Artist Pricing
Why give your musical genius away for free?
Jam45 caps song previews at 35% so listeners hear enough to discover your music—but not enough to replace buying it. When a site gives away the full song, fans can simply listen there. Jam45 is built to turn discovery into purchases, support, and lasting fan relationships.
Everything an independent artist needs.
101 included artist features. No stripped-down starter tier.
