Terms of use

Last updated 10 November 2026

Stencil Bench is provided by Hidden City Tattoo Pty Ltd (ABN 87 654 468 023), 8/4 Kingfisher Drive, Peregian Beach QLD 4573. By signing in you agree to these terms.

What Stencil Bench does

Stencil Bench uses an AI image service to redraw a picture you send as tattoo stencil line art, then lets you clean it up and save it. AI drawings vary from one attempt to the next and can miss, add or change details. Always check a stencil against the original before you use it on skin. You are responsible for the stencils you use.

Prices and credit

• You pay for stencils from prepaid credit, bought in Australian dollars. Prices include GST.
• The price of each stencil is shown before you make it and in the credit panel. It is 30c plus four times what the AI drawing costs us, so it can change when our costs change. We'll show any new price before you make a stencil at it.
• Every attempt is a stencil, including Try again.
• New accounts get 3 free Standard stencils, or 1 free Fine detail stencil (a Fine detail stencil uses 3 of the free ones). One set of free stencils per person.
• Credit never expires.
• If a stencil fails to come back, the credit for it is returned to your balance automatically.
• You can ask for a refund of unused credit you paid for at any time by emailing us; we refund it to the card you paid with.
• Nothing in these terms limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.

Tees and caps

• Classic tees are printed and posted by Printful; premium and kids tees by The Print Bar (through Printify). All three print in Australia.
• Trucker caps are embroidered by Printful overseas and take about 4 weeks to arrive. Embroidery is stitched in up to 6 thread colours, so fine lines and shading are simplified.
• The artist chooses the price (shown before paying); it includes GST and postage within Australia.
• Each tee is made to order from the artwork the artist laid out, so check the preview before ordering. If a tee arrives faulty or misprinted, email us with a photo and we'll replace or refund it.
• Only put artwork on a tee that you have the right to print.

Your tee earnings

• When a tee you made is paid for, you earn 60% of the profit on it; Hidden City Tattoo keeps 40%. The profit is the price less GST, the card fee and the printer's charge for that tee.
• Earnings show in the credit panel. You can turn any amount into stencil credit, or ask for a bank transfer once you have $50 or more. We pay transfers within 7 days of getting your bank details.
• If a tee is refunded or charged back, its earnings are taken back from your earnings.
• You're responsible for any tax on what you earn. If you have an ABN, we may ask for an invoice.

Invites

• Your invite link gives you and the artist you invite $5 of stencil credit each, once they sign up through it and make their first top-up.
• Invites are for other artists. The bonus isn't paid when the new account is paid for with your card, or with a card that has already earned an invite bonus; we may hold or cancel bonuses that look like misuse.
• Bonus credit is for stencils and isn't refunded as money.
• For as long as an artist you invited sells tees through Stencil Bench, you earn 10% of the profit on each of their tees, added to your tee earnings. Hidden City Tattoo pays it from its own share; the seller still gets their 60%.
• It's one level only: you earn on the artists you invite, not on the artists they invite.
• You can't invite yourself. We may hold or cancel invite commission where the two accounts share a card or bank account, or where it looks like misuse, and recover commission already paid on that basis.

Your pictures

• Only send pictures you have the right to use. Don't send anything unlawful.
• You keep whatever rights you have in your pictures and in the stencils made from them. We don't claim any.
• Pictures are processed in the United States by fal.ai and OpenAI, as explained in our privacy notice. The AI service may refuse some pictures; you aren't charged when it does.

Fair use

Accounts are for one person. There is a daily limit of 100 stencils per account. We may pause an account that is being misused, shared, or used to resell the service; if we close your account we refund your unused credit.

Availability

We aim to keep Stencil Bench running but can't promise it will always be available or error-free. The AI service it relies on is run by other companies.

Changes

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. Big changes will be shown in the app before they apply.
