FinerWorks offers FREE order fulfillment in the form of white label (drop shipping) for artists and photographers who want prints shipped under their name or brand.
This brief guide is meant to highlight those features we offer at FinerWorks for artists and photographers who use us as their order fulfillment service. At FinerWorks, we believe providing reliable order fulfillment must be simple. In addition, we want artists and photographers to be confident that their customers will receive the prints exactly as intended. There is no application process, and it does not take any special knowledge or technical expertise. If you know how to access photos or image files off your computer and use the Internet, your basic requirements have been met. If you have used FinerWorks before for online ordering, this guide will help you make sure you have not overlooked some of the tools we offer.
What is Drop Shipping?
One of the first things we did when we built our initial ordering system over a decade ago was provide an automatic drop shipping option. Drop shipping simply means you do not need to carry any inventory or worry about packaging and shipping. You commission the drop shipper (which would be FinerWorks) to send the order to your customers, but branded under your name, so it looks like you or your company shipped it.
Many big online companies rely on this method either solely or to let them ship products that they normally would not be able to inventory. Amazon.com uses this method for some of the items sold, and at the individual level, eBay and Etsy sellers use this method all the time.
How it Works
At checkout in the area where you select your “Shipping Method,” there will be a check box you can click to indicate you want it drop-shipped. If you provide a valid address in your account’s business profile, we will automatically check this for you. The order is then shipped and made to look like you are the sender. No information about us will be included. Prices will also be removed from the packing slip.

If you like a title we have on display, however the artist or GeoGalleries is not offering it in the size or type of printed product you are looking for, contact us to let us know. In most cases, we can make it exclusively available to you if it is something our production house can fulfill.
We have built in volume & bulk discounts that will cover most scenarios; however, if the scope and size of the order is not listed when checking pricing, please contact us with the details of what you want to order and the time frame so that we can work out the fulfillment and pricing of the order.
Shipping costs depend on shipping methods and available options based on an order’s contents and in some cases the destination. To get a general sense of shipping costs, please visit our shipping page. For a more detailed view of shipping options and costs available, customers should place a mock order by adding items to their shopping cart and partially complete the checkout experience without confirming the order or providing payment.
For most sales, we ask that the transaction be completed online via credit card or PayPal. If you have a corporate buyers account, additional payment arrangements can be made.
No. The Geo Galleries logo you see on the preview is a website watermark for us to protect the artists’ intellectual copyright to the image when viewing it online. The actual artwork does not have this watermark printed on it.
