You WILL Get Copyright Claims
The music is great but the whole point of the service is to avoid copyright claims. My channel is whitelisted in their service but out of 2 videos I've attempted to upload to YouTube, both have been flagged for copyright claims. In fact, my last video received 5 claims.
I've used Artlist.io, Musicbed, and Epidemic sound and have had no issues with any of those services.
The first time this occurred, Uppbeat service advice that I should publish the video as unlisted and the copyright would clear within 15-1hr. This never happened and I had to disput the claim which did clear.
On the latest video with 5 claims I will now have to dispute 5 claims.
The music is great but the copyright clearing system does not work.

May 9, 2024Hi SumoT! 👋 Thanks for your review. As all of our music is registered with YouTube's Content-ID system, you will receive a copyright claim when you use a track from Uppbeat's library in your YouTube content. However, so long as you've whitelisted your YouTube channel or shared your Uppbeat Credit in your video description, our system will see that you have permission to use the music and automatically clear the claims for you. 🙂
I'm very sorry if that's not clear and that you felt our system wasn't working correctly. I'll flag it with the team to see if we can make it more transparent that receiving a copyright claim is nothing to worry about and that our system will automatically clear the claim for you, usually within 15 minutes.
Of course, if you continue to receive claims that aren't automatically clearing then you may be experiencing a rare issue with our system. Please get in touch with our support team at support@uppbeat.io as we want to make sure everything's running smoothly and we'll be able to help resolve any issue for you. Just let me know if there's anything else I can do for you! It's great to hear you're loving our music, and I hope this helps clarify how Uppbeat works!
