What Amazon Merch on Demand is
Amazon Merch on Demand is a web-based print-on-demand service for creating and selling merchandise. Creators upload artwork, select product types and colors in the Creator Dashboard, and use design templates while Amazon creates the product page. Products are made after a customer orders, with global fulfillment and eligibility for Prime shipping. Sellers can apply custom branding and offer merchandise through up to seven Amazon storefronts: Amazon.com, Amazon.co.jp, Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, Amazon.it, and Amazon.es. Artists can add merchandise to Amazon Music artist pages and connect it with Bandsintown artist pages. Promotion may use an app, blog, or social media. Revenue comes from royalties on each item sold, calculated from the offer price after applicable tax and Amazon’s costs, with the amount also depending on the recommended selling price and base product. The service is free, has no upfront costs or recurring monthly subscription, and is non-exclusive when design rights and other agreements permit.
