What happens if I choose Facebook/Instagram as a store?
We will make your music available on Facebook and Instagram's different music products and features:
I want my music to be available on Facebook/Instagram, what do I have to do?
For new releases, just choose Facebook/Instagram from the list of our partner services. All of our subscription packages include Facebook/Instagram.😊
Please note that some content is not approved for Facebook/Instagram such as meditation, yoga and sleep music, comedy recordings, classical music recordings of compositions in the public domain, audiobooks, podcasts, nature and wildlife recordings. Music with the same instrumental/beat/DAW loops as other available tracks and samples are also likely to be denied. Compilation albums will only be approved if none of the tracks are available already on Facebook/Instagram.

Will I earn any royalties?
Yes, we will report back the usage on these services just like with any other store or music service.
How do I add lyrics to my music on Instagram Stories?
This is done via Musixmatch, and not via Record Union.
Musixmatch is super easy to use, and we recommend that all of our artists check it out. Read more about the lyrics feature by going to their general helpdesk/FAQ here.
How do I add my song to a Facebook / Instagram Story?
It's very easy! This page contains the steps to do this.
How do I link my music to my Facebook/Instagram page?
Once your release has gone live on Facebook and Instagram, we can help you link your music to your profiles. Just send us the ISRC/s of the track/s you'd like to link, along with the links to your Facebook and Instagram pages. We’ll submit a request to Meta on your behalf and take care of the rest.
How do I get verified on Facebook / Instagram?
Verification on Facebook and Instagram is a way to confirm the authenticity of a public figure, brand, or entity. It’s not limited to artists, so anyone who meets the required standards can apply for a verified badge.
You can apply for verification directly through your Facebook or Instagram account. This includes artist pages, business pages, public profiles, and other types of accounts. Just make sure you're logged in to the account you want to verify.
Additionally, you must be aware of the criteria for becoming verified: namely that your profile or page needs to be Authentic, Unique, Complete, and Notable.
You can find out more here and apply for verification here. Please note that you’ll need to be logged in to your Facebook page to access and submit the verification form.
Remember that if your page or profile doesn't meet the criteria for a verified badge, there are other ways to let people know it's authentic. For example, you can link to it from an official website.
