Custom Sticker-Printing Makes Your Brand Stick
Custom sticker printing is a go-to marketing strategy for good reason. Stickers add personality to product packaging or make great giveaways that cultivate brand impressions. Anyone impressed with the sticker design will place your organization’s custom sticker on their laptop or notebook cover. Printing custom stickers for your business is an eye-catching way to spread your message and boost brand visibility. With all the different shapes, sizes, and materials available, what type of stickers would best suit your business?
What’s the Difference Between a Sticker and a Label?
On the surface, stickers and labels look very much alike.
The difference between the two lies in how you’re going to use them:
- Stickers are mostly used for branding or to promote a cause. They can also be used in packaging but mostly as add-ons. Like labels, stickers also come in rolls, but if they are going to be handed to customers or included in a package, the cut-to-size format is more ideal.
- Labels are often used to identify a brand or product. They are usually applied to product packaging to provide information or to make branding more memorable. Custom labels are available cut-to-size and in rolls.
Order Custom Stickers
Our custom sticker printing options come in styles and sizes that suit many purposes:
- Cut-to-size (or individually cut) stickers are perfect for handing out at small events or in your store.
- Roll stickers fit in most label dispensers for fast and easy application on bulk items.
- Sticker sheets are great for creating different designs in one order.
- Kiss-cut stickers are easy to peel and can be printed in any shape that you want.
How to Peel Off Stickers
Stickers come with paper backing that protects the adhesive from air exposure. Since stickers come in different shapes and format, it’s essential to know the best ways on removing stickers so that they remain crease-free when you transfer them to your product packaging or any other surface.
Cut-to-Size Stickers
Cut-to-size stickers come with a bend-and-peel backing that helps 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 an 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 if needed to avoid creasing.
Sticker Sheets
Sticker sheets come with a full-sized backing. You need to remove the stickers one-by-one, so you will be left with the sheet itself once you’re done peeling off the stickers. Look for the outline around the piece of sticker you want to remove. Gently lift the sticker from one corner and move around until you’re able to lift the whole thing off. Smaller stickers can be removed in one swoop.
Roll Stickers
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.
Customize the Shape of Your Stickers
Custom-shaped stickers are available in several die-cut shape options including Square/Rectangle, Circle, Oval, Arch, Hexagon, Heart, and Starburst.
You can also opt for a custom shape. Upload your logo or artwork and we'll provide you a proof to show how we will cut around it. No need to worry about the dieline! The printing time for custom shapes usually takes 6 business days.
Our custom stickers are affordable, precisely cut, and made from high-quality materials.

- 70 lb. Label High Gloss – use a permanent marker for best results

There are also premium sticker materials you can scribble on. However, you can only write on these with the uncoated option:
- White Vellum Textured Estate #8

You can also use the handy table above to see which sticker materials are best for writing on.
How Long Do Stickers Last?
When stored properly and at the right temperature, most stickers can last for 1-2 years without being used. Vinyl stickers, on the other hand, can last up to 5 years.
UPrinting stickers come with 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. We recommend placing stickers on flat and smooth surfaces for the best results.

Custom Stickers FAQs
Matte coating appears smooth and satin-like, unlike gloss and high-gloss. This effect happens because it does not glare or reflect light. It is recommended for those who need a rustic or subdued look for their design. Gloss coating makes the design shine, and as a result, 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.
If you order stickers made from BOPP, they will be more durable than paper. Paper is the best choice to print custom sticker rolls that will only be used indoors and will have no exposure to water. BOPP has a similar appearance, but the strong material is often applied on consumable products that require refrigeration, such as water and beer bottles. Clear, white, and silver metallic BOPP are all waterproof, oil-resistant, and tear-proof. The best material to make your stickers depends on where and how you intend to use them.

Yes, it’s possible to print your stickers in separate rolls. To use this option and know about the additional charges, please contact our Customer Service team at (888) 888-4211.
Rolls can be more expensive than single stickers. However, they save you time when you need to seal packages quickly or add them to packaging. Since roll stickers can be applied by machine, the process is more efficient. You also don’t need to find the edge to peel off or pick them up from a stack as you would with individually cut stickers.
Stickers don’t usually leave a residue on unwashed fabric. To remove the adhesive, peel the edges of the sticker and roll it into balls. This allows you to get as much adhesive off without using any tool or cleaner.
