The Story Behind MusicForBusiness.ca
We believe every Canadian business deserves great music — legally licensed, expertly curated, and effortlessly managed.
Our Mission
MusicForBusiness.ca was founded with a simple mission: make it easy for Canadian businesses to play great music without worrying about copyright, licensing, or compliance. We handle the complexity of SOCAN, Re:Sound, and Canadian copyright law so you can focus on what matters — running your business.
Why Commercial Music Licensing Matters
In Canada, any business that plays music publicly — whether through speakers, a TV, a radio, or a streaming device — is legally required to hold proper performance licenses from SOCAN and Re:Sound. Consumer streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music do not provide commercial licensing. Businesses caught playing unlicensed music face statutory damages of $5,000 to $25,000 per infringement.
We eliminate that risk entirely. Every track in our library is fully cleared for commercial use in Canada. Your monthly subscription covers all licensing fees, so there are no surprise bills or compliance headaches.
