Give your designs a clean, professional finish with custom transfer stickers cut from solid pre-coloured vinyl. With no printed background or white border — just your design, transferred directly to the surface — transfer stickers deliver a bold, seamless look that printed stickers simply can't match.
Single colour stickers are cut as one piece and supplied with application tape for easy, accurate installation. Two-colour stickers are cut separately and manually assembled, with the first colour sitting on top of the second for a precise, layered result.
Because pre-coloured vinyl is pigmented through the material itself rather than printed, it offers the highest fade resistance available — outlasting printed vinyl in harsh UV, heat, and saltwater environments and making it the go-to choice for vehicles, boats, outdoor signage, and anywhere long-term durability matters.
FAQs
Design & Artwork
Transfer stickers require vector files only — accepted formats are AI, EPS, PDF, and SVG. If using Canva, export your file as an SVG. No bleed is required, but all fonts must be converted to outlines and any overlapping elements must form a united compound shape.
What is vector artwork?
Vector files are created using paths rather than pixels, meaning they can be scaled to any size without losing quality and can be read by our cutting machine to produce precise, clean cut lines. Raster files such as JPG, PNG, or JPEG cannot be used for transfer stickers as they do not contain the path data needed for cutting.
What if I don't have a vector file?
If your artwork is in a non-vector format such as PNG, JPG, or JPEG, we offer a "Make My Non-Vector File Cuttable" service. Your image or text will be redrawn using specialised design software and manually cleaned up for optimal cutting output. Files with high colour contrast work best — especially black and white. Images must be clear, undistorted, and high resolution for the best conversion result.
What if my file isn't cuttable?
If your uploaded file isn't suitable for cutting, we'll contact you directly. Adjusted files should be emailed back to us. If you're unable to adjust the file yourself, we can provide a custom quote to prepare a cut-ready file for you.
Do I need to supply cut lines?
No — our cutting machine reads the outline of your vector artwork directly. No separate cut line is required.
Will I see a proof before production?
A layout proof is available as an optional add-on. If selected, you'll receive a digital proof via email within 48 hours of placing your order. No order will proceed to production until the proof is approved via return email. Please check your junk mail folder if you haven't received it within this timeframe. Additional changes beyond the first proof will incur additional charges.
What is a layout proof?
A layout proof is a digital preview of your transfer sticker showing the design, colour, and cut outline as it will be produced. It allows you to review and approve everything before production begins.
Sizing & Design Limitations
Yes — due to the nature of the cutting process, there are minimum size and detail requirements that must be followed for a successful result.
All lines and strokes must be at least 2mm thick.
All lettering must be a minimum of 20mm in height. For all-caps bold sans-serif fonts only, a minimum of 10mm in height may be achievable — please email your file directly for a test cut and custom quote before ordering.
For lettering smaller than 20mm in complex or decorative fonts, please contact us before ordering as additional charges may apply.
Why are there minimum size requirements?
Transfer stickers are cut with a tiny blade and the unwanted background vinyl is manually removed before application tape is applied. The smaller or thinner an element is, the less adhesive there is to bond with the surface. Very thin lines can curl over time and small text may be susceptible to lifting with cleaning or handling. Minimum size requirements are in place to ensure your sticker performs as expected once applied.
My design has fine detail — will it work as a transfer sticker?
Highly detailed designs with thin lines, intricate elements, or small text may not be suitable for the transfer sticker process. If you're unsure whether your design meets the requirements, please email your file to us before ordering and we can advise whether it's suitable or suggest adjustments.
Materials & Finishing
Transfer stickers are cut from long-term outdoor self-adhesive pre-coloured vinyl. Unlike printed stickers, the colour runs through the material itself rather than being applied on top, giving pre-coloured vinyl the highest fade resistance available — making it the best choice for vehicles, boats, outdoor signage, and any application involving prolonged UV, heat, or saltwater exposure.
What is the difference between single colour and two-colour transfer stickers?
Single colour stickers are cut as one piece from a single colour of vinyl and supplied with application tape ready to install. Two-colour stickers are cut separately from two different colours of vinyl and manually assembled, with the first colour sitting on top of the second. Any overlapping areas in your design will feature the first colour over the second.
What does the application tape do?
Application tape holds all the elements of your transfer sticker together in their correct positions during installation, allowing you to apply the entire design to your surface as one cohesive piece. Once applied and pressed down firmly, the tape is peeled away leaving just the vinyl on the surface.
Will transfer stickers fade over time?
All vinyl will fade over time with prolonged exposure to UV and the elements — however pre-coloured vinyl offers the best fade resistance of any sticker material. Because the colour runs through the material itself rather than being printed on top, it is significantly more resistant to UV fading, heat, and saltwater than printed vinyl.
What surfaces can transfer stickers adhere to?
Transfer stickers adhere best to smooth, clean, flat surfaces including painted metal, fibreglass, glass, and hard plastics. They are not suitable for textured, ribbed, or rough surfaces, or any surface that curves in two directions simultaneously. For vehicles with ceramic or Raptor coating applied, stickers will not adhere reliably.
Are transfer stickers removable?
Transfer stickers feature strong permanent adhesive designed for long-lasting outdoor application. While they can be removed, the vinyl will not be reusable. They are not designed for repositioning once applied.
