It’s Legal
Businesses are required to pay royalty fees to artists anytime music is played in a public space. Avoid fines or lawsuits by using a business music service, which covers fees for content licensing (globally) and performing rights organization (North America only).
Research your music provider
Music for Business Finder is a valuable service allowing customers to compare and contrast various business music services as well as learning about the dangers of using illegal residential services.
Find the right music service and licenses for your business
How you use music in your business determines which licenses you need, and the requirements are easy to get wrong. Consumer services like Spotify, Amazon Music, and Apple Music are licensed for personal use only. Playing them in a business violates those terms and can trigger fines from Performing Rights Organizations (PROs).
Licensed business music services handle PRO royalty payments on your behalf. Live music, DJs, and karaoke each require separate licenses from the four major PROs: ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, and GMR, regardless of whether performers are paid.
Music Fines & What They Cost
Playing unlicensed music in your business is a federal copyright violation. The fine starts at $750 per song. See real enforcement cases from restaurants, and other small businesses. The risk is real.
