White-Label Distribution Setup
Updated July 2026.
Yes — LabelGrid supports white-label distribution. On every plan your own label and artist names appear on the stores instead of LabelGrid’s, and the LabelGrid REST API lets distributors build a fully branded platform on top of LabelGrid’s delivery, catalog, and royalty infrastructure. This guide explains what white-label includes and how to set it up.
For the developer reference, see the API Overview and the API documentation. For distribution basics, see Distribution.
What white-label includes
Section titled “What white-label includes”| Capability | Detail |
|---|---|
| Your brand on the stores | Your label and artist names — with your ℗ and © credits — appear on DSPs, not “distributed by LabelGrid” |
| Custom label name | A custom record label name on releases is available on all plans |
| White-label reporting | Included from the Pro plan |
| Branded platform build | Build your own branded front end and workflows on the REST API (API plans) |
| Sandbox | A sandbox environment for testing API integrations |
| Multi-label management | Manage multiple labels and artists under your own brand (label limits scale by plan) |
True white-label distribution
Section titled “True white-label distribution”White-label distribution means the customer’s own identity — not the distributor’s — is what listeners and stores see.
- Your label and artist names appear on the DSPs. The label you select on a release shows as that release’s label on Spotify, Apple Music, and other platforms, and appears in the ℗ (P-line) and © (C-line) copyright credits. LabelGrid does not substitute its own name for your label or artist credits.
- You keep the customer relationship. Your artists and labels sit under your brand. LabelGrid provides the delivery, catalog, and royalty engine behind the scenes.
This is the default behavior on every plan, so even a single-label customer distributes under their own imprint.
Build a branded platform on the API
Section titled “Build a branded platform on the API”The LabelGrid REST API is white-label capable: distributors and platforms build their own branded product on top of LabelGrid.
- Programmatic distribution. Create and manage releases, artists, and catalog through the API, and automate delivery workflows for large catalogs.
- Your own front end. You build the branded interface your customers use; LabelGrid handles the underlying distribution and royalty processing.
- Sandbox for testing. A sandbox environment lets you develop and test integrations before going live.
- Documentation. The API reference is at api.labelgrid.com.
White-label reporting
Section titled “White-label reporting”From the Pro plan upward, LabelGrid includes white-label reporting, so the royalty and analytics reports you share carry your branding rather than LabelGrid’s. This lets labels and distributors present statements to their own artists under their own identity.
How to get started
Section titled “How to get started”- Decide your setup. A custom label name and branded store presence work on any plan. A branded platform or reseller setup needs an API plan.
- Enable API access. API plans include full API access and a sandbox. See the API Overview to get started.
- Contact LabelGrid. For a fully branded reseller or white-label platform setup, contact LabelGrid to confirm the current options and match them to the right plan.
