Do you offer bulk discounts?

Yes — Bolt Printing offers automatic quantity discounts when you order more of the same item with the same design. But there are some important rules that determine when a bulk discount applies.


When bulk discounts apply:

  • You're ordering a large quantity of the same style with the same design.
  • The items are in the same product category (e.g., all t-shirts).
  • The shirt colors are in the same color family (like black, navy, and red).
  • You order at least 12 per color.

🛒 Good news: You can easily mix colors in the cart — just select “add another color” and keep the design the same.


Important pricing factors:

  • For screen printing, cost depends on:
    • Shirt style
    • Shirt color
    • Number of print locations (e.g., front + back)
    • Number of print colors per location
    • Quantity ordered
  • For embroidery, cost depends on:
    • Item style
    • Number of embroidery locations
    • Stitch count (we include up to 8,000 stitches)
    • Quantity ordered

Examples where discounts apply:

  • Ordering BD54 t-shirts in black, red, green, and royal blue
  • Using white ink, printed front and back
  • At least 12 of each color
    This qualifies for a bulk discount!

Examples where discounts won’t apply:

  • BD54 shirts in black and white, even with the same design
    → ❌ White is not in the same color family as black.
  • Embroidered beanies and embroidered trucker hats, even in the same color
    → ❌ These are different product styles/categories.
  • BD54 t-shirts and embroidered polos, even with the same logo
    → ❌ Screen print and embroidery are priced separately and don’t combine for bulk discounts.
