About our subscription boxes
For a subscription brand, the box arrives every month and carries the whole experience: protection in transit, the reveal when the lid opens and the photo your subscribers post. Most subscription boxes are self-locking corrugated mailers, printed outside with your brand and inside with a message, pattern or theme.
We size the box around your kit, design inserts that keep items in place and keep the same dieline from month to month, so seasonal or themed designs are just a new print. Orders start at 10 boxes, which suits launches, test months and limited editions.
Subscription box setups
Choosing the board
| Board | Best for | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| White E-flute | Bright, colorful designs | Best surface for full-color print |
| Kraft E-flute | Natural and eco brands | Print in dark inks or white ink |
| B-flute | Heavier kits, bottles and jars | More cushioning and crush resistance |
What affects the price of subscription boxes
Every box is made to order, so each order is quoted individually. These are the things that move the price most, in order:
- Size and board. Larger kits and B-flute board for heavier items cost more than small E-flute mailers.
- Inside printing. A printed interior adds a second print pass, usually a small share of the total.
- Inserts. Die-cut inserts that hold each item add material and assembly.
- Design changes. Keeping one dieline and changing only the print each month keeps costs down.
- Quantity. The unit price falls steeply as subscriber numbers grow.

Planning a subscription box
- Measure the packed kit, including tissue and insert, before sizing the box
- Keep one dieline so new themes only need new artwork
- Check your carrier rates: a right-sized box can drop a pricing tier
- Order enough for two or three months to keep the unit price down
- Send us a test kit and we can confirm the fit with a structural sample
Built for unboxing videos
Inside printing, a printed tissue wrap and an insert that presents each item turn opening the box into content. A short message or QR code on the inside lid is one of the simplest ways to get subscribers posting and sharing.
How ordering works
