School AD approval considerations
Before launching, get athletic department sign-off on:
- Use of school name, mascot, or logo on apparel
- Revenue accounting (does it flow through the booster club, athletic department, or coach's account)
- Approved retail price ranges if district has policies
- Permitted advertising or social channels for the store URL
Booster clubs typically handle the account and revenue flow.

How does this work with multiple coaches sharing access?
One main login with shared password is the typical setup. Multiple coaches can manage products and check sales.

Yes. The store URL can be linked from the school athletic page or program page.
