Custom Stickers: Crafting Unique Messages
Are you an organization finding new ways to suit your members’ different personalities? Whether you’re a university with thousands of enrolled students, a fashion designer creating bespoke pieces for the hustling millennial, or an organic skincare provider delivering affordable luxury, custom stickers offer the freedom, space, and variety in a print marketing tool that caters to the busy and mindful individual. Find the right size, shape, and style you need to make a standout statement sticker that speaks volumes to your audience here on UPrinting.
Styles and Sizes for All the Statements You Can Think Of
Our custom sticker options come in styles and sizes that match all kinds of personalities and uses:
- Singles (formerly known as cut-to-size) stickers are single designs students or younger customers can add to their collages.
- Roll stickers fit in most label dispensers for fast and easy application on bulk items. It’s a practical choice for the restaurant or e-commerce business owner who needs to identify their items.?
- Sticker sheets are great for creating different designs in one order. Print multiple or the same design for anyone to stick on their laptops, cellphones, notebooks, or other personal canvases.
- Kiss-cut stickers are easy to peel and come with a square backing to protect the edges.
Personalize the Shape of Your Stickers
Standard sticker shapes won't call attention if your customers have more dynamic or louder personalities. Design a statement or entirely new concept to their liking based on die-cut shape options like the hexagon, heart, or starburst.?
If they’re the types who want to stand out, then you can specify the exact dimensions of your sticker under the custom shape.

Upload your logo or artwork, and we'll send you a proof to show how we will cut around it—no need to worry about the dieline. If you have yet to create the design, the Online Tool lets you edit text, add images, and preview the sticker before production. The printing time for custom shapes usually takes six (6) business days.

Custom Stickers FAQs
The best material to make your stickers depends on where and how you intend to use them.
-
The paper materials are the best choice for stickers that will only be used indoors and will not be exposed to water.
-
BOPP is more durable than the paper options. It’s often applied on consumable products that require refrigeration, such as water and beer bottles. Clear, white, and silver metallic BOPP are waterproof, oil-resistant, and tear-proof.
Measure the distance between the farthest ends of the sticker design. For roll stickers, start from the side that dispenses from the roll to measure the width.

You can request for a digital proof that you can check after you’re done uploading/creating your sticker design on our design tool. Print out the proof in its actual size and cut along the trim line to see if the sticker will fit its application location. Remember to approve the proof online to begin printing. |
Singles and roll stickers use different materials and finishes to achieve the final product. They also entail separate processes, thus the pricing between formats is different.
Matte coating appears smooth and satin-like, unlike gloss and high-gloss. This effect happens because it does not reflect light. It is recommended for those who need a rustic or subdued look for their design. Gloss coating makes the design shine, so colors appear more vibrant and stand out under low light. High-gloss UV coating has a shinier finish than gloss, and it’s also waterproof and durable enough for outdoor use.
Die-cut stickers have a backing that’s cut to the shape of your design. Kiss-cut stickers have a square backing that’s bigger and creates a border around the actual sticker design.
Nonetheless, die-cut stickers remain a great option if you want your stickers to look more professional and interesting.
With proper care, stickers can last for years. However, durability depends on the sticker material, its environment, and substances that may come in contact with it.
UPrinting stickers have a permanent adhesive backing that sticks to almost any surface. The adhesive hardens over time, giving the stickers the best adhesion the longer they are set. However, textured and curved surfaces reduce the tack from the adhesive. For best results, we recommend placing stickers on flat and smooth surfaces.
Stickers come with a paper backing that protects the adhesive. Since stickers come in different shapes and formats, it’s essential to know the best ways to peel stickers to keep them crease-free when you transfer them to your product packaging or any other surface.
- Single Stickers come with a bend-and-peel backing that makes peeling off a lot easier. This backing comes in two panels, which you need to split or bend to reveal the adhesive. Here’s a video showing how it’s done:
- Kiss-Cut Stickers unlike die-cut stickers that are trimmed to the exact shape, kiss cuts sit on a large paper backing. To peel off, look for the border and flick up the edge of the sticker with your nail and finger. Gently lift the sticker and move to another corner to avoid creasing.
- Sticker Sheets come with a full-sized backing. This format requires you to remove the stickers one by one. Look for the outline around the piece of sticker you want to remove. Gently lift the sticker from one corner slowly until you’re able to lift the whole piece off. Smaller stickers can usually be peeled off in one swoop.
- Roll Stickers are perhaps the easiest to peel off from the backing. Simply look for an edge that you can easily lift off and work your way around just as you would with a kiss-cut or die-cut sticker.
The following requests require customers to coordinate with the custom team:
- Sizes bigger or smaller than what’s offered on our website.
- A detailed shape with many sharp points, strips narrower than 0.5”, deep curves or cuts, and other intricate details.
When you order custom stickers online, we can bundle your order for delivery. To request this, use our online calculator. Find the “Bundling” button and select “Shrink Wrapping.” This ensures your stickers are organized and protected during shipment at a meager cost.
The printing time depends on the sticker type:
- Single stickers take between 1 to 3 business days.
- Roll stickers require more time at 2, 4, or 6 business days.
- Sheets and kiss-cut stickers take 6 business days to print.
No, but you can get an estimate of the delivery date. The printing time indicates the number of business days to produce your order. Click “Estimate Shipping Cost and Delivery Date” in the online calculator to select your preferred delivery date.
Yes, it’s possible to print your stickers in separate rolls. If you’d like to take this option and know more about the additional charges, please contact our Customer Service team at (888) 888-4211.?
Most sticker materials come with a permanent adhesive. If you need a removable sticker, print your design in the removable white BOPP material.
Stickers don’t usually leave residue when removed from unwashed fabric. To remove the adhesive, peel the sticker's edges and roll it into balls. This allows you to get as much adhesive off without using any tools or liquid solvents.
