I want to start this Gearbubble review by saying that Gearbubble is definitely one of the most interesting print on demand companies I’ve discovered lately. A lot of print on demand companies (like Printful, Printify, and Gelato), are pretty similar.
They all have their unique selling points – for instance Gelato is great for sustainable companies in search of quick fulfillment times, and Printify has some amazing AI-powered design tools. But most companies give merchants access to variations of similar products.
Gearbubble is different – it’s one of the only print on demand companies to specialize in “precious metal jewelry” – it’s even backed by Bergio International – one of the most reputable fine jewelry brands in the world.
So, is Gearbubble a good option for your POD brand?
I put the platform to the test to find out.
Quick Verdict, Pros and Cons:
Overall, Gearbubble is an impressive print on demand company. It has a great reputation for high-quality product production, (particularly in the jewelry niche), and it’s one of the few companies to offer direct-to-Amazon FBA services to merchants – so you can ship products through Amazon.
However, there are some downsides to this platform too.
It only offers a handful of integration options for sales channels, and the design tools are pretty simplistic. Plus, if you’re not interested in selling jewelry, the custom product collection is limited.
Pros:
- Fantastic selection of high-quality jewelry products Easy-to-use platform with simple integrations
- Excellent premium plan with bonus resources
- Fast shipping throughout the USA
- Custom branding options and design support
- Pre-built landing pages for beginners
Cons:
- Fewer integrations than some alternatives
- Slightly limited collection of products
- Design tools are relatively basic
Overview and Core Features

Gearbubble might not be as well-known as some of the other print on demand solutions I’ve reviewed – but it’s been gaining traction quickly in the last few years.
Unlike most Print on Demand companies, Gearbubble specializes in the “fine jewelry” niche.
It partners directly with expert jewelers to create custom .925 sterling silver, and gold pieces for its merchants.
Gearbubble has actually been making waves in the POD space for longer than some people realize. It was one of the first platforms to offer customizable mugs to merchants, and it was also one of the first to support marketplace integrations with Etsy, Amazon, and Shopify.
Here’s a closer look at everything you can access when you start selling with Gearbubble.
Gearbubble Product Options and Customization
I mentioned above that one of the downsides of Gearbubble is that it doesn’t offer quite as many product options as some alternatives. However, the available products are pretty impressive.
Let’s start with the jewlery options – Gearbubble’s specialty.
With this platform you can create custom silver, gold, and precious metal necklaces, bracelets, earrings and pendants. There are options for vegan leather bracelets, dog tag jewelry, and various other options too.
I’ve struggled to find another vendor that offers similar variety when it comes to high-quality jewelry. You can even connect directly with jewelry designers to make custom requests.
Outside of jewlery, the options are a bit more basic. You’ll get all of the standard apparel options, like t-shirts, hoodies, tank tops, and sweaters – but there aren’t many customization options to choose from.
I couldn’t find embroidery or all-over-print for customization, for instance.
There are a handful of accessories available too, such as leather engraved belts, mugs and drinkware products (mentioned above), and home décor items, like candles, pillowcases and posters.
The design tools you’ll use to create your products are straightforward enough, but I’ve definitely seen better.
For instance, on Printify, you get an AI image generator, as well as access to countless free resources, like graphics and fonts.
On the plus side, you can access professionally created designs through Gearbubble Platinum (the premium plan).
Product Quality and Profitability
Though the variety might be a little lacking on Gearbubble, the product quality seems to be phenomenal.
Although Gearbubble has earned some negative reviews for variable product quality on certain items (like t-shirts), it’s worth remembering that the quality of your image file and other factors can influence product quality too.
If you’re investing in jewelry with Gearbubble, you can rest assured that you’ll always get excellent results. That makes sense considering that the company is backed by the Bergio brand.
Another great thing about Gearbubble is how easy it makes it to enhance your profit margins.
First of all, you get genuine, premium-quality jewelry, which means you can typically sell your products for a higher price.
Secondly, Gearbubble automatically calculates profit margins for you as you design your products, so you know exactly what pricing strategy to use.
If you’re a Gearbubble Platinum subscriber, you also get a bunch of resources to help you increase sales, like access to “Spying” tools that help you find trending products, and specialist training.
Sales Channels, Integrations, and Fulfillment
When it comes to the actual channels you can sell through on Gearbubble, your options are a bit limited.
You can use the company’s pre-built “high-converting” landing pages to sell your items, which basically means you can create a page on the Gearbubble website you can use for selling.
Alternatively, you can link the platform directly with your Shopify store. Outside of that, the best ways to sell through Gearbubble are through Etsy, Ebay, and Amazon.

