Digital product sales with the tax handled
Lemon Squeezy acts as merchant of record, so sales tax and EU VAT stop being your problem. That alone justifies the fee for anyone selling internationally. Subscriptions, licence keys and affiliates are all included.
Our note
Worth the 5 percent the first time an EU VAT return would otherwise be yours to file. Against Gumroad it is half the rate and more setup, which is a good trade at any real volume.

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.
