Order management and fulfillment for our print-on-demand shops

Mintation is the tool our team uses to run the Etsy shops we own. It syncs our orders, sends them to our production partners for printing and shipping, and updates tracking numbers back to Etsy. Listings and sales reports live in the same dashboard.

Internal use only: Mintation works with the Etsy shops our company owns, connected through Etsy sign-in (OAuth).

How it works

From a sale on Etsy to a parcel at the buyer's door, without copying orders by hand.

  1. Connect a shop

    A team member signs in with Etsy and approves the permissions Mintation needs for one of our shops. Access can be revoked at any time.

  2. Orders sync

    New paid orders and their items are pulled from the shop into one order queue.

  3. Print and ship

    Each order goes to a production partner who prints, packs and ships it to the buyer.

  4. Tracking back to Etsy

    When the parcel ships, its tracking number is added to the Etsy order, so Etsy notifies the buyer.

Everything after the sale, in one place

Mintation handles the work between an order and a delivered parcel, and keeps our listings up to date.

Order sync

Orders from each connected Etsy shop land in one queue with their items, options and shipping method.

Fulfillment routing

Send each order to the right production partner and follow it from printing to hand-off to the carrier.

Tracking updates

Tracking numbers go back to the Etsy order as soon as a parcel ships. No copy and paste.

Listing management

Prepare titles, descriptions and mockups, review them, then publish new listings or update existing ones.

Sales reports

Revenue, production cost and margin per shop and per product, in one dashboard.

Issue handling

Track reprints and refunds against the order they belong to, with the full fulfillment history.

How Mintation uses Etsy data

We ask only for the permissions the workflow needs, and use them only for the shops we own.
