Why Use Paperform for Custom Cap Orders?

Traditional order forms often involve messy email chains, lost artwork files, and confusion about customization options. Paperform transforms this process into a smooth, professional experience:

Crystal-clear product selection: Customers choose exactly what they want through visual product options—cap style, decoration method, colors, and sizing—reducing back-and-forth and order errors.

Secure file uploads: Collect logo artwork, design files, and mockups directly in the form, keeping everything organized and linked to each order.

Instant pricing calculations: Use Paperform's built-in calculation fields to show real-time pricing based on quantity, decoration method, and customization options.

Payment collection: Connect Stripe, PayPal, or Square to collect deposits or full payment at the time of order, improving cash flow and reducing no-shows.

Automated order processing: Each submission triggers exactly what needs to happen next—send order confirmations, notify your production team, and update your order tracking system automatically.

How This Template Works

This form guides customers through a professional ordering experience:

1. Cap style selection with options for baseball caps, snapbacks, truckers, beanies, and more
2. Decoration method choice between embroidery and screen printing, each with specific artwork requirements
3. Logo artwork upload with clear file format guidance
4. Color customization for both cap body and decoration thread/ink
5. Sizing options covering fitted sizes and adjustable closure types
6. Quantity and pricing with transparent cost breakdowns
7. Special instructions for unique requests or design notes

The form uses conditional logic to show relevant options based on previous answers—for example, if someone selects embroidery, they'll see thread color options; if they choose screen printing, ink color options appear instead.

Collect eSignatures for Artwork Approval with Papersign

Custom orders often require artwork approval before production begins. With Papersign, you can turn submissions into approval documents and collect legally binding eSignatures from customers, ensuring everyone agrees on the final design before you start production. This creates a clean audit trail and protects you from disputes about what was ordered.

Built for Customization and Your Brand

Every custom cap business is different. Paperform's doc-style editor makes it easy to adapt this template:

The form can live on your website as an embed, function as a standalone landing page on your custom domain, or be shared directly with wholesale clients.

From Order to Production, All Connected

This template integrates seamlessly with the tools promotional product and apparel businesses already use:

• CRM systems like HubSpot or Pipedrive to track customer orders
