Do I Have to Pay to License Beats on Rapchat?
Do I Have to Pay to License Beats on Rapchat?
Updated over a week ago

You can use Rapchat to record and share your music without needing to pay for licenses. However, if you want to monetize your music or distribute it on streaming platforms such as Spotify, you will need to purchase a license.

The only exception to this is when a beat is marked Distro Eligible. Then you can release that song to streaming platforms through Rapchat Distro. See more here: What are "Distro Beats"?

Many producers will include a "Buy Beat" link in the beat details that will connect you to their beats store. However if no Buy Beat link is included you should contact them via DM. We also suggest you look at their socials links as many will list their beat store there.

To purchase a license, simply go to the beat and click "buy beat" or send a direct message to the producer. Keep in mind that licensing requirements may vary depending on the producer and the specific beat, so be sure to read and follow any licensing agreements provided by the producer.

By purchasing a license, you ensure that you have the legal right to use the beat in your music and can monetize or distribute it as desired. If you have any questions or concerns about licensing on Rapchat, feel free to reach out to our support team for assistance.
