I am based in Texas. How can I avoid sales tax?
1. The account holder will need to enter their business information within their account so that we can later make it tax exempt.
2. Provide a valid Texas Sales Tax ID (apply here) or any other valid U.S. state sales tax ID.
3. E-mail us a completed and signed copy of the Texas Sales and Use Tax Resale Certificate / Exemption Certification.   If your Tax ID number is outside of the state of Texas, enter it in the second tax ID field below the one for the Texas field.
Please note the following: We cannot refund sales tax charges for previously placed orders. Also, we cannot accept tax exempt forms from other states since they may not be recognized by the state of Texas.

You can do this by creating a virtual inventory of prints or cards.

Can I store images I frequently print?
Your account offers you the ability to store a limited number of images based upon your account type. You can categorize these in various custom galleries you setup. After logging in, go to the “My Images” link which will take you to a batch uploading tool. Select the image files you want to upload and they will be uploaded to your account. You can order prints from these images anytime you want. This saves a lot of time, especially if you have large image files. These uploads will be stored securely and are inaccessible to the public. Whenever you place an order for a print from one of these images, a copy of your high resolution image will be forwarded to our production department for printing.
