Selling direct on EngineEars

Artists who went to their fans first.

What fans paid on EngineEars, before fees. Completed purchases as of October 2026.

How it works

Your finished songs to paid fans in three steps.

The simplest way to sell music online: upload it, share your link, get paid.

01

Upload & set your price

Add your single, EP or album, artwork and credits. You decide what it costs.

02

Share your store link

Your store lives at EngineEars.com/yourname, or connect your own custom domain like yourname.com for a more custom fan experience.

03

Get paid & keep your fans

Every sale lands in your dashboard and every fan joins your fan list, automatically building your community.

What your fans see

A checkout built for fans who want to give more.

Fans pick an amount at or above your floor price, from quick options like Support, Backer and Superfan, then pay in a couple of taps.

Splits

Pay everyone who made the record.

Add your producer, featured artists, writers and engineers to the release and set each person’s share. Every sale and stream is divided the way you set it, and each person’s share is paid automatically to their own EngineEars dashboard. Nobody has to chase you for their cut.

  • Add anyone who worked on it: producers, writers, featured artists, engineers.
  • Shares cover direct sales and streaming, and apply to every payout.
  • Collaborators don’t need a subscription to withdraw their earnings, and we don’t take a cut of their split.
  • Separate from songwriting splits, if you collect publishing with us.
The math

One fan buying your album is worth thousands of streams.

Move the sliders to see what a direct-to-fan drop could put in your pocket, and how many streams it would take to earn the same.

  • Fans who buy are your most loyal listeners, and now you know who they are.
  • Sell first, then release to streaming to reach everyone else.

Frequently asked

Questions about selling your music online

How do I sell my music online? +

There are two ways to make money from your music online: sell it directly to fans, and distribute it to streaming platforms. On EngineEars you do both from one account. Open a free storefront, upload your release and set a price, then share your store link. When you’re ready, distribute the same release to Spotify, Apple Music and 350+ platforms.

Where can I sell music online? +

You can sell it from your own storefront on EngineEars at EngineEars.com/yourname, or on your own domain, like yourname.com. Link it from your bio, posts and messages. Streaming platforms pay per stream instead of per sale, so most artists use both.

How do I make money selling music online? +

Selling direct pays far more per fan than streaming. 100 fans buying a $10 album is $1,000, which would take roughly 256,000 Spotify streams. Sell to your most loyal fans first, then release to streaming to reach everyone else.

Do I have to distribute to streaming to sell on EngineEars? +

No. You can open a storefront and sell direct to fans on the free Artist Essentials plan. Distribution to streaming platforms is part of Artist Platinum, whenever you’re ready.

Can I split earnings with my collaborators? +

Yes. Add your producers, writers, featured artists and engineers to the release and set each person’s percentage. The shares cover direct sales and streaming, are paid automatically to each collaborator’s own dashboard, and must add up to 100%. Collaborators don’t need a subscription to withdraw their earnings, and EngineEars doesn’t take a cut of their split.

How can fans pay? +

Fans can check out with a credit or debit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Cash App Pay, Klarna or Affirm. Payments are processed securely by Stripe.
