Sticker Mule is a crowd favorite. If you’re into sticker printing, you have most likely already heard about it. As a matter of fact, we are amazed if you have not heard about them before. For a long time, they gave out $500 every time they tweeted as a marketing stunt. Heck, they just released their own social media platform.

The minimum order quantity on Sticker Mule is 10 units in a 3-inch size. You can find them in their Samples section. Interestingly, they do not do gloss laminate stickers, only matte laminated stickers; however, in this section, you can order samples of most of their products, including holographic stickers, clear stickers, and magnets, among others.

We paid a total of $9.72 after tax, setting the unit price to $1.03. It is important to mention that they offer free domestic shipping on all orders.

Sticker Mule provides proofs fast, and when we say fast, we mean FAST. We sent the file at 10:22 pm and received the proof at 11:38 p.m.—less than an hour. As a matter of fact, there have been times we received the proof in less than 20 minutes. They also provide the option to skip proofing if your file is high resolution or if you have an account and want to place a re-order. It is important to note that this was late at night, and they were still able to provide a design proof.

The artwork we provided was not exactly 3x3 inches. The production artist adjusted it to 3 x 2.98”.

The next morning, we asked for a simple change. We asked them to make the outline smaller. This time, they took 37 minutes to return the second proof. These guys promise all proofs under four, so we assume that they’re working 24/7.

Thirteen business days later, we received a small branded bubble mailer with our stickers in it. Inside the package, we found 3 branded stickers, 1 insert for the social media platform we mentioned before, and our custom stickers sealed in a clear plastic bag. Instead of the 10 stickers we ordered, we received 12 units. From experience, we can say that receiving extras is something that is usual with most sticker printers. After inspecting the stickers, we found out that they had no factory defects.
