Seller Agreement
Effective date: June 12, 2026.
1. Purpose
This Seller Agreement governs a seller’s use of BeatBidding to list, market, auction, license, or sell music-related digital assets and related drops through the platform.
It is meant to sit alongside the platform Terms of Service and any fee, payout, or verification policies BeatBidding publishes.
2. Seller eligibility and approval
BeatBidding may require application review, identity verification, business information, tax details, social profile review, portfolio review, or other checks before allowing a seller to publish listings.
Approval to sell may be revoked if a seller creates rights risk, unusual chargeback exposure, repeated customer complaints, or trust and safety issues.
3. Rights and authority
The seller represents and warrants that they own or control the rights necessary to list, market, license, and deliver each asset offered on BeatBidding.
The seller must not list assets they do not control, assets subject to unresolved co-producer disputes, uncleared third-party content, or assets already exclusively transferred to another party unless the listing lawfully discloses that position and BeatBidding permits it.
4. Exclusive asset commitment
If a listing is described as exclusive, the seller agrees that once the sale closes and the transaction is completed, the seller will not knowingly relicense, resell, repost, or otherwise offer that same exclusive asset in a conflicting way.
If the seller previously distributed a non-exclusive version, sample pack inclusion, preview, snippet, or derivative use, that should be disclosed clearly before listing where relevant.
5. Listing standards
Sellers must provide accurate titles, descriptions, stems or file details where applicable, usage terms, known sample status, producer credits, and any material restrictions or obligations attached to the asset.
BeatBidding may reject, edit for formatting, unpublish, or request clarification for listings that are misleading, low quality, legally risky, or operationally unsuitable.
6. Delivery obligations
Sellers must be able to deliver the promised files, stems, metadata, and any associated rights documentation within the required fulfillment window after a successful transaction.
Failure to deliver in a timely and usable form may lead to refund, buyer remediation, payout holds, account penalties, or removal from the platform.
7. Fees, payouts, and reserves
BeatBidding may deduct platform fees, payment processor costs, taxes, chargebacks, reversals, and other authorized offsets before remitting seller payouts.
BeatBidding may place holds or reserves on payouts where necessary for fraud prevention, dispute resolution, onboarding risk, unusual sales patterns, high refund rates, or legal claims.
8. Refunds, disputes, and chargebacks
Because the platform is expected to operate on a final-sale basis for many digital goods, refunds may be limited. However, BeatBidding may issue or compel remedies where there is fraud, duplicate sale, rights failure, non-delivery, corrupted files, or material misrepresentation.
If a buyer files a chargeback or payment dispute tied to a seller’s conduct or listing, BeatBidding may withhold or recover the affected amounts and related costs to the extent permitted by law and agreement.
9. Platform enforcement
BeatBidding may investigate complaints, request evidence of ownership, request session files or project proof, remove listings, freeze payouts, suspend accounts, or permanently remove sellers where trust, safety, legal, or marketplace integrity concerns arise.
10. License to platform
The seller grants BeatBidding a non-exclusive, worldwide, limited license to host, display, promote, reproduce, and distribute listing materials, previews, artwork, descriptions, and related metadata as needed to operate and market the marketplace.
This license is limited to platform operation, promotion, moderation, support, and legal compliance purposes unless otherwise agreed.
11. Compliance and prohibited listings
Sellers must comply with applicable law, tax rules, sanctions restrictions, consumer protection rules where applicable, intellectual property law, and BeatBidding policy requirements.
Prohibited listings include unlawful content, infringing assets, deceptive products, malware or harmful files, impersonation, and any asset that would expose the platform to unreasonable legal or financial risk.
12. Indemnity
The seller agrees to indemnify BeatBidding against claims, losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses arising from the seller’s listings, rights failures, infringement allegations, delivery failures, misleading representations, tax failures, or other breaches of this agreement, to the extent permitted by law.
13. Termination
BeatBidding may terminate or suspend seller access at any time where reasonably necessary to protect users, comply with legal obligations, reduce risk, or enforce platform standards.
Termination does not eliminate obligations tied to prior transactions, outstanding claims, fee obligations, indemnity duties, or records retention needs.
14. Operational notices
BeatBidding may publish additional seller-facing fee schedules, payout timing notices, verification requirements, and dispute evidence standards alongside this agreement.
