Why Facebook & Instagram

Passive Royalties From 5 Billion Social Users

Videos, Stories, or Reels that use your music can be a royalty event — even if the creator didn't know they were paying for it. Facebook's Audio Library makes this effortless for fans and profitable for artists.

Billions of Potential Users

Facebook and Instagram together have over 5 billion monthly users creating content every day. Your music can soundtrack any one of those videos — without you doing anything after distribution.

Stories & Reels Discovery

Instagram Reels alone generates billions of views daily. When a creator picks your track from the Audio Library for their Reel, your music reaches their entire follower base — new fans discovering you organically.

Earn While You Sleep

Once your music is in the Facebook Audio Library, royalties accumulate passively — from your fans, from strangers, from creators you've never met. Catapult collects everything automatically and deposits it monthly.

Included with Catapult

What You Get on Facebook & Instagram

One submission puts your music everywhere fans are already making videos.

Facebook Audio Library

Catapult delivers your music into Facebook's Audio Library — the searchable music catalog available to all Facebook and Instagram users when they create content. Fans can browse by mood, genre, or artist name and add your tracks to any video they upload.

Instagram Reels

Instagram Reels is one of the highest-reach content formats on social media. When a creator selects your music for their Reel, your track plays for every viewer — and each qualified play generates a royalty. Your music can go viral without you posting a single thing.

Instagram & Facebook Stories

Fans creating Stories on either platform can search for and add your music directly from the sticker/music tool — no extra step required on your end. Stories are viewed by billions daily, putting your music in front of audiences your own account may never reach.

Organic Video Monetization

Even when your music plays in the background of a video — not specifically chosen by the creator — Meta's audio recognition system identifies it and routes royalties to you. A fan filming a birthday party with your song on the radio counts. That's the breadth of this channel.

Automatic Monthly Royalty Payments

Catapult collects your Facebook and Instagram royalties automatically each month and deposits them into your account. No manual requests. Payment methods include ACH, Wire, PayPal, Venmo, and international transfers.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about Facebook and Instagram music monetization via Catapult.

How does Facebook and Instagram music monetization work?
Catapult delivers your music to Facebook's Audio Library — the centralized music catalog used by both Facebook and Instagram. When any user adds your track to a video, Story, or Reel, Meta's audio recognition system identifies your music, monetizes that piece of content, and routes the royalty to you. You earn automatically on every qualifying use.
Do I earn when my music plays in the background of a video?
Yes. Even if your music is playing incidentally — on a radio, at an event, or in the background of a home video — Meta's audio recognition system can identify it and attribute a royalty to you. You don't need to have been the intentional soundtrack; any identifiable use of your registered music can qualify.
Is Facebook and Instagram included with my distribution?
Yes. You can select Facebook / Instagram as a destination when submitting your release — no separate fee or separate submission. One payment, one upload, and your music reaches Facebook's Audio Library alongside all the major streaming stores.
Can fans search for my music in the Instagram and Facebook music tool?
Yes. Once your release is in the Facebook Audio Library, fans can search for your name, song title, or browse by mood and genre in the music sticker or Reels audio selector on both Instagram and Facebook. Your music appears as a tappable option directly inside the app when anyone goes to create content.
