Frequently asked questions
Merch (short for merchandise): products intended for selling to fans or another specific target audience. Any business can call their products merch, but people normally use this term regarding items sold by musicians, influencers, and other celebrities.
If you want to create a stand-alone website for your store that you can fully customize, we recommend ecommerce platforms like Shopify, Wix, and others. These platforms have pre-made templates specifically for online stores.
If you want something that’s a little less maintenance, you can go for a storefront on an ecommerce marketplace like Etsy, Amazon, or eBay. A marketplace works like a shopping mall—customers go to one place to visit multiple stores. While your competition will be more visible to your fans here, you’ll also have a better chance of getting discovered.
You also need to consider your creative platform (YouTube, Twitch, or others). Check if ecommerce solution has the option to connect your creative platform with your store.
We recommend selling t-shirts, hoodies, accessories, and tote bags for your audience. While we offer 427 customizable products, t-shirts and hoodies are some of the popular merch items for celebrities and influencers.
