What Businesses Can Benefit From Using Promotional Merchandise? Local Coffee Shops - If you’re a local coffee shop, searching for a way to attract new customers to your business, promotional products could be a fantastic solution. Pin badges and stickers could be fantastic ways to promote your business by giving customers cool items that they can wear and business cards with a loyalty system could all be fantastic ways of attracting new customers. If you make your own cakes at your coffee shop, you could also create custom cupcake toppers. Use fantastic designs incorporated with your branding and customers may take photos of your delicious cakes with the cupcake topper for their social media profiles. Then their friends will see the delicious cakes and because of the fantastic cupcake toppers, all their friends will know where they can find the delicious cakes.
Bands/Musical Artists - If you’ve ever been to a concert/gig you’ll remember the hordes of people gathering around a merch table. Merchandise is a fantastic tool for promoting your music. By using catchy slogans or fantastic artwork you can attract fans to promote your music in their day-to-day lives. There are many different ways you can promote your music with merchandise, you can use custom keyrings, posters, phone covers, pin badges and stickers to spread your image and potentially attract new listeners.
Local Activity Clubs - Custom keyrings, zipper charms or pin badges would be a fantastic way to promote your local activity club. Passionate club members would be able to proudly wear your merchandise where it can be seen by other members of the public who may be inspired to become a member of your activity club.
Also various different types of custom charms, custom pins or standees could be a fantastic way to advertise your business. Many people like to collect zipper charms for their bags and this could be a fantastic opportunity for a promotional item for your business. Custom keyrings can be a fantastic form of marketing to include in your campaign. Giving your customers a promotional gift can be very useful to help increase brand awareness. A promotional product is an advertisement that keeps on giving. If somebody has a promotional zipper charm on their bag from your businesses, people they interact with in their daily lives will notice the charm. This could lead to conversations about your business and possibly attract new customers for you. Promotional products don’t have to be throwaway objects that are kept at home. Small charms, pin badges or enamel pins can be added to people’s bags or their clothing. Promotional merchandise is a way of rewarding your faithful and loyal customers with a branded gift, but it also spreads your image and your branding to others. Word of mouth is a powerful marketing tool and high quality; beautifully designed promotional products can start that conversation.

Round Stickers (small)
Really pleased with my first order from Zap! Staff were extremely helpful, and kept in contact frequently to let me know what stage it was at. I was sent a proof to approve before production started, which was really reassuring.
The stickers are so cute, and are of a really good quality :D

Love them!
Love the look and feel of these! [40mm width + walnut veneer + matte finish]
I used the custom template in order to get a borderless print & they came out just how I wanted them to.
They also included extra pins in case some arrived damaged, which I'm grateful for.
Hope to order from Zap Creatives again!

Amazing!
I couldn't be happier with the keychain! Extremely high quality, doesnt scratch against the keys, no sharp edges. Staff were extremely helpful and notified me of a problem with the two sprite sides not matching up, so glad they pointed it out instead of just printing it. Amazing to see my lil character come to life like this!

Excellent job, 10/10
Great communication and excellent products! Having ordered keyring and sticker samples previously, I was just as pleased with my order this time. The print quality and materials are fantastic for both wooden charms and die cut stickers! I would highly recommend Zap Creatives for all your merch needs. Thanks again!

Super cute!!
They are exactly what I wanted! The material is quite thick so it is durable, and my design pops out and it really clear. I also love the fact that I got extra copies in case something happens to the one that I have! 🩷
I really trust this place and is my go to when buying personalised keychains and stickers. I requested some, to give to my friends for Christmas. They are going to love their Christmas presents! 🥹🫶🏽

Charming Charms!
I make Disneyland-themed Christmas ornaments each year for my "GoingToGuides" Etsy shop and I'm so pleased to have found such a wonderful source for custom charms with my art. They are absolutely gorgeous and I love that the art is two-sided instead of having a blank back like my previous maker. Thank you!

Great products and service!
I've ordered thousands of wood charms/pins from Zap at this point. Wood products have become a large part of my brand and this will always be my go-to place to get them done. I've only had a few issues with orders over the years but they have always been quickly resolved. Highly recommend!

Very Nice Quality Glitter Charms!
I placed a small order for Glitter Keychains to test out Zap! Creatives as a vendor and now my only wish is that I made a larger order! I love the quality of these and they came out perfect. I will definitely be placing future orders! My artwork file was pretty much ready to print, but their design team will work with you if you need it.

sturdy material, colorful print
The wood is nice and light, I've had one of the phone charms on my own case for the last 2 weeks and it's shown no signs of damage or scratching from daily use. Also, my designs had a lot of light and vivid colors which the printer transferred onto the wood without dulling or blurring. While I wish there was a double-sided option, overall, they are of very good quality!

Beautiful Job
I'm very happy with these pins. The printing & color is perfect, and the metal and texture of the print is perfect for this old timey typewriter. Job was completed quickly and the staff at Zap are helpful and responsive. I've had many complements on the first batch I had made. Thank you!

Well worth the price, production was fast and the process was very easy for someone with no experience in this sorta stuff! Super pleased with the outcomes, thanks a lot!
Everything looks great except I asked for a fully transparent circle base and the one I got has the "default" material label on the back that shows through and gives it a green hue. The digital proof I was provided with included a fully transparent base. The package also came with two additional sets printed wrong (to protect the one printed right?), I have nothing else to do with those but to throw them away.
