How to Design a Banner Using 48HourPrint.com’s Design Tool

Our Step-by-Step Guide to Designing Custom Banners

Step 1: Create your own account at 48HourPrint.com

If you have an existing 48HourPrint.com account, do log in first before shopping! This way, we can easily save your artwork in case you want to work on it later.

Step 2: Pick your preferred banner from our Banners page

We offer a wide range of banners – from the usual vinyl, fabric, mesh, all the way to fancier options such as step-and-repeat banners and custom backdrops. Take note of our promo codes too for more discounts!

Step 3: Fill out the order calculator

Select product specs such as size, quantity, and print turnaround time. Some banners also come with optional accessories, so feel free to add those when needed. Take note that the print turnaround time only covers processing your order! To check the estimate shipping dates and rates, click “Estimate Delivery Date & Shipping Cost” at the bottom of the order calculator.
