How and when do I get paid?
Funds are transferred every 2 weeks to your bank or PayPal accounts.
What is Print-On-Demand (PoD)?
With APEX, Made in Akron prints (on demand) subscriber branded apparel and merchandise after an order is placed on the MIA Marketplace or the 'BUY NOW' store on their website.
This eliminates the need for a small business to tie up valuable capital in finished swag - and allows Customers to select their ideal color, style and size.
If you already have finished swag and but no online store, we can store your inventory and fulfill orders through our 'BUY NOW' store service.
