Trade Print, Exclusively for Businesses

Frequently Asked Questions

Ordering & Production

Once your trade account is live it works like any online shop: pick the product, set your specs (stock, size, finishing, quantity, delivery speed), add to basket, check out, then upload your artwork. All shipping is white label.

Visa, Visa Debit, MasterCard, Maestro, Amex and PayPal. Your account manager may also be able to arrange alternatives such as a credit account.

Express orders: artwork approval by 5:00pm. Standard turnarounds: artwork approval by 6:30pm.

Specs can be changed by phone before approval, and payment can be taken over the phone too. After approval it depends on whether printing has already begun.

Take a screenshot of the error, email it to sales@freshnfunky.co.uk, then call us so we can investigate.

In your account area go to My Account → Quotes. Anything listed as an active quote can be reviewed and accepted there.

VAT depends on what is printed and how it will be used, not just the product category. Many items such as leaflets and brochures are zero-rated, but certain artwork features can change that.

Most sizes and quantities are priced on the site, including the custom size/quantity option. For anything outside that, contact us for a quote.

30 days from the date the quote is issued.

No — machine allocation is decided by our production process.

Before production starts, use Re-upload in your account dashboard to submit a corrected file and re-approve it. Once the status shows In Production the options are more limited.

Go to My Account → My Orders. We also send email updates at key stages.

Yes — choose the Express option where available for next-working-day delivery. Standard DPD delivery runs 8:00am–7:00pm.

Express means printed and delivered the next working day if artwork is approved before 5pm. A 1 working day turnaround means the job is produced and ready for delivery after one full working day from artwork approval.

Delivery & Shipping

Track it under My Account → My Orders. Email updates are also sent as your order progresses.

Mainly DPD and APC. Specific DPD services can be chosen at checkout, and items over 1.2 metres have some restrictions.

No delivery to Jersey, Guernsey, the Republic of Ireland or anywhere outside the UK. Some UK areas add an extra working day.

Yes, up until dispatch — either through the account area or by email.

Standard DPD delivery (8:00am–7:00pm) is free. Pre-noon delivery (8:00am–12:00pm) costs £7.50 inc. VAT. Faster turnaround upgrades are also available.

Yes — the Split Delivery feature covers up to 15 addresses per order. The first address is free and each extra address is £9.00 inc. VAT.

No. We deliver to the UK only, including the Isle of Man, Northern Ireland and selected Scottish Highlands & Islands areas — but not Jersey, Guernsey or the Republic of Ireland.
