How to Sell Music on OwnLinker

Getting Started

Selling music on OwnLinker is straightforward. Once you create an account, you automatically get your own OwnLinker where you can upload, organize, and sell your tracks.

Step 1: Create Your Account

Sign up for a OwnLinker account and complete your profile. Add a profile picture, bio, and any links to your social media. Your OwnLinker store is automatically created and ready to use.

Step 2: Upload Your Tracks

Go to the SELL section in your dashboard. Click "Upload Track" and select your audio file. Supported formats include MP3, WAV, and FLAC. Add artwork, title, artist name, and a description. You can also set genre, mood, and other metadata to help fans discover your music.

Step 3: Set Your Prices

Decide how much each track costs. You have full control over pricing. Consider factors like track length, production quality, and market demand. You can adjust prices anytime, so don't be afraid to experiment. The platform provides pricing recommendations based on similar tracks.

Step 4: Organize Your Catalog

Use the drag-and-drop feature in the SELL section to reorder your tracks. Organize them to showcase your best work first. The order you set is how they appear in your OwnLinker, so make sure your strongest tracks are at the top.

Step 5: Enable Resale (Optional)

For eligible tracks, you can enable licensed resale. This allows buyers to resell your tracks to other users, with a portion of the revenue going back to you. This creates a secondary market and can generate additional income over time.

Step 6: Start Selling

Once your tracks are live, fans can discover them through your OwnLinker or by browsing the platform. When someone purchases a track, you receive payment directly. Track your sales and earnings in your dashboard.

Managing Your Catalog

You can edit track details, update prices, and manage your catalog anytime. Use the SELL section to view all your tracks, see sales statistics, and make changes. Your OwnLinker updates automatically when you make changes.

Earnings and Withdrawals

All earnings are tracked in your wallet. When you're ready, you can withdraw funds to your bank account. Withdrawals typically take 3-5 business days. You can view detailed transaction history and earnings reports in your wallet.
