Each of our stickers is made from high-quality vinyl. A layer of laminate is added to each sticker for extra durability. The total thickness of each sticker is 6.4mil

Die-Cut refers to the final presentation of our finished stickers. The paper backing aligns with the size and shape of the actual sticker.

Generally speaking, you can apply your stickers to any smooth and clean surface! Some examples include vehicles, watercrafts, laptops, tumblers, mugs, cell phones, and Polyurethaned wood.

With custom stickers, the possibilities are ENDLESS! Here is a list of potential uses for our stickers:

Business logo stickers, event hand-outs, promotional items, product packaging/labeling.

Wedding, birthday party, baby shower, graduation, & holiday invites and "thank-yous"

Family photos, pet photos, graduation photos

Stickers of your artwork/drawings

Our stickers are made for both indoor and outdoor use, and are expected to last 5+ years when applied properly.

1. Ensure that the smooth surface is clean. Please clean the area with water and a little dish soap. (DO NOT use any type of chemical. Chemicals may break down the adhesive).

2. Dry the surface

3. Once completely dry, peel the sticker off of the paper backing and place it on the surface. Smooth out the entire sticker with your hand (or squeegee, credit card, etc.)

Of course! The stickers will stay on a surface for many years. If you decide to remove them, simply peel the sticker off. It may stretch/tear a bit when removed. If any adhesive residue happens to get left behind it may be washed off with a little soap and water.

Our stickers are permanent (until manually removed) and a one-time use. They are not reusable.

Of course! Our stickers will hold up and last a long time through rain, snow, wind, car washes, and dishwashers.

Yes! Our stickers are oil proof.

The price of our stickers are calculated by the size and quantity you would like. The price will be shown on our product pages when you make your order selections.

Absolutely! Please send us a message with the following information and we can provide a quote for you!

-How many designs you would like printed

-Size of each design

-Quantity of each design

-Shape of each design

Ultimately, the size is up to you! However, we can give some recommendations.

Tumblers, mugs, & laptops: 3"

Cars: 4"-6"

If your design is thin, you may want to go a size larger than recommended. For example, you may want to choose 4" for your tumbler if your design is 4x1.

If your design contains text or a QR code, please select a size that will be large enough to read all of the text and scan the QR code. If you have very small text in your design, 2" may not be the best option.

If the digital file you have is very pixelated, you may want to choose one of the smaller sizes. The larger you go, the more pixelation there may be in the final print.

Overall, there is a lot to take into consideration when choosing a size for your stickers. We highly recommend measuring the space on the surface of where you would like the sticker to go.

We currently offer gloss and matte finishes!

A sticker pack must be purchased for each file/design that you have. A pack of stickers cannot be split between multiple images.

Our full sticker process can be pretty quick! Most orders take just a few days between placing the order an shipping the stickers out.

Please keep in mind that changing your full design, not approving your proof right away or requesting multiple edits to the proof can add an extra day (or a few days) to the process. The shipping service that you select at checkout will also effect how quickly the package arrives once the stickers are shipped.

If your order is time-sensitive, we recommend selecting an upgrade shipping service and keeping a close eye on your email for your proof and/or any further questions we may have for you so that we can ensure the stickers will arrive in time for your event!

Absolutely! We can always put your order "on hold" while you finish the final touches on your design.

Cancellations are accepted up until the digital proof has been approved. Once you have approved your order, the stickers have been sent to production and will be shipped.

If your order is cancelled, you can expect the refund to post back to your payment method within 1-5 business days.

Yes! Please send us your tax-exemption certificate after ordering. After we review the certificate, we will refund the tax for you.

Preferred File Types: AI, EPS, PDF, and PSD

Acceptable File Types: JPEG, TIFF, PNG, and SVG

Preferred DPI: 300 DPI (Dots Per Inch) Please send us the highest resolution file of your design that you have.

No problem! We just ask that you send the best file that you have. We can still print most files as stickers even if they are not high-resolution.

There is no need to add your own cut line! We have specific border and angle requirements for our cutting machines, so it is easier for us to add in the cut line ourselves. The cut line that we have made will be shown to you in your digital proof.

Whether a white border is needed or not is dependent on the design, file type, file resolution, etc. Our designers will not include a white border if it is not needed.

If a border is needed for proper cutting purposes, our designer will automatically make the border to the thinnest size our cutting machines can handle.

2"- 0.075 inch (1.05mm)

3" & 4"- 0.1" (2.54mm)

5" & 6"- 0.125 (3.175mm)

You may always request a white border if you would like one.

We can make simple straight-across text into stickers in the color and font of your choice. However, we do not design artwork at this time. We can print just about any file or image that you provide!

Yes we can! We make stickers of family photos, pet photos, landscape photos, etc. all the time!

Yes! Please ensure that you provide a high resolution file of your QR Code. QR Code stickers are great for promotional handouts and packaging.

If you created your design or logo in Canva, please invite us to the file and we will download the highest resolution file on our end.

Our printers do a great job of closely matching the colors provided in your digital file. However, we cannot guarantee exact color matches.

Computer and phone screens show digital artwork in the RGB color mode. In addition, each screen may have different personalized settings that affects the brightness and vibrancy of the colors. When we print, your digital file is converted from RGB mode to CMYK mode (the mode that printers use).

Due to the reasons above, there COULD be a small difference in the color shade on your file print. The difference in color is usually not noticable.

If you are concerned about matching the exact colors, please reach out to us and we can further assist on how to send your file.

I am sorry, to maximize the time our designers are working on our current orders, an order must be placed before a proof is made.

After ordering, expect your first proof to be sent to your email between 1-2 business days. Please accept or request edits as soon as you can. If we have not heard a response within 2-3 business days, your order will automatically go to production.

The red line in your digital proof shows where the cut line will be. This line is only for the proof and will not be on the finished stickers.

I am sorry, once a proof has been approved the order is sent to production. We are unable to make changes to the proof after your approval.

If you have not received your proof after a few business days (proofs are not sent on weekends), please check your email account again including the spam folder. If no proofs from us are found, please reach out to us so we can send the proof over again.

If we have not heard any type of response from you after 3 business days from sending your proof, it will be auto-accepted and go to production.

Edits and cancellations are not accepted after this point.

Every order is shipped with a tracking number so you can view where your package is at any time! The shipping carrier will show an ESTIMATED delivery date, but please note that Sticker Wave does NOT GUARANTEE that your order will arrive to you by the date given. We ask that you please have patience with the shipping carrier, and allow them the time needed to safely deliver your order.

If in the unlikely event this situation happens, we highly recommend checking around your property and with neighbors to see if your package was accidentally delivered to the wrong location. The next step would be to contact your local post office to see if they can provide details on what might have happened. If you have no luck with the first two steps, please email us at and we will be happy to help out!

If your tracking number indicates that the package has been lost in transit, or simply has not moved in several days please let us know. We will work with the shipping carrier to track down your stickers!
