Meanwhile, we already had the printing kit to put anything anyone could draw onto a real, durable, indoor-outdoor mat.<\/p>\n<p>So we built Mad Mats to be exactly that: <strong>your designs, our presses, on your floor<\/strong>. And because we couldn&#8217;t help ourselves, we added the side-hustle twist &mdash; every design uploaded to the site becomes a buyable product, and the original designer earns a $28&ndash;$90 rebate every time someone else buys it.<\/p>\n\n<h2>What you can do here<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Design your own mad mat<\/strong> &mdash; use the designer, pick a size, we print and post it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Earn 20% rebate<\/strong> &mdash; once your design lands in the gallery, every future sale earns you $28 to $90 depending on size.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Just want to sell designs?<\/strong> Upload your artwork for $20 a design (no need to buy a mat). You still earn the rebate when it sells.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Browse the gallery<\/strong> &mdash; if you find a design you love, buy it &mdash; and you&#8217;ll be sending a few dollars to the person who made it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2>Made in Australia<\/h2>\n<p>Mad Mats are printed at our Melbourne facility. Currently shipping Australia-wide, with overseas shipping in the works (we already have international production capacity through our partner factory in China).<\/p>\n\n<h2>Our promise<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Hard-wearing materials &mdash; indoor\/outdoor rated, fade-resistant inks.<\/li>\n<li>Photographic print quality at any size.<\/li>\n<li>Real, automated payouts to designers via Stripe.<\/li>\n<li>Responsive support &mdash; reply within one business day.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<div class=\"contact\"><h3>Get in touch<\/h3>Owner: Martin Stobnic, Mats R Us Group<br>Email: <a href=\"mailto:martin@matsrus.com.au\">martin@matsrus.com.au<\/a><br>Address: 37 Victory Road, Airport West VIC 3042<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About Mad Mats Mad Mats is for people who think doormats should make people smile.
