I have used Etsy, Amazon, and Redbubble. I think these are the most popular platforms when it comes to doing print-on-demand business. Amazon and Redbubble are completely free. You will be charged only when your products get ordered. Therefore, there is no upfront cost. However, Etsy charges listing fees as well as sales commissions. Redbubble and Amazon have their own printing services. You can not only use them as print providers but also sell your products, however, etsy is only a marketplace, in order to sell print-on-demand products on etsy, you will have to use third-party print providers like Printful and Printify.
