When someone buys your beat exclusively, BeatPass updates the beat, issues the certificate, records the sale, and prepares the payout flow. This page explains what the current product does automatically and what stays your responsibility as the producer.

Sale Lifecycle

1

Buyer completes the exclusive purchase

The buyer pays your listed price plus the BeatPass platform fee.
2

BeatPass creates the exclusive certificate

The system issues an exclusive license certificate using the exact terms saved on the beat.
3

The beat is marked Sold

BeatPass marks the beat as Sold and stops future standard licensing for that beat.
4

Notifications are sent

BeatPass can send the producer a license-purchased notification by the user’s enabled channels, including email and in-app style notifications.
5

The sale appears in producer finances

BeatPass records the sale in your producer finances and payout flow.

What Changes on the Beat

Existing BeatPass non-exclusive licenses remain valid if they were issued before the exclusive sale. Exclusive sales stop future licensing; they do not erase earlier certificates.

What the Buyer Receives

The buyer receives:
  • An exclusive license certificate
  • The beat files configured in your exclusive deliverables
BeatPass immediately provides the original uploaded WAV. You are responsible for providing stems and every other producer-delivered file that you guaranteed in the track form. The exact buyer package comes from the configuration saved when the purchase started.

What You Receive

From the producer side, BeatPass currently gives you:
  • A sale notification
  • A sale record in finances
  • A locked sold beat state
  • Payout routing through the active payout route once your setup is ready

Payout Notes

BeatPass records the sale immediately, but bank payout timing still depends on:
  • Your payout setup status
  • Provider settlement timing
  • Your bank and country
If payout setup is not connected or still incomplete, fix that first in Finances.

Can You Change the Beat After It Sells?

Only the cover art can be edited after an exclusive certificate is issued. The audio, licensing model, status, price, and sold license terms are frozen so the buyer keeps a permanent certificate tied to the exact purchased agreement.

Common Questions

No. Once BeatPass marks a beat as sold, it is no longer available for another exclusive purchase unless the underlying sale is reversed by BeatPass.
Yes. If the certificate was issued before the exclusive sale, it remains valid under its original terms.
No. Sold terms are locked because the buyer’s certificate has already been issued against that version of the configuration.
Current newly published or edited exclusive offers require stems and a producer delivery guarantee. For an older offer, the purchase preview and certificate show whether stems were promised.
