Frequently asked questions

  • How long is my license valid for?

    Forever! Lickd licenses are generally granted in perpetuity so there's no danger of your video ever being taken down. (Yay!)

  • Can I still monetize my YouTube video if I use music from Lickd?

    Absolutely, yes! Lickd is the first copyrighted music licensing platform that allows you to use great music AND avoid demonetization, with built-in protection from copyright claims.

    As a YouTube partner, we integrate directly into YouTube's Content ID to tell YouTube you've got permission to use a track. If YouTube still decides to put a claim on your video, we're able to squash it's ugly little head for you, so you have nothing to worry about.

  • How do I use my license?

    Once you've purchased a license from Lickd, you'll get an Mp3 download which you can then add to your video using your video editing software.

    When you're ready to upload your video to YouTube, include your license attribution in your video description and upload your video as "Unlisted" with plenty of time before you need your video to go public. This allows VOUCH to clear any claims for you (usually within 30 minutes), or for our dedicated music support team to jump in and clear any claims for you.

  • Why do I need to create an account and link a YouTube channel?

    Most importantly, when you license any music from us, we'll use your YouTube channel ID to prove to YouTube that you have permission to use certain music and so ensure you'll be protected from copyright claims.

    Secondly, we have a fairness-first pricing model, so you only pay what's fair or affordable based on your average video views. When you create an account with Lickd, we take a look at your YouTube channel to calculate your unique, fair price.

  • Can I use Lickd for music channels or lyric videos?

    Our 'premium' copyrighted music licenses do not permit the songs to be used for lyric videos or by themselves as an 'art track' (for example, with just an image of the album artwork, a black screen, static images, stock footage, etc).

    That's because our licenses have been created for those who need background music for their original video content. The type of videos described above are deemed not to use songs as background music for content, but simply as a way for viewers to stream the song itself. This is copyright infringement and therefore cannot be covered by our licenses. This restriction also concerns AI-generated lyric videos.
