Merch Mates is an independent, fan-led home for pop culture and fandom, based in the UK.
Merch Mates started in 2021 to cover the films, shows, games and franchises we were already obsessed with. It's grown into a publication covering film, TV, music, gaming, fandom and the Disney parks, with reviews, rankings, guides and features.
We're fans first. No media group or studio sets our agenda, so we write about what we genuinely care about and take the time to get it right. A well-researched piece matters more to us than a fast one, though we're publishing more often than ever.
The full rules are in our Editorial Standards.
