When someone hears your song and Shazams it, you want it to come up instantly. Because Shazam is owned by Apple, getting onto Apple Music through a distributor puts you on Shazam too - free. Here's how.
Have your mastered song and square 3000x3000 cover ready - the free audio checker and cover art maker help.
Release through Mazufa - Apple Music is included free. Shazam draws on Apple's catalogue, so your song becomes recognisable there.
Pick a date 3-4 weeks out so everything is processed and live on time across Apple Music, Shazam and every other store.
On release day your song is on Apple Music and identifiable on Shazam - and you keep 100% of the royalties.
You don't need a paid plan to be on Shazam - just a release on Apple Music, which Mazufa delivers free with 0% commission. The same upload also lands you on Spotify, Amazon Music and 150+ more.
Release your song to Apple Music through a distributor. Shazam is Apple-owned and indexes Apple Music's catalogue, so your song becomes recognisable on Shazam automatically.
Yes. A free distributor like Mazufa delivers your music to Apple Music (and therefore Shazam) at 0% commission, so you keep 100% of your rights.
No. You don't submit to Shazam directly - getting onto Apple Music through your distributor is what makes your song identifiable on Shazam.
It becomes recognisable once your release is live on Apple Music - set your release date about 3-4 weeks ahead to be safe.
Shazam itself is discovery - it points listeners to your song on Apple Music and other services, where your streams earn royalties you keep 100% of with Mazufa.
