I Want Pins - How Do I Order?

February 16, 2026

Whether you’re a brand manager looking for premium corporate gifts, a creator launching a new merch line, or an event planner needing high-quality swag on a deadline, the question is always the same: How do I actually get these made?

At PinProsPlus, we believe the process should be as creative as the pins themselves—not a headache. We’ve streamlined our workflow to ensure that even if you have zero design experience, you end up with a professional product.

Here is our simple, 5-step path to getting your custom pins.

Step 1: Start with a Vision (Not a File)

You don’t need to be a graphic designer to work with us. Whether you have a high-res Adobe Illustrator file or a rough sketch on a cocktail napkin, we can work with it.

Pin Pro Tip: If you aren’t sure where to start, tell us your "vibe." Are you looking for the classic raised-metal feel of Soft Enamel, or the smooth, jewelry-quality finish of Hard Enamel?

Step 1

Define Your Purpose

Decide if your goal is branding, celebration, or fundraising. A clear purpose ensures your pins resonate with your audience.

Step 2

Choose Your Type

Go with Soft Enamel for a textured, 3D look, or Hard Enamel for a smooth, premium, jewelry-like finish.

Step 3

Sketch Your Idea

Capture your core concept simply. Most pins range from 0.75 to 2 inches—clearer designs make the biggest impact.

Step 4

Pick Your Palette

Limit your palette to 3-5 colors for maximum visual appeal. Use event or brand colors to make your design pop.

Step 5

Digitalize the Design

Convert your sketch to vector format. No design experience? PinProsPlus offers professional assistance—just ask us!

Step 6

Choose Your Plating

Choose from Gold, Silver, Black Nickel, or Copper. Your plating choice sets the entire mood and feel of your final pin.

Step 7

Decide on Backings

Select a Butterfly Clutch, Rubber Backing, or a high-security Locking Back based on how and where the pin will be worn.

Step 8

Approve Your Proof

We provide digital proofs before production. Carefully review text and colors to ensure you'll love your final product.

Step 9

Place Your Order

Finalize your quantity—bulk orders provide significant savings. Let us know your shipping deadline and you're set!

Step 3: Review Your Digital Proof

Once we have your idea, our design team goes to work. Within 24 hours, you’ll receive a high-fidelity digital proof. This shows you exactly where the metal lines will be, the Pantone colors we’ll use, and the overall dimensions.

Not quite right? No problem. We offer unlimited revisions until the design is exactly what you envisioned.

Step 4: Approval & Precision Manufacturing

Once you hit "Approve," our factory springs into action. We combine old-world craftsmanship with modern precision. Whether it’s die-striking your metal or hand-filling your enamel colors, we ensure every pin meets our "Quality First" standard.

Step 5: Doorstep Delivery