For those interested in marketplace selling, I definitely recommend taking advantage of the Amazon integration.
Not only does Gearbubble allow you to sell products directly through Amazon, but it offers direct support for Amazon FBA services – so you can take advantage of Amazon’s extensive delivery network, and even cut the costs of shipping.
Through Amazon FBA (and other partnerships), Gearbubble does offer global fulfillment, but it prioritizes USA shipping – from what I can see.
The company promises rapid shipping throughout the United States – some products are even ready to ship within 48 hours. I couldn’t find a lot of information about international shipping speeds or costs, however.
Ease of Use and Customer Support
I’ve reviewed dozens of print on demand platforms and tools over the years, and I’ve yet to find a solution that’s not tailored to beginners.
Gearbubble is no different. It’s a very straightforward platform that guides you through the process of setting up your account, creating and customizing products, managing integrations, and fulfilling orders.
I did find the fact that you have to set up a “campaign” with three custom products before you can start actually selling products a little frustrating – but it really doesn’t take much time to get everything configured.
You even get some handy resources throughout the process, like suggested descriptions for your products.
If you’re selling through Gearbubble directly, you need to choose a “length” for your campaign – which is a little unusual. However, you can list products on other marketplaces and your ecommerce store for as long as you like.
If you need support at any point, Gearbubble offers a few simple resources, like guides and an FAQ page – but there aren’t a lot of in-depth self-help solutions to choose from.
On the plus side, you can contact the customer service team at any time via email, chat (or through social media). However, Gearbubble notes that their teams aren’t available for 24/7 assistance.
Gearbubble Plans and Pricing

Anyone can create an account and start selling products with Gearbubble for free. If you take this route, you only need to pay for the base cost of the products you’re going to be selling – which you’ll see presented to you as you design each item.
However, Gearbubble also offers a premium plan – and it’s one of the most expensive I’ve seen in the print on demand niche, at $197 per month.
Notably, this premium plan does come with a lot of perks. If you sign up for “Platinum”, you get:
- Access to all of Gearbubble’s leading training products, such as step-by-step guides on how to increase sales, identify your target audience, design items, and create marketing campaigns.
- Spying tools, such as the Etsy Spyr and Amazon Spyr tools, which help sellers instantly identify top-selling products in their specific niche (with exclusive data).
- Batch send integration, so you can push up to 50 new products at a time to your Amazon, eBay, Shopify, and Etsy stores with a single click.
- 10 professionally created designs for your brand each month – produced based on your specific requests and Spyr tool insights. Exclusive access to new jewelry pieces and products, as well as exclusive contest access, so you can win amazing prizes.
Notably, the Platinum plan is also the only way to access Gearbubble’s integrations with Amazon, Etsy, Ebay, and Shopify.
If you’re on a free plan, you have to place orders manually, and sell primarily through the Gearbubble website.
Gearbubble Review: The Verdict
So, is Gearbubble right for your business? That all depends on your goals. If you’re looking for an easy way to create and sell high-quality jewelry products online, Gearbubble is a great pick.
It’s also fantastic for companies who want to take advantage of the Amazon marketplace, and Amazon FBA.
However, it does lack a few of the advanced features and tools offered by other platforms, like Printify or Printful. You won’t get as many product options on Gearbubble, and the design tools are pretty basic.
Plus, Gearbubble’s premium plan (which unlocks most of the unique benefits offered by the platform) is very expensive.
Still, for merchants in the jewelry niche, it’s hard to find a company that offers the same combination of benefits – so it’s definitely still worth giving Gearbubble a shot.
