It’s simple to launch a successful sock presale with Team Feet:

  1. Design Your Socks
    Work with us to create a custom design your members will love.

    Choose your unit price (must be at RRP or higher) and campaign duration. We recommend at least two weeks to maximize sales.
  3. We Build Your Campaign Page
    We’ll create a branded page showcasing your socks, complete with a progress bar to motivate your audience. You can also add extra text and images to help promote the campaign.
  4. Promote to Your Members
    Share the campaign link via email, social media, and word of mouth.
  5. Members Place Their Orders Online
    Each purchase counts toward your campaign goal. No bulk ordering or stock management needed.
  6. Campaign Closes – You Earn Commission
    Once the campaign ends, your commission is calculated based on total pairs sold:

    60 pairs – 20% commission
    100 pairs – 25% commission
    150+ pairs - 30% commission
  7. We Produce & Ship Your Socks
    We manufacture the socks and send them to you along with an order sheet for easy distribution.
  8. You Deliver the Socks
    Hand out the socks to your excited members and enjoy the club’s profits.

Your commission is based on the total number of pairs sold during your campaign:

  • 30–59 pairs: No commission (but still no upfront costs)
  • 60 pairs: 20% commission
  • 100 pairs: 25% commission
  • 150+ pairs: 30% commission

When will we get paid?
Commissions are paid within 14 days after your campaign closes and socks have been shipped.

How do we get paid?
After your campaign ends, you’ll receive a Campaign Summary showing total sales, revenue, and your commission amount.

To release payment, simply send us an invoice for the commission amount shown on the summary.

Why do we have to send an invoice?
We require an invoice to:

  • Create a clear record for both parties
  • Ensure payments are processed quickly and correctly
  • Keep things compliant for GST (where applicable) and accounting purposes
  • If your club isn’t GST-registered, just add “Not registered for GST” to your invoice.

Can we trust that we’ll receive our commission?
Absolutely. We’ve been running presale campaigns for years and pride ourselves on reliable payouts.

✅ You’ll receive a Campaign Summary with full breakdowns.

✅ Payments are processed within 14 days of invoice receipt.

✅ Our team is always available to answer questions.

Our presale platform is designed to work with or without a fundraising component, giving you full flexibility in how you use it.

Basic Presale:
Minimum order of 30 pairs. No commission applies, but you still get all the benefits of a hassle-free campaign with no upfront costs.

Sock-Funding (Fundraising Presale):
Minimum order of 60 pairs. Your club earns commission based on the total pairs sold:

60 pairs – 20% commission
100 pairs – 25% commission
150+ pairs – 30% commission

You can also boost your fundraising by setting a higher unit price or aiming for a larger campaign goal, increasing your club’s earnings even further.

Sockfunding campaigns are primarily reserved for clubs and other not-for-profit associations, however we're always happy to discuss your needs.

We do not offer this service for wholesale customers.

Shipping is free.

All socks are batched and shipped to you, or a specified shipping location, along with an order spreadsheet for distribution to your members.

We do not ship socks directly to your members.

Absolutely! You have full control over your campaign, including:

1. Campaign duration
2. Unit price
3. Campaign goal (number of pairs)
4. Messaging

If your campaign falls short of the target, there are a few options:

  1. We can extend the campaign period to give you more time to reach your goal.
  2. You can choose to end the campaign as is. We’ll produce the socks and pay any applicable commission based on the total pairs sold.
  3. We require your club to fund the shortfall to meet the minimum production quantity. This ensures production can proceed without loss.

Please Note: Presale campaigns are non-refundable. This is because all orders are custom-made specifically for your audience.

Please email presale@teamfeet.com to setup your new campaign.
