Common Licensing Questions
Do I need to credit the artist?
Yes, commercial licenses require attribution. Include the artist name and "Music by Ipex Enterprise" in your project credits or description.
Can I use one license for multiple projects?
Personal licenses cover unlimited personal use. Commercial licenses typically cover one project per purchase. For multiple projects, consider our Platinum Membership.
What if my YouTube video gets monetized later?
You'll need to upgrade to a Commercial License. Contact us with your order number and we can help you upgrade with a credit toward the commercial license cost.
Can I use music in client work?
Yes, with a Commercial License. You can create content for clients using commercially licensed music. Keep records of which tracks you use for compliance.
Is there a time limit on the license?
No, both Personal and Commercial licenses are perpetual. Once purchased, you can use the music according to license terms indefinitely.
