Branding your cups is simpler than most business owners expect. There's no design degree required and no giant upfront order. Here's how the process actually works, start to finish — you can also see it summarized on our custom branding page.
Step 1: Send your artwork
Start with whatever logo you have. Vector files (AI, EPS, PDF, SVG) are ideal because they scale cleanly, but high-resolution PNGs and JPGs work too. A good cup printer will clean up and lay out your art for free — you don't need print-ready files to get started.
Step 2: Choose your cup and colors
Pick the cup material and size that fits your menu, then decide on color. Cups print in full color, so multi-color logos and artwork are no problem. The print wraps around the cup, giving you a generous branded surface.
Step 3: Approve a digital proof
Before anything goes to press, you'll get a free digital proof showing exactly how your brand sits on the cup — size, placement, and color. This is your chance to adjust. Nothing prints until you sign off, so there are no surprises.
Step 4: Production and delivery
Once approved, your cups run on high-speed, food-safe presses. Most custom orders ship in about two to three weeks. Your artwork stays on file, so reorders are quick and consistent every time.
