Both cover merch & print on demand. Here is what separates them on price, billing, what you can take with you, and coverage.

Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
Print on demand routed through thirty print sites
Dreamship connects a shop to more than thirty printing locations and picks between them, which is what decides whether an order posted from a customer's own country arrives in a week or a month. The free plan covers product creation, the marketplace integrations and two connected stores. Paying buys a discount on every unit rather than a feature, so the subscription pays for itself at a volume the merchant can calculate. Item costs are quoted per product and are not on this page.
Our note
Work out your monthly unit count before upgrading, because the discount is the whole product and below roughly a hundred items a month it will not cover the subscription. Ask for the item costs before committing either way, since those are what actually decide whether print on demand works for your price point.
Print on demand built around circular clothing
Teemill prints on organic cotton and takes the worn-out shirt back to make the next one, which is the part of it nobody else offers. The store is free to build and you pay the product cost per order, so a shop can exist before it sells anything. It is a UK operation, and the shipping offers reflect that.

Our note
The returns programme is the reason to choose Teemill over a cheaper printer, and it only pays off if your audience is the kind that will use it. Look at the base prices next to Printful's before deciding, because the margin difference is real.
