Offer personalized embroidered products from your website
Wilcom's Quality Embroidery Lettering
One of the typical capabilities is to add Lettering to any product by using Wilcom’s professionally digitized fonts to create custom, high-quality, production-ready embroidery.

Multiple Name Drops In One Step
Customers in the uniform business who work for schools, clubs, franchise shops, security companies, local police, or the fire brigade will enjoy Wilcom’s unique Team Name feature. Any group requiring names that change frequently or even annually would benefit.
Customers simply upload the design with a list of names, and the individual embroidery designs are automatically created for each person, ready to be stitched on the embroidery machine.

Personalized Monograms
Wilcom’s Monogramming feature is a great tool to create artistic, high-quality monograms. Your customers can choose from a collection of monogram templates, add their initials, and have a production-ready monogram to stitch in seconds.


All the above features produce outstanding stitch quality, characteristic of Wilcom’s EmbroideryStudio software.
Display Realistic Embroidery Designs
Wilcom’s TrueView™ feature shows the embroidery image of any of the above designs in a realistic 3-dimensional simulation. These TrueView images are a transparent PNG file, so they display perfectly on any selected garment.
This is far more realistic for the customer and gives them a true sense of the finished item, improving the likelihood that they will proceed to place the online custom order.
Selling items with your own embroidery designs?
Your customers can personalize your own pre-configured and editable design templates on your website or application. Allow a customer to change the text, font, size, and colors while maintaining your embroidery template’s overall professional design and layout. You control the level of customizations made available.
