What you’ll need

  • A Patchline account (sign up).

  • A banner image (1500×500 recommended) — can be added later.

Step-by-step

1

Open the Store dashboard

Sidebar → Store/dashboard/store.
2

Connect Stripe

Click Connect Stripe. Standard Stripe Connect flow:
  • Existing Stripe account: sign in, approve Patchline as a connected app. ~2 min.
  • New Stripe account: create one through Stripe’s flow (business info, bank account, tax info). ~5–10 min.
3

Pick your slug

Your storefront URL is patchline.ai/store/<slug>. Pick something short and brandable — mira-music, runhot, velvetbird. Slugs are unique platform-wide.
4

Add products

Inventory → + Add product. For each product:
  • Pick a track from your catalog (or upload a new one)
  • Set product type: single track / album / stems / merch (text-only for v1, no shipping)
  • Set price (fixed or pay-what-you-want with optional minimum)
  • Optionally add a description, behind-the-scenes asset, signed cover art
5

Set up your banner + bio

Storefront → Customize:
  • Banner image (1500×500 recommended, JPG/PNG)
  • Short bio (under 200 chars)
  • Profile photo (uses your roster artist photo by default)
  • Social links (IG, TikTok, YouTube, etc.)
6

Preview + publish

Preview opens your store URL in a new tab. When it looks right, flip the Live toggle.
7

Share the link

patchline.ai/store/<your-slug>. Drop in your Linktree, bio, socials, email signature. The link auto-generates an OG image for social previews.

Embedding on your own site

The embed widget lets you drop a product into any HTML page:
<iframe
  src="https://patchline.ai/store/<your-slug>/embed/<asset-id>"
  width="100%"
  height="420"
  frameborder="0"
></iframe>
The embed renders the product card + a buy button that opens checkout in a popup. Works on Squarespace, Webflow, Wix, plain HTML, or anywhere iframes are allowed.

Reordering products

Inventory → drag-and-drop to reorder. The order on your storefront follows the inventory order.
