Beatport Exclusives: Maximize Your Release
An exclusive release means Beatport is the sole download store selling your music for a chosen period (2, 4, 8 weeks, or lifetime).
Why go exclusive?
- Elevated Visibility: Exclusive tracks receive prime marketing space on our store, are highlighted with a special tag, and gain higher visibility to our 18 million annual visitors.
- Top Charting & Revenue: Exclusives consistently chart higher than non-exclusive releases (whose sales are split across multiple stores). This leads to prolonged exposure and increased revenue.
- Premium Placements: Enjoy better feature placements on genre and homepage sections, inclusion in curated charts (Best New Tracks, Exclusives Only), marketing campaigns, and Spotify playlists.
- Higher Earnings: Exclusives command a higher price point (e.g., $2.49 MP3 vs. $1.69 non-exclusive MP3), resulting in 5x more revenue on average.
Setup: Set up exclusivity easily through your distributor when delivering your release. During that period, we ask that we are the only download store with the release. Streaming platforms are ok.
