Clap-powered streaming · Built for African artists

Get paid by the fans who actually play you.

Fans buy claps — prepaid credits in Naira — and spend them as they stream. Every clap flows straight to the artists they listen to. Recurring like streaming, direct like buying.

The problem

Nigerian artists have real fans — and almost no way to get paid by them.

Streaming trained fans to expect all-you-can-play for a few hundred Naira a month, then paid artists a fraction of a kobo per play — and paid a Lagos stream far less than a Stockholm one. Fans who genuinely want to support an artist have had no low-friction way to make their money land.

Pooled & diluted

Your streams compete with the majors for slices of one shared pot, and low-ARPU markets get cross-subsidised down.

One-and-done sales

Selling a song outright caps an artist at a single payment per fan. Great once — no recurring income.

No direct channel

Loyal fans share your music constantly but have no button that says “this money is for you.”

How ClapBeat works

Claps: recurring like streaming, direct like buying.

Fans buy claps

A fan tops up a bundle of claps in Naira — the modern ₦200 CD, prepaid and ready to spend.

They stream & clap

As they listen, claps are spent on the songs they play — and they can clap extra on a track they love.

Artists get paid

Every clap flows through the song's stakeholder split into artist wallets. Keep a song in rotation, pay again next cycle.

For artists

Turn a loyal audience into recurring income.

Built for the 300–20,000-fan artist: too big to ignore, too small for a label deal, and punished hardest by streaming geography. Upload once, get paid every time a real fan plays you.

Recurring, predictable revenue
A devoted fan pays a fresh clap each cycle — income you can actually forecast.
Know exactly who pays you
See your real, paying audience instead of an anonymous stream count.
Fair splits, on-chain-clear
Every producer, writer and collaborator on a song is credited and paid their share automatically.
Instant Naira payouts
Your wallet fills as fans stream. Withdraw to your bank — no gatekeepers.
