Frequently asked questions
Does Home Crowd replace our current athletic apparel provider?+
Not necessarily. Home Crowd can operate as a school's primary spiritwear store or as a lifestyle apparel collection alongside an existing athletics/uniform provider.
How much does our school receive?+
25% of qualifying merchandise sales.
Is it cash or merchandise credit?+
The Home Crowd model is intended to provide a monetary payout to the participating school rather than requiring the school to spend its earnings on additional Home Crowd merchandise.
Does the school buy inventory?+
No.
Who fulfills orders?+
Orders are produced and fulfilled through approved third-party production partners.
Can we use our school logo and mascot?+
Home Crowd only uses school names, logos, mascots and other protected marks with appropriate authorization.
Can we see what sells?+
Yes. Sales performance and product-level reporting are fundamental to the Home Crowd model.
What happens to products that don't sell?+
We use performance data to refine future collections rather than keeping poorly performing products indefinitely.
