Licenses University Of Tampa offers.

Each type is its own approval. Most brands start with the standard license and add others once they’re selling.

  • Standard trademark

    The core license to put the school's names and logos on products, in the categories and sales channels you're approved for.

Step by step

Getting your University Of Tampa license.

  1. 01

    Register as a licensee with Affinity

    Create your company profile in the Affinity licensing portal with your business details, product categories and where you sell. Affinity reviews the company before any school sees the request.

  2. 02

    Request University Of Tampa

    Apply for University Of Tampa with a plan written for its fans: the products, the channels, and why your line adds something its current licensees don't. Proof of retail demand, like named retailers or purchase orders, carries the most weight.

  3. 03

    Send insurance and supply-chain documents

    Expect a certificate of insurance with an additional insured endorsement naming the licensor, typically occurrence-based product liability coverage written as dollar figures. You'll also disclose the factories that will make licensed product and confirm your code of conduct.

  4. 04

    Sign the agreement and pay any advance

    Once University Of Tampa approves, you'll sign a license agreement covering your approved categories, channels and royalty rate, and pay any advance due at signing.

  5. 05

    Get every design approved before you produce

    A signed license doesn't clear you to manufacture. Each product category and sales channel is approved separately, and every piece of artwork is submitted and approved before production. Even small color corrections are resubmitted, so the finished product matches what was approved.

  6. 06

    Report royalties on Affinity's schedule

    Report sales and pay royalties through Affinity on the schedule in your agreement, including periods with no sales. Missed reports put approvals and the license itself at risk.

Mistakes that slow University Of Tampa approvals

  • Applying with a generic plan that doesn't mention University Of Tampa.
  • Selling in a channel your agreement doesn't cover.
  • Producing samples or inventory before artwork is approved.
