Released May 27, 2010.

Sticviews.com of Plano Texas has worked with Improving Enterprises, a Dallas-based software development firm, to develop an advanced printing platform that allows customers to create personalized custom decals online.  On May 7^th, 2010 Sticviews released the first set of dropshipper decal APIs (application programming interface) which allows for other businesses to sell custom decals and skins on their web sites.  The simple set up process takes only a day and sticviews does all the custom production, packaging and shipping with your own branding. 

“These new printing APIs will open exciting opportunities for Sticviews as we continue our mission to provide the highest quality custom decals and skins to a new group of customers,” stated Bryce Finnerty, CEO of Sticviews. “These APIs will create new sales channels that empower other businesses to drive new revenue by selling their own custom skins and decals.”

This is huge for online stores to be able to drop ship lucrative custom decal products under their own brand, and tap into new products and revenue opportunities in this tough economy.  The low cost of sticviews allows for generous profits for retailers working with the dropshipping decals API.

Many companies are struggling to monetize digital content and these decal APIs allow customers or clients to purchase customized physical products using existing content. Photos, digital art, signs, characters, video game snap shots, and company logos can be merchandised into products for sale on company web sites and automatically submitted to Sticviews production facility for fulfillment and shipping.  There is no work for the companies beyond selling the products from their online stores.   

“We’ve used the latest Microsoft technologies and industry best practices to provide a simple, secure integration for Sticviews’ B2B customers,” mentioned Allen Hurst, Assistant Director of Rural Sourcing at Improving Enterprises. “We’ve made the process as easy as possible.” Setup can take less than a day, and all tools and code are provided for the API in .NET, PHP, or Java for flexibility.

Sticviews custom decals and skins are remarkable stickers because the materials used are very easy to install and when removed they leave no sticky residue. Every print is produced in full-color, high-resolution, photo quality at 720 DPI. Product possibilities include laptop skins, iPad skins, car decals, wall decals, artist reprints, custom posters, window signs, and much more.  These revolutionary materials are good for nearly any use you could think of to skin or decorate anything.

Personalization of products is a hot, rapidly growing trend, and many businesses are focusing on it such as Zazzle, SkinIt and FatHeads.  However, they charge high prices that leave no margins for retailers, and they don’t produce them under your brand.  The Sticviews solution allows businesses to enter the rapidly growing personalized decals and skins market, under their own brand, and with almost no cost to entry.  Signing up is as simple as filling out a request for an API key.
