FAQs

How am I billed?

We send you a monthly statement for all credits, discounts, and budgets that have been redeemed and shipped during the month. In other words, you don’t pay for the outstanding credits you’ve given out until they are redeemed. The single monthly statement is much easier for your finance team to reconcile than many individual orders.

How much will I be charged for the profit I make?

Items that are marked up to be sold for profit or other fundraising type activities are subject to a 5% convenience fee on the profit. For example, if an item that costs $15 is sold for $20, 5% of the $5 difference ($0.25) would be removed from your weekly sales.

Additionally, any item on the store that is not produced by AXOMO will be subject to the 5% convenience fee. For example, if you were to list a TV on your store for $250, 5% of that $250 ($12.50) would be removed from your weekly sales.

How do I collect sales tax?

You may elect to pass this cost on to your end-user and it will show on the order as a convenience fee. AXOMO has the ability to collect sales tax and offers simple reporting that shows how much tax has been collected per state for a given time period.

You may also set your own sales tax rules and remit payment to the appropriate state(s) with AXOMO set up as the merchant of record. We recommend that you consult your tax expert to verify that you have set up proper taxation to meet your organization’s needs.

Does AXOMO let me connect to other platforms via API?

Yes, our API library grows more each day and we are happy to work with your team to get you access to the data you need. We currently integrate with HR and employee rewards platforms like Bamboo HR, Microsoft Azure AD, Paylocity, NectarHR, Bonusly, and more.

Can I setup a point system rather than displaying things in dollars?

AXOMO allows you to set up and name your own custom point system as well as the conversion rate to dollars. Your monthly statement will still be billed in dollars and reports can be viewed in both dollars or points, but your users will only see points!

Can users buy more points/store credit?

You are able to allow your users to buy more points with a credit card at whatever exchange rate you desire, but this may cause some confusion with your end-user. You can opt to disable the use of credit cards to purchase points/store credit if this happens.

What if a user runs out of credit?

If a user doesn’t have enough credit to purchase an item, you can enable a feature to let them use their own personal credit card to cover the difference. In fact, you’ll be amazed at how many individuals will choose to do this!

What is a vector logo?

A vector logo is a type of artwork that has been designed using design software such as Adobe Illustrator or Corel. The file type will generally be an AI, EPS, or PDF file.

Why do I need a vector logo?

Vector files are able to be scaled to any resolution and also communicate important info such as how to cut out the logo for heat transfer or how to separate the colors for screen printing and maintain the highest quality of the print. High-resolution raster images (png, jpg, gif, BMP) will work for some production methods but not all.

What is “Logo Digitizing?”

When you add a new logo to your logo manager, to use this logo on embroidered items it will need to go through a special digitizing process to configure the stitching. This process must be repeated each time you create a product with a new size or add a new type of product (bag, hat, shirt).

What is a digitizing fee?

In order to embroider your logo onto an item, it first must be “digitized”. Digitizing is a special process in which we take your logo and specify how the embroidery machines will layout and stitch the various thread colors.

This process must be repeated any time the logo is resized or the number of colors changes. Due to the manual time, it takes to digitize a logo there is a one-time digitizing fee each time a logo is digitized.

We include three free digitized logos as part of the AXOMO setup fee and each additional logo that is digitized will be billed on your monthly statement.

Why do I have to select colors when I upload a logo?

When you upload a logo, we map the colors to Pantone colors that we will use to print your logo. Generally speaking the more colors in your logo the more expensive it will be to produce an item, so we recommend selecting as few colors as possible that maintain your style guide

How do I choose the best decoration method for the item I’m designing?

That’s a great question! We recommend to all new clients to order samples of various items, so you can touch and feel the difference in each decoration method. If you’re worried if you have picked the right method, a great rule of thumb is to go with the default option that is given on each item.

What is the difference between screen printing and “direct to film” printing?

The best way to explain the difference between these two decoration methods is to think of painting vs printing. Screen printing is similar to painting a logo or image onto an item. This process works great if you have large quantities of an item that you would like to mass-produce at a lower cost.

Direct to Film is similar to printing an image directly onto a vinyl film that is then heat transferred to the item. This process looks great and allows you to do on-demand items at a much lower cost.

How can I make sure my logo will be centered, left-aligned, right-aligned, etc. while I’m designing an item?

When creating an item there is a box named “Logo Position.” In the dropdown of that box, there will option to move the logo to Left Chest, Right Chest, and Custom.

Do you have more products than what is listed on your online catalog?

Yes, we have thousands of items to choose from! Reach out to your store representative or contact us to learn about our other item options, or feel free to use our item request feature and we’ll add it within 7 business days.

Will I be notified when my product request is completed?

Yes, an email notification will be sent to your inbox so you can immediately add the item to your store once it’s completed.
