Amazon Music brings Artist Merch Shop to mobile app
Amazon Music is bringing the collections found in the Amazon Music Artist Merch Shop to the Amazon Music mobile app in the US.
Fans can now shop for merchandise and physical music – the majority of which is available with Prime shipping – while listening to music.
In addition to featuring exclusive artist merch drops, the Amazon Music Artist Merch Shop also connects fans with festival and artist tour merch, spotlights trending best sellers, and gives fans the ability to shop by price, genre, era, and more.
To help celebrate today’s launch, Amazon Music has added exclusive merch collections from Lizzo, Imagine Dragons, and The Notorious B.I.G.
There is also a limited-edition jacket designed and signed by streetwear icon Jeff Hamilton honoring the legacy of Juice WRLD as well as exclusive Twelve Carat Toothache merchandise from Post Malone.
More Amazon Merch Options
Overall, Amazon Music offers more ways for all artists to sell merch than its streaming competitors. Spotify allows artists to connect to a Shopify store, while Amazon enables artists to take advantage of the full Amazon ecosystem, including Prime delivery and options like print on demand.
