FAQ: music license for events
Short answers to the most common questions about licensing, invoicing, and download delivery.
1) Do I need a music license for my event?
Public performance generally requires clear licensing. The right model depends on event type, duration, and usage.
2) Is royalty-free music really royalty-free?
At Audiocrowd, royalty-free means licensed uses do not require additional PRO administration for Audiocrowd titles. Always check specific license terms for edge cases.
3) Do I need to register my event additionally?
This depends on the specific scenario. For special cases, our team and navigator help with classification.
4) How fast do I receive the files?
Individual tracks are available immediately after payment. Playlist ZIPs are generated in the background and are typically ready within minutes.
5) Do I get an invoice for accounting?
Yes. Invoices and license documents are available in your customer account at any time.
6) May I use the music multiple times?
The exact scope depends on the selected license. For recurring or extended use, choose the appropriate license tier.
7) What is the difference compared to streaming services?
Streaming subscriptions are usually not licensed for compliant public or commercial playback. Audiocrowd provides explicit license models for these cases.
8) What if date/location/audience size changes?
If details change, we help verify whether your existing license still fits or should be adjusted.
