Licensing for creators
Own it. License it. Get paid.
Turn your footage and videos into licensed income. MicXchange gives you the tools to set your terms, protect your preview, approve the big uses and keep what you earn.
How it works

Publish your video
Upload your work to your MicXchange profile. It stays yours.
02
Add a license
Pick the license types you offer and set your own prices and terms.
03
Buyers preview and ask
Buyers watch a preview, read the terms, then buy or request the rights they need.
04
Get paid
Each sale creates a license record and a certificate for the buyer. You keep up to 90%.

Your ownership tools
You set the terms
Editorial, digital, commercial, broadcast and exclusive licenses. Your price, your territory, your length of time.
Ownership never moves
A license grants permission to use your work. It never transfers copyright, and every license says so.
You approve big uses
Editorial and digital licenses can sell instantly. Commercial, broadcast and exclusive uses come to you as a request, and nothing is granted until you approve.
A record of every license
Each license gets its own record and certificate, so you and the buyer can always see what was granted.
Protected previews
Buyers see a watermarked preview. Your original file stays private. We set this up for featured listings, like the example below.

Questions
- Who owns the video?
- You do. A license lets a buyer use your work in a specific way, for a specific time. It never gives them ownership.
- What if my video has music or shows other people?
- You confirm you have the rights when you add a license. Music, logos and the likeness of people shown need their own clearance, and the license terms say that plainly.
- Can a buyer resell my video?
- No. Standard licenses do not allow reselling, sublicensing or sharing the file.
- Do I have to say yes to every request?
- No. Commercial, broadcast and exclusive requests come to you to approve or decline.
- What does it cost to start?
- Nothing. Joining is free, and MicXchange only earns when you do.
