be clearly listed on your order form.

How is shipping calculated?

We calculate shipping based on the box's weight and dimensions; your location; and your shipping speed. You’ll see the shipping price when you check out, so there won’t be any surprises.

Can I choose the ink color?

Some pens come with different ink color options. For example, you might be able to choose black or blue ink, or an ink color that matches the barrel or lid. You’ll be able to see your options listed on the product page, and also when you make selections in your cart.
