Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum order quantity for custom footballs?
300 pieces per design and colourway for hand-stitched, thermal-bonded, hybrid and futsal balls, and 500 pieces for machine-stitched promotional balls.
How long does football production take?
Sampling takes 10–15 days. Bulk production runs 24–26 days after you approve the pre-production sample in writing, plus transit time for your chosen shipping mode.
Which football construction should we choose?
Thermal-bonded for match-grade performance and the lowest water uptake, hand-stitched for traditional feel and control, hybrid for a mid-price balance of feel and durability, and machine-stitched for the best per-piece cost on promotional and high-volume training balls.
Can you manufacture footballs under our own brand?
Yes. Private-label production carries your brand only — your logo, colourway, packaging, hangtag and barcode. Findup Sports branding does not appear on private-label goods.
Do you make footballs to FIFA standards?
We build to the performance benchmarks used in professional ball testing — weight, circumference, sphericity, rebound, water absorption and pressure retention — and can arrange independent laboratory testing at buyer request. Findup Sports is not a FIFA licensee and does not issue FIFA marks.
How can we verify Findup Sports before placing an order?
Three independent registries can be checked: NTN 7153226-1 with the Federal Board of Revenue Pakistan, REX PK71532261 with the European Commission Registered Exporter validator, and SCCI Membership A-85244 with the Sialkot Chamber of Commerce & Industry. Findup Sports is also enrolled in the Child Labour Elimination Programme via SCCI and CSDO under reference MSCCI/0401/6/CSDO, files all exports through Pakistan Single Window, and receives payments only through Meezan Bank Limited.
Is our design and artwork kept confidential?
Yes. Artwork, tech packs, patterns and moulds supplied by a buyer are used only for that buyer's production. We sign NDAs on request, and buyer-developed designs are never offered to other customers or shown in our public catalogue without written permission.
