Get a project quote based on your design, size, quantity, and delivery destination.
At CustomPlushMaker, our minimum order is 100 pieces per design and per colorway. Sample development starts at $155, with the final fee based on the work required for your design.
Your quote separates sample development, production, and any additional costs for testing, packaging, functional components, and shipping—so you can see what is included before moving forward.
The starting fee is a reference for conventional plush designs up to approximately 30 cm (12 inches) with moderate construction and decoration requirements. The final quote depends on the actual development work.
For example, a conventional teddy bear wearing one standard outfit with an embroidered or printed logo may fall within the starting-price scope. More complex shapes, multiple decoration locations, or additional plush clothing and accessories can increase the fee.
Development is based on the artwork you provide and includes sewing pattern development, material selection, sample construction, and review of the sample’s appearance and workmanship. Original character design or separately commissioned design adjustments are quoted separately.
Initial sample development includes two rounds of revisions within the agreed design and specifications. We work with you to refine the sample through consolidated feedback. A new character, a major change in shape, or a size change requiring new patterns is quoted as new sample development. Added clothing or accessories can be quoted separately.
You can review the sample through photos and videos before deciding whether to have it shipped. Physical sample shipping and any applicable import charges are additional. If you approve the sample without physical shipment, you do not pay for that sample shipment. Any applicable project discount is stated separately in your quote.
*Prices do not include taxes or shipping. Final sample quote confirmed after design review.
We review your artwork, size, construction, and requested features, then confirm the development fee
After sample payment is received, the first shape prototype typically takes 1–3 calendar weeks
You review the prototype and provide consolidated feedback so we can refine the agreed design
We review the completed details with you through photos, videos, or physical sample shipment
The final sample and production specifications are confirmed before production proceeds
The first shape prototype focuses on the overall silhouette, proportions, and construction. It does not include all final embroidery, printing, or logo details.
The 1–3-week estimate is for this initial prototype—not for final sample approval or delivery. Revisions, customer feedback, and shipping require additional time.
Approval to ship a sample and approval to begin production are separate decisions.
We separate the main costs so you can compare complete project budgets. Your quote identifies which items are included in the production unit price and which are charged separately.
| Cost item | How it is shown in your quote |
|---|---|
| Sample development | A separate development fee based on the agreed design |
| Plush production | Unit price and total price for the specified quantity |
| Functional components | Separately identified where applicable, including sound, lights, movement, or interactive modules |
| Packaging and branding | The agreed packaging, labels, hang tags, and any separately priced custom options |
| Third-party safety testing | Separately quoted for the relevant testing program, including the production cost of required test units |
| Sample shipping | Quoted separately when a physical sample is shipped |
| Production shipping | Quoted for the agreed shipping method, destination, and delivery scope |
| Other destination charges | Any charges excluded from the shipping quote are identified |
Even for a 100-piece order, we recommend including safety testing in your budget. Testing does not reduce your order’s delivery quantity: if you order 100 pieces, you still receive 100 finished pieces.
Custom plush production pricing depends on the work and materials required for your specific design. Quantity matters, but it is only one part of the calculation.
| Pricing factor | What can affect the cost |
|---|---|
| Order quantity | Preparation costs and production efficiency vary with run size |
| Size and filling | Finished dimensions, material use, and filling requirements |
| Overall construction | Pattern complexity, assembly steps, and sewing time |
| Embroidery and printing | Decoration locations, artwork requirements, and production steps |
| Plush clothing and accessories | Additional pieces that require development and assembly |
| Fabrics and components | Material specifications, sourcing requirements, and functional modules |
| Packaging | Standard packing versus custom packaging requirements |
A 100-piece run will usually cost more per unit than a 2,000-piece run of the same design. Smaller orders spread production preparation over fewer pieces and may offer fewer opportunities for specialized assembly-line work.
If you are comparing quantities, ask us to quote the quantities you are considering using the same product specifications.
| Topic | Our policy |
|---|---|
| Sample payment | The sample development fee is paid in full before development begins |
| Production payment | An agreed deposit is paid before production, with the balance due after production is completed and before shipment |
| Development fee and production orders | The sample development fee is charged separately and is not refunded or credited toward production |
| Cancellation before development | If development has not started, a refund can be arranged, less the actual bank transaction fees |
| Cancellation after development starts | The sample development fee is nonrefundable once development begins |
| Unchanged reorders | The original sample development fee is not charged again for the same design and specifications |
Your approved physical sample can be shipped to you. Sewing patterns, cutting templates, embroidery digitizing files, and other internal production documents remain part of our manufacturing records and are not supplied externally.
Our minimum order is 100 pieces per design and per colorway. Different designs or colorways cannot be combined to reach the minimum.
The price depends on size, construction, materials, decoration, and packaging. Send us your artwork or a rough sketch for a project quote. We list sample development, production, testing, and shipping separately so you can review the full budget.
No. Sample development is based on the artwork you provide. Original character design and separately commissioned design adjustments are quoted separately.
No. The fee covers the agreed development work and is separate from production pricing. Placing a production order does not make it refundable or eligible for a production credit.
Testing is quoted separately. The testing quote includes the cost of producing the units required by the laboratory, without reducing your order’s delivery quantity.
Sample development requires full payment upfront. Production orders can use an agreed deposit, with the remaining balance due after production is completed and before shipment.
We do not charge the original sample development fee again for an unchanged reorder of the same design and specifications. New development work and any required testing are quoted separately.
We can quote ocean freight, air freight, international courier, and door-to-door services. Your quote identifies the shipping method, delivery destination, included charges, exclusions, and validity period.
Send us your artwork or a rough sketch, approximate size, quantity, sales market, and delivery destination.
If you need custom packaging, plush clothing and accessories, or interactive features, include those ideas too. A rough sketch is enough to start the conversation.
We will review your requirements and explain the proposed development, production, testing, and shipping costs.
