The BASIC ACCESS plan is our no-cost option for the Sub That Learning Library App. With this plan you can access our Sublimation for Beginners mini-series and 50+ of our most popular tutorials from other content libraries. Full access to other content libraries requires upgrading to one of our premium pricing plans.
We offer different paid pricing plans based on your specific learning desires. To see the latest plans and what is included, visit the web app subscription page. Once you have subscribed to any premium plan, you will not lose access to any content within that plan and you will automatically have access to new content added. Future courses relating to laser, embroidering, DTF, DTG and UV Printing will be part of the Premium Access content plan.
Members who took advantage of the All Access Lifetime subscription during the initial launch of the Sub That Learning Library App were part of a promotional plan. This plan was manually enabled on their app accounts but is not part of the regular pricing plans. Therefore, it will not display as a subscription within the mobile app (it will display on the web version). This DOES NOT impact content access in any way.
The Founder’s All Access Lifetime plan was a promotional launch plan available until June 2024. It included all access to the entire Sub That Learning Library app and all future content. This promotional plan is no longer available for purchase.
At this time, there is no monthly subscription plan for the Sub That Learning Library App. We discontinued this option in favor of one-time pricing plans based on various interests within the app. Check out the app subscription page to see the current pricing and what is included within the app.
Our app is available for download in the Google Play Store and Apple App Store as well as accessible via the Sub That Web App. Enjoy accessing it via any platform with your login credentials. You can stream tutorials to Roku, Apple TV and Google Chromecast devices.

You can see the version number on Google by clicking on “About This App”; on Apple the version number is available under “What’s New – Version History”. On your mobile device, to check your app version, visit your settings panel, locate the app and find the general information.
NO. This app and designed for learning and community only. There is no selling allowed in any form or fashion. While our app is designed to replace our Facebook group, it is also meant to be different and more beneficial for the users.
The vendor fee for the Merry Maker Market is $35 during the early bird promotion from 10/16-10/31. The vendor fee will then be $75 from 11/1-11/15 when the cut off for vendors is.
In many ways, we are replicating the in-person experience with our virtual event. Guests will purchase entry tickets to the event ($10). Their ticket will grant them access to the vendor market map where they can shop via category to their desire. Each vendor has a dedicated storefront page with their branding, products, social media and marketing information, and introduction video about themselves and their products (optional) for shoppers. There is no cross advertising on vendor pages – this allows each maker to stand out on their own, just as they would in an in-person event.
Customers will place orders through the secure online portal for your dedicated shop and you, as the business owner, will print the order and ship. Our interface makes it easy to control shipping notifications, order management and your personal payment solutions all in one place.
Your vendor space will display up to 15 products (with up to 15 variations per product) of your choosing. I.E. Product 1: Holiday Waffle Towels; Variations – Different holiday themed designs. Essentially creating the potential for 225 products.
Aside from the vendor registration fee, there are no other fees associated with this event on our end.
We currently have a selection of live demonstrations planned for the Merry Maker Market event focused around holiday activities. Cookie decorating classes, gift wrapping classes and DIY craft classes are just some of what is on our list. We are looking to expand on this so if you have ideas and would like to offer up a demonstration – let us know at hello@subthat.us!
These demonstrations will be “live”. This means they are all pre-recorded and aired as if they are live for the guests. This helps reduce technological failure and event-day stress. We are happy to accept any relevant 30 minute demonstrations that you may have, as a vendor. Demonstrations should be duplicatable or informative in nature. Showing people how to create things with equipment and materials they don’t have is not what we are looking for, for this event.
A few years ago, we hosted a giveaway in Sub That where we did a holiday bingo game as a way to gain entry into the giveway. It was very popular and well-loved. We’ve decided to incorporate that into the Merry Maker Market event. With every ticket purchase, guests will get a bingo card with a combination of activities and words. During the event, bingo words will be sent out for them to mark off. Leading up to the event, they can complete activities on their bingo card and tag us on social media. These activities will all be free or close to free. Simple things like volunteering locally, donating to a food pantry, providing books to a little free library, sending a card, ect. The goal is to spread holiday cheer and give back to our communities in what has been a difficult year for many.
