LoginPOD is built for efficiency, flexibility, and quality. Located in Winnipeg, LoginPOD is the only Print on Demand service located within an already established Canadian book distribution facility.

We offer:

• Book-of-One and Short-Run production
• Perfect Bound, Hardcover, Dust Jackets, Coil Binding, and more
• 3–5 business day turnaround (B2B and B2C)
• Manufactured using sustainably sourced materials
• Powered by Publishers' Graphics, with 29 years of print excellence
• This partnership offers a Global Distribution Network

Carrying unnecessary book inventory ties up capital and inflates warehousing costs. This is why more publishers are shifting toward zero-inventory or hybrid inventory models.

At Login, we help you:

• Align production with actual demand
• Reduce environmental waste and your carbon footprint
• Improve turnaround times and customer satisfaction
• Maximize cash flow through smarter replenishment

Whether you need just-in-time production or a stock strategy, we'll work with you to find the right balance.

The Benefits Are Clear:

• Less unsold inventory
• More flexibility
• Sustainability
• Freight Savings
• Visibility in Canada = Increased Sales

Not every title is the same—so our POD program isn't one size fits all. We offer flexible service levels by title. Custom workflows are tailored to each ISBN, based on publisher approval and print compatibility.

1. Direct-to-Print Titles

• Titles go directly into production as needed via a special PO—skipping manual ordering
• Ideal for backlist or long-tail titles that don't require warehousing

2. Standard Titles

• Fulfilled by the publisher through the regular ordering process

➤ Visibility and Availability Advantages of Direct to Print Titles

Direct-to-Print Titles benefit from enhanced visibility across major Canadian book platforms:

• lb.ca and 150+ Affiliate eStores:
• Displays as: "This book can be printed in-house and shipped in 3–5 business days."
• Indigo.ca:
  • Displays as "Available Online"
• Bookmanager (used by most independent bookstores for purchasing):
• Displays as QPOD status, meaning Quick Print on Demand: Ships in 3–5 business days
• Amazon.ca:
• Real-time availability status prevents order rejections due to stock shortages, and stimulates increased purchases

Whether you're managing a deep backlist, launching a new imprint, or scaling distribution into Canada, LoginPOD offers a seamless, Canadian-made solution to keep your books available, visible, and selling.

• Faster service for Canadian customers
• Fewer manual orders and customs documents
• Reduced returns from over-ordering
• Smarter replenishment means fewer risks for bookstores
