Royalty-free music for TikTok
Music for your TikToks that you download free as MP3 and put under your video yourself. No sign-up, also for business accounts, and you may upload the same video to Instagram and YouTube too. All composed and produced in-house – no AI at all.
Free for your own account
For TikToks on your own account the music is free, privately and as a creator. The only condition: the credit “Music: https://audiofire.io” in the post text.
Lifetime license for business, advertising and collaborations
If you make TikToks for your company, club or institution with up to 15 employees, for clients of that size or in a paid collaboration with a brand, you need the Lifetime license for a one-off €119. It also covers TikTok ads, for good and for every song, the premium songs included, and no credit is needed.

Tutorials and tips
When you show and explain something, a calm beat that keeps running helps without covering your voice.
Background musicBefore and after, transformations
The moment of the transformation needs a change you can hear: a drop, a break, an entry. Put the cut right on it.

Make your TikTok sound better
From the first second
On TikTok the first second decides whether someone swipes on. Cut the song so it starts right on the hook, not on the intro.
Keep an eye on the original sound
When you upload a video with your own music, TikTok turns it into an “original sound” that others can use in their videos. Those others have no license from us for it. For you nothing changes, but it’s good to know if your sound suddenly turns up elsewhere.
Quiet under speech
If you speak in the video, set the music about 15 to 20 dB below your voice as a starting point. Make sure every word stays easy to understand. Also test the mix on a phone speaker, since many videos are watched on a smartphone.
Pro tip: sidechain compression (ducking)
With sidechain compression, the music dips automatically as soon as someone speaks. 3–6 dB of extra reduction is a good starting point. In pauses the music comes back up. Keep the transitions soft so the volume doesn’t audibly “pump”.
Frequently asked questions about music for TikTok
Is the music for TikTok really free?
Yes. For your own videos you can download and use every song except the premium songs free as MP3. You pay nothing, not later either. The only condition is the credit “Music: https://audiofire.io” in the post text.
How do I add my own music to a TikTok?
Put the song under your video in a video editor such as CapCut, export it and then upload it to TikTok. Don’t pick an extra sound from the TikTok library when you upload.
May I use the music with a business account?
Yes. With a business account you can only use the Commercial Music Library inside TikTok, but you put our music under your video yourself. If the account is for a company, a club or an institution, you need the Lifetime license.
What if TikTok flags a song?
Our music is licensed for your videos. If TikTok still flags a song, write to us at info@audiofire.de and send the link to the video.
May I post the same video on Instagram and YouTube too?
Yes. The music is tied to no platform. The credit then goes into each description. More on the page Music for Instagram.
May I use the music in paid collaborations?
Yes, with the Lifetime license. If a brand pays you for the video or sends you products, that is advertising. If the video only appears on your own channels, the size of the brand does not matter. If the brand uses the video itself, for example on its channels, as a repost or as an ad (e.g. Partnership Ads on Instagram, Spark Ads on TikTok), it may have no more than 15 employees. Otherwise it needs a license from audiohub.
