Sell beat leases & exclusives with the terms built in

A lease is a non-exclusive license — you can sell the same beat to unlimited artists, so it's priced lower per sale (typically €19-99 for MP3 or WAV). Exclusive rights removes the beat from sale entirely after one purchase, which is why it costs several times more (often €300-1,000+).

Yes. A tagged (watermarked) preview lets buyers hear the full beat before paying while making it useless for anyone who tries to rip and use it without a license. The untagged file only unlocks after checkout.

Under most beat-licensing terms, artists who bought a non-exclusive lease before the exclusive sale keep their existing license — the exclusive buyer just prevents any new leases going forward. State this clearly in your license terms so there's no dispute later.

Bundle the individual drum, bass, melody, and any vocal-chop stems as separate WAV files, plus the full mixed WAV. This lets a mixing engineer or remixer isolate and rebalance elements — something a single MP3 or WAV file can't do.

No — for beats you produced entirely yourself, you don't need a publishing or PRO registration to sell direct lease or exclusive licenses. A split sheet only matters once another writer, vocalist, or co-producer is involved in the finished track.
