Standard Membership
The Standard Membership at 440Music.com, priced at $9.95 per month, is designed for independent musicians, recording studios, record labels, small music businesses, and retailers looking to expand their online presence and maximize promotional opportunities.

Additionally, members benefit from banner ad rotation, ensuring greater visibility across the platform. The email marketing cap increases to 5,000 emails per month, providing artists and businesses with more capacity to engage their audience effectively. The Affiliate Profit Sharing also doubles to 10%, offering a greater earning potential for those who refer others to the platform.
Beyond marketing tools, Standard members enjoy enhanced support and promotional exposure. The Ticket Tech Support System guarantees all inquiries are addressed within 24 hours, ensuring users receive prompt assistance. A key advantage of this membership is the Voice Over Line Drop on all radio stations, increasing the likelihood of being heard by a broader audience. When it comes to commerce, 440Music takes only a 5% share on all sales, making it a cost-effective solution for artists and businesses selling music or merchandise. Job board postings start at $2 with additional options available, while community shopping cart listings are free until the item is sold, at which point the 5% platform share applies.
