## Key features

- **Visual product customizer:** Shoppers add text, upload images and see a printing preview; the store gets print-ready files and can set design and pricing rules.
- **3D product configurator:** Sell made-to-order products with customizable components and colors shown in 3D, with pricing rules and conditional options.
- **3D asset manager and AR viewer:** Store 3D models and embed 3D and AR viewers; pro features such as GIF and video generation cost $29.90 a month extra.
- **Virtual try-on:** Customers try products on virtually, sharing the experience by QR code, link or iframe with no app needed.

## Good for

- Stores selling personalized or engraved products that need print-ready files
- Brands that want a 3D configurator or AR viewer alongside customization

## Worth knowing

- A per-sale fee of 1.5% to 1.9% applies to customized products on top of the monthly price, and it does not apply to the 3D/AR viewer.
- Starter publishes only 10 customizable products; Grow and Scale raise that to 50 and 100.
- Adding sales channels costs $49.90 a month extra on Grow and Scale, and manual orders cost $0.50 each.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Zakeke you would be making checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 38 of the 70 other print-on-demand and dropshipping services grade higher. It costs $708 a year.

- You could not: Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Shopify, BigCommerce and Adobe Commerce among them, and has an API.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- You could not: Sharing with other people, which means accounts and invitations.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
