Provider Network

Keep the presses
running.

Join paperboy as a print provider, then keep onboarding moving with a tracked customer link, shop-window assets, and stronger reward economics when referred or loyal customers come back through your shop.

Accept/reject control. Capacity controls. Clear handoff + tracking.

Why providers join

Demand
More local demand, fewer dead ends
Start with routed jobs, then use your tracked link and QR assets to bring walk-ins and repeat customers back through your shop.
Fees
Clear path to stronger rewards
Paperboy adds a customer-side fee based on the order and market. Referred or loyalty-qualified fulfilled orders can credit more of that fee back to your shop.
Growth
Onboarding continues after signup
Open the Growth hub to print your shop-window poster, share your link, and track invited-shop 0-fee milestones without changing your day-to-day print workflow.

How it works

You stay in control. We handle routing, referral tracking, and the customer entry path; you handle production, availability, and the fulfillment methods your shop actually supports.

Start onboarding
01

Create your provider profile

Add your first location, capabilities, and operational details so Paperboy can route the right work to your shop.

02

Receive jobs and keep repeat customers attached

Jobs are proposed based on proximity, capability, and capacity. After signup, keep activation going by sharing your tracked link and counter QR with customers who already trust your shop.

03

Print, fulfil, and use the Growth hub

Progress the job state as you work, then open Growth to print your shop-window poster, keep staff aligned on the reward story, and invite other shops through the separate referral path.

What we ask of providers

If we’re going to sell reliability, we need reliable partners. The goal is simple: fewer misprints, fewer disputes, and better repeat rates for everyone.

Quality control

Basic print checks, correct paper stock, and clean packaging. The platform works best when quality is consistent.

Operational honesty

Keep your capacity and hours accurate so jobs aren’t routed into impossible windows.

Fast acceptance

Accept or reject quickly. Speed keeps customers happy and keeps routing fair.

Make your shop the default printer for your neighborhood.

Turn idle capacity into routed demand, then reinforce it with referral links, shop-window assets, and a truthful reward story customers and staff can understand.
