For record stores

Six months free, for founding stores.

VinylSonar is a new Canadian app for record collectors. It catalogues a collection and values the specific pressing someone owns — year, country, label, catalogue number — rather than pricing the album as one thing.

The marketplace side only works if there are shops on it, which is why founding stores get a Store account free for six months: your own storefront, unlimited listings, and your shop shown to collectors browsing your area. No card, no obligation when it ends.

Print for your shop

Both carry a QR code that opens VinylSonar. Use them, change them, or ignore them — none of this is a condition of the free account.

Printing larger than the sizes above will look soft — these are sized to the resolution the artwork actually carries. Ask us if you want a bigger version and we'll have one made properly.

Badge for your website

If you have a site and want to show you're on VinylSonar, paste this wherever you keep your footer or links. It links back to us — but please don't add it because you feel you have to. It makes no difference to your free account.

On Shopify, Squarespace or Wix, add it in a page or footer block set to “custom HTML” / “embed code”. If that's not something you do, send this to whoever looks after your site — or reply and we'll help.

We link back to you

The other half of the badge above. Put it up and your shop goes on our partners page with a link straight to your own website — not to a page inside our app. No fee, no exclusivity, and either of us can stop at any time.

What a Store account gives you

Honest caveat: VinylSonar is new, and there aren't many collectors on it yet. Founding stores are how that changes, and what you tell us shapes what gets built next.
