You can start Print-On-Demand on Amazon, it is called Merch By Amazon. It is a free program, however, Amazon is a competitive market, so it might be difficult to sell. Having said that Amazon is also the biggest market, which means you can manage to find customers if you do SEO and digital marketing, including Amazon paid ads.

Etsy is also a high-traffic ecommerce marketplace where you can sell Print-On-Demand products. However, selling cost on Etsy tends to be higher, you will have to pay listing fees, sales commission and payment processing fees. Your expenses will be higher if you are using Etsy Paid Ads. However, the major benefit of selling Print-On-Demand on Etsy is you can integrate a lot of print providers thus you will have multiple options.

eBay is another popular marketplace for selling Print-On-Demand items. Price on eBay tends to be lower than in other markets, however, generally speaking, Print-On-Demand products are a little expensive. Therefore selling on eBay can be difficult.
