Background music licensing for European businesses
Whether you run a restaurant, café, gym, or retail store, playing background music in your business requires a public performance license in Europe. EasyMusicLicense makes it easy to get the right license for your industry — no paperwork, no dealing with collection societies.
Why business type matters for music licensing
Different business types have different licensing needs. A gym playing high-energy workout music has different requirements than a hotel lobby playing ambient background music. Our licenses are tailored to each business type, ensuring you are fully covered.
One license, full EU coverage
All EasyMusicLicense plans are valid across the EU and EEA. You get an instant digital certificate that proves your compliance — no need to register separately with GEMA, SACEM, SGAE, SIAE, or other national collection societies.
