Have an AI-generated patch image?

About digitization & mold costs
for new patch designs.
Embroidered patches may require a one-time digitization fee for new artwork. PVC patches may require a one-time mold fee for new shapes. Here is how it works — including AI-generated designs. Here's how it works.
When a mold is needed
A new mold is required for patch designs we haven't manufactured before. This includes entirely new silhouettes, custom AI-generated designs, or unique outlines from your reference photos. Standard catalog shapes do not require a new mold.
How we handle it
We review your uploaded design and tell you upfront whether a mold cost applies — and exactly how much. The mold belongs to your agency, so any reorder of the same design in the future skips this fee.
AI-generated designs
If you've created a patch image with ChatGPT, Midjourney, DALL·E, or any other AI tool, upload it as-is. We'll evaluate manufacturability, suggest minor adjustments if needed, and confirm the mold cost in your quote.
No surprises
Every quote includes the full breakdown: per-badge price, mold cost (if any), setup fees, and shipping. You always know the total before approving production.
