The 30-day trial offers 2 contract credits for free. Is there any catch?

There’s no catch! The 30-day free trial includes 2 contract credits at no cost, giving you full access to explore and use the platform, and send contract proposals to your collaborators. If you don’t use both of your credits within the trial period, any remaining credits will carry over if you decide to subscribe. However, if you choose not to subscribe, the unused credits will expire at the end of the trial.

Can I issue a contract to a collaborator who is not registered with Songpact?

No, your collaborator will need to be registered with Songpact to receive a contract proposal. However, inviting them is quick and easy. They can sign up for our free Flexible subscription plan, which allows them to explore the platform, experience its benefits, and receive and negotiate your contract proposal - without any commitment to a paid subscription.

What countries does Songpact cover?

Songpact currently offers contracts governed by the laws of England and Wales, South Africa, and the states and territories of Australia. We’re actively working to expand our coverage to include additional countries soon.

What does it mean that Songpact is launching in Beta?

Launching in Beta means that the platform is fully operational but still being refined based on user feedback. During this period, you’ll have access to all features and functionalities while we gather feedback and make improvements. It’s an opportunity for us to fine-tune the platform based on real-world use and for you to help shape the final product. While in Beta, you might encounter some bugs, errors or minor issues, but your feedback is essential in helping us create the best possible experience.

Does Songpact provide legal advice?

Songpact is your dedicated ally in providing access to simplified music contracts, tools and resources, but Songpact is not a law firm and cannot provide legal advice. 

Whilst Songpact does not provide legal, tax, or accounting advice, its user-friendly agreements and reliable resources are available 24/7, and have been designed with the aim of empowering you with the knowledge and tools to navigate the music industry confidently, and make your own informed decisions.

Do I still need a lawyer?

Songpact simplifies the contract process, but the music industry and the issues that arise can be unique and complex. We advise that you seek guidance from a lawyer to ensure your specific needs are fully supported.

Can I access Songpact from my mobile device or tablet?

Absolutely! Songpact can be accessed from your mobile device or tablet. While the platform has been optimised for desktop use to provide the best possible experience, we are constantly working on enhancing our entire offering to make it as seamless as possible across all devices. Stay tuned for updates as we continue to improve compatibility and functionality!

Does Songpact provide contract management services for multiple artists?

On Beta launch, Songpact is initially focused on supporting artists, songwriters, producers, musicians, and their representatives. However, we are actively working on expanding our platform to offer comprehensive contract management tools and services designed specifically for managers, record companies, publishers, and other music-related businesses. Soon, you’ll be able to administer contracts for multiple artists all in one place. Stay tuned for updates!