Creatives is the marketing term for social media posts, reels, email scripts and other promotional materials. To help make this as successful as possible – and help you grow your business in the process – all vendors will have access to plug and play creatives. These will allow you to easily add your logo and product photos and promote your attendance at the event to your audience.
An affiliate is someone who earns commission from the sales of a product. We believe in community supporting community which is why all vendors will be enrolled as an affiliate and have a dedicated link to promote the event to their audience. If someone signs up through your link, you will earn 20% of the sale ($2).
Affiliate commissions will be paid out at the end of the event. Vendors will be able to track their unique link clicks, sales and payout on their account at the Merry Maker Market website.
The goal of this event is to offer select products similar to what you would offer at a vendor event. Personalized products are approved – such as monogramed or photo products. We recognize that many makers will make-on-demand so as not to waste products for the event (perk over an in-person event). Fully custom products are not permitted. However, we encourage all makers that offer custom to have a contact option on their storefront to allow customers to place special orders – just like you would with an in-person event.
This event is designed for makers of all kinds. We have over 40 different product categories spanning everything from soaps and skincare to candied nuts to print crafts. We want this event to encompass a little something for everyone. As long as your products fit into a category, you’re good to go. These categories were based on a few of our favorite Christmas vendor events and how they select vendors. If there is one you think we should add – let us know.
You’ll notice that this event doesn’t cater to businesses that do not have a target customer. This is by design. We love a multi-passionate maker but in order for this event to really thrive for everyone, we want vendors who can focus their product offerings into a select category instead of trying to offer a little of everything and anything.
The Merry Maker Market virtual event is designed to help makers get their products in front of customers that might not see them otherwise. We know that navigating SEO and social media marketing is a real challenge for many makers, today. Even with platforms like Etsy, the heavy competition makes it hard to gain traction. This event is designed to be similar to an in-person event but give people the flexibility of enjoying it from home, anywhere in the United States.
Vendor will be able to grow their social media and email lists, make sales, and take advantage of perks like affiliate earnings. We will also be showcasing vendors leading up to the event and during it to help continue to grow exposure for all involved. It’s a lot of the benefits without all of the hassle of in person events.
No. We want this event to seem like a blessing – not a burden. The design of this event is meant to allow makers to pre-sell items that they can produce on demand or sell stock they already have. You get the best of both worlds. There is no stock quantity requirements and there is no limit on how many of any item you can sell. There are no fees for selling beyond the vendor registration fee.
Any USA-based maker can participate in this event. This event is not open to artisans outside of the United States at this time.
Vendors will ship products direct to customers, just as they would from any website sale. Customers are charged retail shipping rates when ordering, based on your shop location, their delivery address and the product weight + dimensions provided. Vendors will have access to discounted commercial rates for labels through their mini vendor site dashboard. These labels are paid for by the funds you receive from your order which includes the shipping costs – just as they would be on any website. Your mini vendor site dashboard is designed to be an all-inclusive space to make a seamless process from ordering to shipping for both the customer and the maker.
Vendors may also choose to offer free shipping on products or total orders. Please remember that your pricing must factor in the cost of shipping if you choose free shipping option.
Vendors can also choose to use third-party shipping services like Pirate Ship, if they choose.
Each vendor will collect their own payments through the secure payment gateway of their mini vendor shop. Vendors can choose to link their Stripe, Square or PayPal accounts for payment processing.
There is no intermediary of payment processing or payouts between the event page and the vendor. This means that we do not collect payments, take a percentage and then send you the remainder (like Etsy). It also means that you do not have any wait times on your payments (like Etsy and Amazon). Just as you would take payments on a full fledge website or in person at an event with a card reader and have access to them immediately, your mini vendor shop will do the same.
The mini vendor shop is designed to be a smooth and inclusive experience for the customer and the maker – similar to an in-person event. While we are hosting the event, marketing the event and providing support for vendors – we want each vendor to have an experience that grows their business without being “nickeled and dimed”.
