Enable Pay-Per-Download
Let fans own your music with one-time high-quality downloads.
Purchase individual tracks or albums as downloadable files in high-quality formats.
Give your audience a way to truly own your music. With Rythme’s pay-per-download feature, fans can purchase and permanently download your tracks or albums in studio-grade quality — no subscriptions, no DRM, just pure access.
Ideal for artists who want to monetize deep cuts, mixtapes, or limited releases.
How It Works
Set Your Price Define custom pricing per track or album — offer free downloads or tiered pricing for rare content.
High-Quality Formats Deliver in FLAC, WAV, or ALAC to preserve audio fidelity. MP3 fallback available for casual listeners.
Instant Access Upon purchase, users receive a secure download link via their profile — available across devices.
Permanent Ownership Unlike streaming, downloads are forever. Fans keep your music locally, even if they leave the platform.
Best Use Cases
Limited Drops Sell a collection of exclusive unreleased material, instrumentals, or raw sessions.
Mixtapes & EPs Monetize side projects, demos, or alternate versions without needing an album rollout.
Fan Bundles Include downloadable artwork, liner notes, or bonus tracks for premium purchases.
Offline Fans Reach listeners with limited connectivity or those who prefer to build a local library.
Technical Add-ons
Secure File Hosting All downloads are hosted via Rythme’s encrypted CDN with IP-locked access to prevent file leaks.
Royalty Integration Downloads contribute to your revenue dashboard and trigger any on-chain royalty splits instantly (if configured).
Custom Licensing Attach download licenses for non-commercial or commercial use — ideal for beatmakers, composers, or sync-ready artists.
Wallet + Fiat Support Fans can pay with credit cards, PayPal, or crypto (ETH, USDC, etc.) via connected wallets or Coinbase Commerce.
Not every fan streams. Some want to own. Pay-per-download gives them — and you — that power. Monetize your music on your terms — track-by-track or album-by-album.
