  3. Ship overnight NZ-wide

    The homepage banner states overnight NZ-wide shipping alongside Afterpay availability.

What problem does a DTF transfer and gang-sheet store have to solve?

A DTF (direct-to-film) transfer business sells by the film sheet, not by the printed garment, so its pricing and ordering logic have to resolve how many separate designs a buyer can fit onto one gang sheet before a size is chosen — the opposite problem from a per-garment print shop, where quantity drives the price. A gang-sheet builder that lets a buyer place designs onto one sheet, or upload one already laid out, is the storefront answer to that production constraint.

The second constraint is reach across a no-minimum, bulk-discount catalogue: a single-shirt buyer and a school ordering for a whole kura need the same storefront to serve both without one group subsidising friction for the other.

What did Netbase JSC deliver?

Netbase JSC's project records for printees.co.nz show one dated item:

  • 2022 Q3-Q4. Release 1.0.0 (1 milestone, completed, opened 2022-09-27, closed 2022-11-14).

No task is recorded against this project in the index reviewed for this page, and no further dated milestone appears after the 2022 release.

What does a buyer see on the store today?

A visit to printees.co.nz on 2026-11-07 found:

  • A homepage headline "Print it. Press it. Wear it proud.," with "Design Your Merch" and "Order Transfers" as the two primary buttons.
  • A scrolling banner stating bulk discounts, Afterpay available, Māori-owned business, DTF & UV DTF transfers, no minimums, printed here in Aotearoa, and overnight NZ-wide shipping.
  • A dedicated gang-sheet guide page: "Fill one sheet. Print the lot," explaining that a buyer pays for the sheet, not for each design, and can build one online, upload one, or follow guided steps.
  • A main navigation of Custom Merch, DTF Transfers, Our Store and Quote.

What does this record show, and what does it not?

It shows a Māori-owned New Zealand DTF transfer and custom merch store, with a single dated release recorded in late 2022.

It does not show order volume, conversion or any revenue figure; none is measured to a published method and none is claimed. It does not show which parts of today's gang-sheet builder and merch-design tool date from the 2022 release versus later, undated work; the project index reviewed for this page records no task after that release. Web2Print Solutions is the web-to-print engineering service of Netbase JSC. Delivery records cited on this site belong to Netbase JSC; where no delivered example of a capability is published, the page says so rather than implying a record.

Key takeaways

  • Printees is a Māori-owned New Zealand store selling custom merch, DTF transfers and UV DTF stickers, checked live on 2026-11-07.
  • Netbase JSC's records show a single completed release, Release 1.0.0, dated September to November 2022, with no further dated task since.
  • The store's gang-sheet builder charges per sheet rather than per design, and pairs bulk discounts with Afterpay and no minimum order size.
  • No order volume, conversion or revenue result is claimed for the store.

How could a similar project start?

If you run a DTF transfer or gang-sheet business and want your storefront pricing to match how you actually produce, send a project brief describing your sheet sizes, your current gang-sheet process and where buyers get stuck between single-item and bulk orders. Apparel-decoration print-area mechanics are covered on the t-shirt and apparel designer page and apparel and promotional print; general option-rule and gang-sheet-style configurator work sits under print product configurator. New Zealand storefront requirements are on web-to-print for New Zealand print businesses, and a related apparel-decoration record in a different country is the MyTeeMyPrint case study in Malaysia; every case study is indexed on the evidence hub.

Insight and lessons from this project

Position of the CEO, Netbase JSC, from the project record and the live store on 2026-11-07.

  • A single recorded release, Release 1.0.0 in late 2022, with no further dated task since, is a thin project record next to a store that is visibly still trading; this page states that gap rather than inferring ongoing work that is not in the index.
  • A gang-sheet builder that charges by the sheet rather than per design is a pricing structure built around production economics (how much film fits one press run), not a per-item catalogue price, and it is a pattern worth naming for any DTF-based print shop.
  • No-minimum, bulk-discount pricing paired with a buy-now-pay-later option (Afterpay) targets both single-shirt buyers and larger group orders (a sports team or a kura) from the same storefront.
