A Print-on-Demand Marketplace is a marketplace model where products are created and printed only after an order is placed. This eliminates the need for inventory and allows sellers to offer customizable products.

Using the Marketplace app, marketplace owners can build a multivendor print-on-demand marketplace where sellers offer printed products such as apparel, accessories, and merchandise.
