License Certificates

What a BeatPass license certificate shows, how to access it, and how to use it.

A BeatPass license certificate records your right to use a track under a specific license. It combines track details, your license identity, the usage terms, and a public verification link.

BeatPass issues certificates based on producer warranties, disclosures, and Proof of Rights. A certificate documents the license record, but it does not guarantee that no third-party claim, AI-origin dispute, or rights-verification issue can ever arise.

How to Access a Certificate

1. Open Your library → Licenses

   Navigate to Your library → Licenses.

2. Find the license

   Search by track, artist, licensee, or license ID.

3. Open the certificate

   Select Download on the license card to open the printable certificate page for that license UUID.

Other Ways to Reach the Certificate

• The Download Complete modal after a successful track download
• A direct printable URL tied to the track and license UUID

Licenses are auto-generated when you download a track as a non-owner. You do not need to take a separate action to create the certificate.

What the Certificate Shows

Section	What it includes
License identity	Certificate UUID and license type (Non-Exclusive or Exclusive)
Track information	Track name, credited artists, duration, release date, genre, and track ID
Audio Fingerprint Details	Fingerprint status, fingerprint date, analysed duration, and fingerprint hash when available
Licensed User Verification	Licensed user name and masked email
Usage terms	Rights and restrictions for the specific license type
Verification link	Public URL at /verify-license/{uuid}

Certificate vs receipt vs download history

A payment receipt proves that a transaction happened. Download history shows that an account accessed a file.

A BeatPass license certificate records the license identity, track details, applicable usage terms, licensed-user verification, fingerprint details when available, and a public verification link. When a distributor, platform, collaborator, label, or rights team asks for proof, the certificate is the document designed for that moment.

AI and Rights-Issue Context

BeatPass certificates do not allow AI training, dataset creation, model development, sample-pack creation, or competing library use unless separate written permission is granted by all required parties.

If BeatPass later removes, disables, or materially restricts a beat because of a verified rights issue, AI misrepresentation, failure of Proof of Rights, breach of the AI Audio Policy, or another producer-side licensing problem, BeatPass may provide support, replacement credit, account credit, refund review, documentation support, certificate-status context, or another commercially reasonable remedy under the applicable policies.

BeatPass cannot grant rights the producer did not own or control.

What a certificate does not promise

A certificate documents the license record BeatPass issued. It does not promise that no third-party rights issue, AI-origin dispute, producer-side breach, or platform review can ever arise.

If a verified issue appears later, BeatPass may provide commercially reasonable support under the applicable policies. BeatPass cannot grant rights the producer did not own or control.

Standard Non-Exclusive Terms

What you can do

Create one original musical work with the beat, distribute and monetise that song, perform it live (up to 50 attendees per event), and promote it online while crediting the producer.

What you cannot do

Release the beat by itself, use it in film/TV/broadcast radio/commercials/video games, perform at larger paid events, claim ownership of the beat, resell or share the beat or stems, or register the beat in Content ID.

Attribution

Standard non-exclusive terms require credit in this format: Produced by [Producer Name].

Common questions

Can I send my certificate to a distributor?

Yes. If a distributor, label, platform, or rights team asks for proof, send the certificate or its public verification link.

Does my certificate still matter if I cancel?

Yes, for licenses that remain valid under the applicable terms. Cancellation affects future access, not the existence of an already issued certificate.

Is a screenshot enough?

Use the certificate and public verification link instead. A screenshot cannot independently confirm the certificate’s current status.

Exclusive Certificate Terms

Exclusive certificates reflect the purchase terms for that specific track. Under the current default model, the certificate can include:

• Exclusive worldwide rights
• Perpetual term
• Content ID registration allowed
• Producer publishing share 20% / Licensee publishing share 80%
• Producer revenue royalty 3%
• Transfer disabled by default

Always treat the generated exclusive certificate as the final source of truth for that purchase. It reflects the terms attached to the transaction, not a generic promise.

Printing and Sharing

The certificate opens as a printable BeatPass page. In practice, you can:

• Print it or save it as a PDF from your browser
• Share the public verification URL when a platform, distributor, or rights team needs confirmation

Status and Priority Rules

Active vs revoked

The certificate and the public verification page reflect whether the license is still valid. If a license is revoked, that status is visible during verification.

Rights issue or review status

Future certificate states may include under review, disputed, rights issue notice, or revoked for licensee breach. A review or rights-issue status does not automatically mean the buyer acted wrongly; it means BeatPass has identified a license, rights, compliance, or verification issue that may require support.

Exclusive vs non-exclusive priority

If both an exclusive and a non-exclusive license exist for the same track, BeatPass prioritises the exclusive license. Exclusive licenses are colour-coded blue; non-exclusive licenses are green.

Producer view

If you own tracks, Your library → Licenses also shows licenses granted to other users for your catalog.
