Benefits

Sell more than a stream. A TapTunes™ NFC card is a product fans buy and keep, not a fraction-of-a-cent play.
Healthy margins. Starter pack is $99 for 25 cards (≈ $3.96 per card). Reorders start as low as $2.75 per card.
Flexible pricing power. Many indie artists comfortably price at $10–$20 per card as premium merch or part of a bundle.
Fast break-even (examples):
- At $10 sale price → margin ≈ $6.04 per card → 17 cards to recoup your $99.
- At $15 sale price → margin ≈ $11.04 per card → 9 cards to recoup your $99.
- At $20 sale price → margin ≈ $16.04 per card → 7 cards to recoup your $99.
Upsells & bundles. Bundle cards with tees, stickers, lyric sheets, or VIP perks to lift average order value.

Faster transactions. A clear, physical item is easier to explain and sell than “stream me later.”
Signable souvenir. Autograph the card, fans love personalized keepsakes.
Small footprint, easy to pack. Carry hundreds of units in a backpack, no crates, no shipping headaches.
Great for street teams. Hand to tastemakers, radio shows, venue staff, and influencers, professional and memorable.

Ship small, store anywhere. Low weight and size reduce fulfillment pain and costs compared to vinyl.
Great for preorders and special drops. Tease a new release with limited-run cards; incentivize early supporters.
Wholesale options. Perfect for indie record shops, coffee houses, and boutique retailers looking for local-artist merch.

Your art, your branding. Full-bleed cover artwork turns each card into a mini-billboard for your music.
Editioning. Mark runs by city/date/tour, fans who follow you will want the whole set.
Gifting potential. Cards make a killer gift item, easy to wrap, easy to mail, instantly delightful to use.

Reduce platform dependency. Don’t pin your income on an algorithm; sell directly to your audience.
Immediate discovery at shows. Convert casual listeners into buyers on the spot, right after a performance.
Fan relationship. The card itself becomes a conversation piece and a memory tied to your live moment.

NFC = familiar behavior. Tap-to-pay made tapping second nature; fans understand the action instantly.
Durable format. Cards are tougher than optical discs and don’t scratch like CDs.
Future-proof concept. As phones evolve, NFC remains a core interaction, your merch stays relevant.

CDs: Most fans don’t have drives; perception feels dated.
Vinyl: Great vibe, but expensive, heavy to ship, and limited audience.
Only-streaming: Convenient, but low payouts; nothing tangible to sell at your table.
TapTunes™: Affordable, modern, instantly playable, and something fans can hold.

Make more per fan than streaming ever will.
