Selected from Shopify’s own Dropshipping sub-category, so the comparison is like-for-like. The one-line descriptions are each vendor’s App Store tagline, quoted as written.
Printify is the direct comparison. It runs a network of third-party printers rather than its own facilities, which is why its pricing is usually lower and its consistency more variable.
Gelato is worth a look if your customers are outside the US, since it prints locally in more countries. That advantage disappears entirely if you sell mostly domestically.
Ranking method, the review floor and how paid placement is kept separate are explained once on how ranking works. Short version: review data sets the order, money never does.
