No problem! Every new account automatically gets a free Monophonic.site URL that looks like this: yourband.monophonic.siteYou can use this subdomain as long as you want, and add your custom domain whenever you’re ready. Many artists start with the free subdomain and add their own domain later.

Monophonic isn’t a full e-commerce platform, but you can easily link to external stores where you sell merch, music, or tickets. Most artists link to Bandcamp, Big Cartel, Shopify, or their label’s store. The Merch section makes it easy to showcase products with links to buy.

Great question! Monophonic includes a Links feature similar to Linktree and other services like that, so you can make a dedicated “links” page with as many links as you like.While link-in-bio tools just give you a list of links, Monophonic provides a full website with sections for music, videos, shows, photos, and more. Think of it as Linktree + a full band website, all in one affordable package.
Yes! One account can manage up to 5 sites, which is handy if you’re in a couple of bands, run a side project, or look after several artists.Your first site is included in your subscription. Each additional site is $3.99/month or $39.99/year. Use the site switcher in the top navigation to create a new site and to move between the ones you have.Every site is completely separate, with its own content, design, domain, and analytics. See the Multi-Site guide for the details, and email support@monophonic.io if you need more than 5.
Purple was good enough for Prince so it’s good enough for us.
