Scope and support
We contact the society and set out our position on the Sonosfera catalogue. Fees they assess on your business stay yours. Other music needs its own licensing.

More about music for your business
Sonosfera gives cafes a business-ready soundtrack that helps the room feel intentional all day.
- Breakfast trade
- Easy-going music that helps the cafe feel awake without rushing people out.
- Lunch turnover
- Slightly more motion for a busier room, still comfortable for conversation.
- Late afternoon
- A softer landing that keeps the space welcoming as traffic slows.
Business-use answer
Can a café play Spotify or YouTube?
Use YouTube or Spotify as inspiration when briefing your vibe, not as the customer-facing music system. Spotify's terms describe access as personal and non-commercial, and YouTube's terms describe listening as personal and non-commercial while restricting public screening or music streaming. Sonosfera is built for eligible Sonosfera-catalogue playback in supported business spaces.

Questions, answered.
For music in the Sonosfera catalogue: no. With an active plan, your Sonosfera subscription is your license for our music. Sonosfera music is owned by Sonosfera and is not registered with ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, or GMR or any other collecting society. Other music you play (radio, TV, Spotify, live music) still needs your ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, or GMR license.
Playback pauses until you choose a plan; nothing is deleted. Your account, zones, business profile and music preferences are all kept, so if you upgrade later you pick up exactly where you left off. The trial takes no card, so you'll never be charged automatically.
Any time, in a couple of clicks: Settings → Billing → Cancel membership. You keep access until the end of the period you've already paid for — no calls, no forms. Paid-upfront multi-year plans run to the end of their agreed term; the pricing page sets out their terms.
Light movement, warmth, and enough rhythm to create buzz without overpowering conversation.
Breakfast trade: Easy-going music that helps the cafe feel awake without rushing people out. Lunch turnover: Slightly more motion for a busier room, still comfortable for conversation. Late afternoon: A softer landing that keeps the space welcoming as traffic slows. Keep music below conversation or staff instructions. Use separate Sonosfera zones when rooms need different volume or energy, and choose a playlist for each part of the day.
Under an active plan, eligible Sonosfera catalogue playback at covered premises needs no separate collecting-society licence. Other music sources, including personal streaming, radio, DJs and live music, need their own checks.
Your subscription is your licence for Sonosfera music under an active plan. Radio, DJs, live music and third-party playlists need separate permissions.
Your plan covers Sonosfera catalogue playback. Check permissions separately for any other music you play.

Any internet-connected device works: computer, tablet, smart TV, or dedicated media player. Just connect to your existing sound system.
Absolutely. Business plans support multi-location management from a single dashboard, perfect for chains and franchises.
You won't find chart hits or specific artists. That's a licensing limitation, not a choice. But you can request the types of music, moods, and genres you want, and your input directly shapes what gets added. Sonosfera is for businesses who want curated catalogue playback that runs itself.
The track that's already playing keeps going from its buffer, and playback resumes automatically once your connection comes back. After a longer outage you may need to tap play once. Music isn't stored offline, so you'll need a working connection for continuous all-day playback.
Yes. Sign in to your Sonosfera account in any phone browser and the dashboard doubles as a remote: play or pause each zone, skip tracks, switch the vibe, and adjust the volume, all while the music keeps playing on the device connected to your speakers.
Every track is original music owned by Sonosfera, made specifically for commercial spaces. It's designed to create atmosphere, not demand attention, which is exactly what background music should do. Tap play on the sample earlier to judge for yourself.
