Selfpaid Music — License Tiers

Know what you're buying.

Proof of purchase

After payment you receive a unique License ID (formatSPM-XXXXXXXXXXXX) tied to your purchase email and the tier you bought. Keep both. If anyone challenges your right to use the track, this is your proof.

Shared across every tier

Edit, loop, trim, remix, layer, and modify the track to fit your project.
Use it forever — no renewal, no expiration.
Never register the track to a content ID / copyright system — you'd be claiming work that isn't yours.

Liability

Selfpaid Music warrants that it owns the rights to license each track sold. Every tier is provided "as is" — Selfpaid Music's total liability is limited to the amount you paid for the track.
