Making money to make music
Are you ready to drop your next track but don’t have the budget for studio time, merch, and a professional music video?
At Pitz, we want to empower artists by enabling them to create music with ZERO FINANCIAL RISK. The Pitz Merch Challenge is a brand new concept that places the power of creativity back into the hands of the artist.
How it works
It’s simple. You Pre-Sell t-shirts that will be printed with your artist name and social media handle or your own design, hit the targets of Level 1, 2 or 3 and UNLOCK exclusive discounts & rewards from Pitz. The tees are only printed once you have enough deposits from your fans.
Our 14 Day Merch Challenge puts you back in control of creating music. Swipe below to see how simple it is to not only make your music for FREE but make your music PAY YOU!

There are 3 levels and various discounts & rewards for you to unlock including 50% OFF Studio Time, Interviews, Photoshoots & Music Videos.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I can’t sell the t-shirts or sell less or more than the targets?
In the case that you cannot pre-sell any t-shirts you lose nothing due to there being no upfront cost. We can also discuss extending the 14-day challenge to provide you extra time. If you just fall short of the level 1 target, don’t worry! You won’t unlock the rewards, but if your supporters still want to purchase the t-shirts, we can generate an invoice and process them for print. Your final option is to simply refund your fans their deposit so that no one loses a penny! In the case that you sell more than the target of a particular level, you gain extra profit plus creep closer to unlocking more rewards from the corresponding levels!
How much do I sell the t-shirts for and when do I pay for them?
You must charge a minimum of £20.00 per t-shirt to your supporters to ensure you cover the printing cost. However, if you feel you can charge more and people are willing to pay more to support you, then go for it! Our printing rates are set based on quantity, We calculate the manufacturing costs and then split all profits directly with you at 50%. We will contact you 14 days after sending you a mock-up of your t-shirt and generate an invoice based on the amount sold via deposits. Disclaimer: A minimum of 3 pre-sales must be made in order for the challenge to go live.
Do I have to pay anything for the merch?
No, they are covered by your supporters’ deposits. You hold the deposits until you are ready to pay the printing invoice. The 50% discounted studio rate is redeemable for upto 4 hours after which standard rates apply.
Where will the music video be posted?
The music videos earned through this challenge will be posted directly to the Pitz YouTube channel. We will also send you the full video to upload onto your own platforms as well as snippet reels so that you can promote it. We do not shoot storyboarded or specifically requested visuals within this promotional package but we are happy to have your creative ideas and input. Pitz will provide you with 3 locations to choose from for the backdrop. Videos have a maximum shooting limit of 2 hours. You will keep 100% of any ad revenue unless your video receives a copyright strike.
How much profit do I make?
We split all printing profit with you at 50%. The amount will change depending on the quantity of t-shirts sold, but as an example: selling 10 tees would equal £55 profit directly to you. You may then decide to use this profit on discounted studio time, meaning you haven’t paid a penny upfront.
