BeatStore
Sell beats online from your own WordPress site with a self-hosted beat store player
About BeatStore
BeatStore is a self-hosted beat-selling platform delivered as a WordPress plugin and HTML5 widget that lets music producers sell beats, instrumentals, and sound kits directly from their own website. Unlike marketplace platforms, producers keep 100% of their sales (minus standard payment processor fees) and run their store on their own domain using WooCommerce or Easy Digital Downloads as the backend.

- Supports unlimited beats, sound kits, and license variations
- One-time annual license fee instead of monthly marketplace plans
Cons
- Requires a self-hosted WordPress site with WooCommerce or EDD installed and configured
- No built-in marketplace audience — producers must drive their own traffic
- Needs WordPress 6.5+ and PHP 8.1+, so older hosts may need upgrading
