Wavedd Help Centre
1. What is Wavedd?
The independent music creator marketplace
Wavedd is a multi-vendor marketplace built exclusively for independent music creators. You can sell tracks, sample packs, loops, stems, vocals, mixes, merch and event tickets — all from your own storefront, without the middlemen.
Every sale contributes back to the scene. A portion of platform revenue goes into local City Fund pots that the community can vote on and direct toward music projects in their city.

Back to top5. Uploading audio products
Tracks, loops, stems, vocals, sample packs, instrumentals & mixes
Audio products cover everything from single tracks to full sample packs. Buyers get a waveform preview on the product page and download the file after purchase.
- Dashboard → Products → Add New.
- Choose Audio as the product type.
- Upload your audio file (WAV or MP3) — this is what buyers receive after purchase.
- Fill in the audio metadata: Genre, BPM, Key, Tags, Format.
- Set your price, or mark as Free to offer it as a freebie.
- Choose a category: Tracks, Loops, Stems, Sample Packs, Vocals, Mixes, Freebies.
- Add artwork, title and description, then hit Publish.
Files are stored securely — buyers receive a time-limited download link after purchase. Your audio is never publicly accessible directly.
Back to top6. Creating print-on-demand merch
No stock, no risk — products printed and shipped on demand
Wavedd uses Printful for print-on-demand fulfilment. You never hold stock — products are printed and shipped directly to your buyers when an order is placed.
- Make sure Printful is connected first (see section 8).
- Dashboard → Products → Add New.

- Upload your design — 300 DPI PNG recommended for best print quality.
- Choose your base product (T-shirt, hoodie, mug, poster, tote bag, etc.).
- Select colours and sizes to offer.

- Mockup images are generated automatically by Printful.
- Publish.
7. Selling your own physical products
List and sell merch you produce, stock and ship yourself
As well as print-on-demand, Wavedd supports creators who want to sell their own physical products — limited edition vinyl, handmade items, self-printed tees, zines, art prints, or anything else you produce yourself.
- Dashboard → Products → Add New.
- Select Physical Product as the product type.
- Add your product title, description and photos.
- Set your price and available stock quantity.
- Add any variations if needed (e.g. size, colour).

- Keep your stock quantity up to date — when it hits zero the product shows as out of stock automatically.
- Update the order status to Shipped once dispatched so the buyer knows it's on the way.
- You can add a tracking number to the order for the buyer's reference.

10. City Fund
Community-driven funding for local music scenes
A portion of every transaction on Wavedd contributes to a City Fund pot for the seller's city. These funds are directed by the community toward local music initiatives — studio time, venue support, artist development and more.
- Your store location (set in Store Settings) determines which city pot you contribute to.

- Fund progress and upcoming votes are visible on the City Fund section of the platform.

Audio waveform isn't showing on my product

My print-on-demand merch isn't syncing with Printful
