BANDcore

Creator Owned Revenue Engine

Your CORE solutions for your rock 'n' roll lifestyle

You sold $4,000 in merch last night.

Where did it go?

You don't know how many hoodies you have left. You don't know if your boothtender shorted you. You can't name a single fan who bought something. You stuffed cash in a backpack and hoped for the best.

You spent 10 years learning to play. You spent zero minutes learning to run a business at your merch table.

That's not your fault. Nobody built the tools for you. Square doesn't know what a setlist is. Shopify doesn't work in a dark venue at 1am. And the guy running your merch booth? He's your drummer's roommate doing it for free beer.

What if your merch table had a back office?

What if you could see every sale in real time from the stage? What if fans paid on their own phone and you never needed a card reader? What if your biggest fans carried a scrapbook of every show and you could message them from backstage?

What if you ran your band like a boss?

How It Works

1

Load Your Merch

Snap a photo of each item. Our AI reads it — name, category, size — and logs it instantly. Set your price, enter your cost basis, and your inventory is live. No barcodes. No SKU spreadsheets. Camera in, merch out.

2

Hire Your Boothtender

Your friend, your roadie, your partner — anyone can run your booth. They log in with a 4-digit code. Tap the item, tap the size, show the fan the QR. Done. They don't need to know your margins. They just need thumbs.

3

Fans Pay On Their Own Phone

Fan scans the QR code. Pays on their phone — Card, Venmo, Zelle, or Cash. No card reader. No dongle. No “do you have Square?” The fan's phone IS the payment terminal.

4

Capture Every Fan

After checkout, every fan gets an invite to Encore — a personal scrapbook of every show. Autographs, photos, setlists, merch receipts. You get their email and phone. They get a reason to come back. That's not a transaction — that's a relationship.

5

Watch It All From Stage

Every sale hits your dashboard in real time. Running total. Items sold. Fans captured. Low stock alerts. When the set ends, your P&L is already done — gross, cost of goods, boothtender pay, take-home. You never touch a spreadsheet.

Why Not Square? Why Not Shopify?

X

They take a cut of every sale.

BANDcore charges a flat subscription. We never touch your revenue. You keep 100% of what you earn.

X

They need hardware at the table.

Card readers break. Batteries die. iPads get beer on them. BANDcore runs on the phone you already have — and fans pay on theirs.

X

They don't capture fans.

A sale ends at the register. Ours ends with Encore — a fan scrapbook, a Flash message from the crowd, a reason to come back next tour.

X

They don't know what sold in Denver.

BANDcore remembers every city. What moved, what didn't, what you ran out of. Next time you play that market, you show up ready.

Flat monthly rate. No transaction fees. No cut of your sales. Ever.
