How does our supermarket background music service work?
Using our royalty-free music service is easy. You just need an internet connection (Wi-Fi or wired) and a device like a computer or tablet connected to your store’s sound system. You can send the music to the speakers via cable or Bluetooth, whichever works best for you.
We offer channels designed specifically for supermarkets: upbeat pop playlists, positive rhythms and medium-high energy, designed to create a pleasant and dynamic atmosphere at the point of sale.
Everything works via streaming. Just log into your user account with your email and password, choose one of our players, and music will begin playing in your supermarket right away.
Music Licenses for Supermarkets
When you subscribe to SoundToro’s background music service for your supermarket, you receive a legal certificate confirming that the repertoire consists, on the one hand, of works by authors who are not affiliated with collective management organizations, and on the other hand, of works whose public performance has been authorized through valid direct licenses granted by the rights holders. You only need to indicate the surface area of the premises (in square meters), and the corresponding rate will be applied automatically.
This solution is designed to facilitate the commercial use of the repertoire without the need for additional procedures. In any case, SoundToro provides a legal and professional solution to soundtrack your supermarket, as long as the service is used in accordance with the established terms of use.

However, if your target demographic prefers certain vocal genres, like soft jazz or pop, you can incorporate them as well. The key is to know your audience.
