Custom Transfer Stickers – Professional Vinyl Transfers
Transfer stickers use a carrier film for clean, professional application to walls, windows, and smooth surfaces without a visible background.
Price starts from $0.30 per piece for large volume orders. Final pricing depends on size, material, printing, and quantity.
Cut Vinyl Applied With Transfer Tape
Transfer stickers (transfer decals) apply as cut-vinyl designs moved onto a surface with a layer of application tape, leaving only the vinyl shapes behind with no visible background or backing. This is how professional lettering and multi-piece logos get applied cleanly to walls, windows, and vehicles — every element stays perfectly positioned relative to the others.
The process has three layers: backing paper, your cut vinyl, and transfer tape on top. You peel the backing, apply the taped design to the surface, then remove the tape, leaving crisp vinyl behind. We supply everything pre-taped and aligned, so even complex layouts apply as a single unit.
If you're comparing options, it's also worth looking at our custom glass and window sticker printing.
