  • Game Changer

    Merch sales on the road became so much easier once my band started using this app. It also makes fulfilling merch orders from home a breeze. So many useful features (my fave is how easy it is for fans to preorder merch and then skip the merch line to pick it up at the show). The creator of this app clearly cares about music and merch so working with them definitely feels like a more personalized experience. They go the extra mile, which is always a plus! 10/10 recommend.

  • Game changer!

    We started using Merch Cat for our merch sales at live shows recently and couldn't be happier. It's so easy to keep track of inventory, especially with being able to count in and out for each show directly in the app. It integrates with both Square and PayPal seamlessly for taking payment super easily. They also show you metrics and reports so you can easily see what your top sellers are, broken out by show, city, and even venue. This truly is the app we were looking for to organize and streamline our merch selling workflow, and they clearly care about bringing value to the artists while putting out a quality app. Highly recommend!

  • Merch Cat = Game Changer

    As a 100% independent folk singer, I run my own merch table every night. Every musician knows that THIS is where the money comes from on the road. I’ve tried spreadsheets (printed and on computer), I’ve tried Square inventory (what does it even mean), and am always looking for ways to make the process of inventory easier on and off the road.

    About a year ago I started selling a shirt that sold REALLY well. I offer it in Tee and racer back tank. I’m mainly touring as a support act, so my merch table size is limited. This means I don’t have the advantage of spreading out a whole lot of multiple shirt sizes on the table. The inventory function on Merch Cat is a GAME CHANGER. I can quickly see exactly how many shirts I have in each size for each show without having to dig in my bag if I’m having a great night at the table. Here’s another reason why I love the Merch Cat inventory function…

    Over the past two years, I’ve spent over 600 nights in hotel rooms. The last thing I want to do when I’m home is re-count my home and road inventory. Due to the volume at the table, it’s easy to forget to track a comp item (which I still do by a hand tally and enter into Merch Cat). Merch Cat also makes it easy to sell items at a discounted price for a super fan, fellow musician, bartender, etc.. So, the inventory stays updated and the sale reports are accurate. Finally, without much hassle, I now know EXACTLY what I have on hand and in stock without question. When you’re doing a lot of fly dates, this really matters - because you can’t just have the whole back of a van stocked with tons of merch. Every pound counts. The inventory reports and tracking makes my life so much easier.

    There was a tiny bit of a learning curve with me for the app, but Vanessa quickly responded to every single question I had via email. She even made time to call me! Who does that? Merch Cat… that’s who. I highly recommend this app to any musician working hard out there on the road. It helps me to run my table without stress. If I reach the point where I have a dedicated TM or Merch person, I can pass this tool along to that person for easy sales and accountability.

  • THE tool for gigging musicians

    Merch Cat is hands down the best app I’ve come across for managing and SELLING merch. Merch Cat is easy to use because it’s extremely visual and simply designed. I love being able to actually see the merch items while I’m managing inventory and making transactions. The more organized you are, the more likely you are to actually sell your merch. Merch Cat helps you make money by making the merch side of gigging easy and letting you focus on creating meaningful connections with your customers. Also the customer assistance is unreal - I received help within hours of sending an email and the issue was resolved within 24 hours - a MUST when touring on the road. If you’re a touring musician, you need to get Merch Cat.
