Licensed music for Australian venues

Music for Cafés & Coffee Shops

The soundtrack in your café is part of the experience, as much as the coffee. eJukebox provides warm, on-brand background music that shifts through the day, from calm mornings to a busy lunch rush, all fully licensed and controlled from a phone.

  • Licensed for business use
  • No lock-in contracts
  • No credit card

The right mood, all day

Gentle mornings, upbeat lunches. Channels that match the pace of your café hour by hour.

Effortless control

Set it once and let it run, or adjust the vibe from your phone whenever you like.

Licensed for business

A personal streaming account is not licensed for business. eJukebox is a commercial background music supplier, which can lower what you pay OneMusic compared with personal streaming.

How the eJukebox jukebox works in your venue

eJukebox is a managed music system: a compact player at your venue (or a private stream on Solo), run by your staff from their phones, with customers requesting songs from theirs. No jukebox cabinet required.

Music licensing for cafés & coffee shops

Australian venues need a OneMusic Australia licence to play recorded music in public, and that licence stays in your name. Because eJukebox is a commercial background music supplier, it changes what OneMusic charges you compared with a personal streaming account: shops and service businesses come off the top tier, and hospitality venues drop the Digital Copy and Delivery add-on. OneMusic sets and publishes its own fees, and for pubs and clubs we can collect and pay yours for you, at cost. Read more about music licensing for business →

Café music questions, answered

Can I play Spotify or Apple Music in my café?

No. Personal streaming accounts like Spotify and Apple Music are for personal use only, and their terms rule out playing them in a business. eJukebox is licensed for business use, and moving off personal streaming removes the Digital Copy/Delivery fee that personal streaming adds to a café's OneMusic licence.

What does café music cost?

Solo is $49 a month ex GST: one curated channel for one area, streamed to a device you already own, with nothing to install. If you want customers requesting songs, or different music inside and out, Core is $169 a month ex GST. See plans & pricing.

Will the music suit a quiet morning and a busy lunch?

Yes. The music changes with the time of day on its own - gentle for the morning coffee crowd, more upbeat through the lunch rush - so nobody has to remember to change it.

Do I need new speakers or equipment?

No. Solo plays through a computer, tablet, phone, Sonos or streamer you already have, into your existing speakers. Core adds a compact player that connects to your amplifier and keeps playing if the internet drops.

Do I still need a OneMusic licence?

Yes. Every café playing music in public holds its own OneMusic licence, whoever supplies the music, and eJukebox's fee does not include it. How music licensing works.
