Belmont Batcave is an independent alternative store and vendor collective in Belmont, North Carolina. Dozens of makers, collectors and vintage dealers keep booths under one roof, and this app is the whole shop in your pocket. BROWSE WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT Look through everything on the floor without signing up for anything. Most of what we sell is one of a kind, so what you see is what is left of it. BUY WHAT YOU FIND Check out with Apple Pay or a card. Every vendor ships their own goods, so an order from two booths arrives as two parcels. EARN POINTS WHEN YOU SHOP Joining the rewards program is free and gets you a member card that lives in the app. Show its barcode at the register and your purchase earns points, even when there is no signal in the shop. Points are earned on what you spend, in person or in the app, and every reward is a real thing you collect at the counter. TALK TO THE PEOPLE WHO MADE IT Message a vendor about a piece before you buy it: how big it really is, what the marks are, whether they have another one. Leave a review after an order lands. FOLLOW THE BOOTHS YOU LIKE Follow your favorites, save the pieces you are still thinking about, and see what they put out next. KEEP TRACK OF IT ALL Your orders, your points history and your saved addresses, in one place. The shop is at 2603 Boundary St, Belmont NC, open seven days. Come see us.
