How to use the Sound.me app, step by step
- Download the app. Search for “Sound.me” on the App Store or Google Play and install it. It’s free; you need to be 18 or older.
- Connect your accounts. Connect your TikTok, Instagram or YouTube account; you see campaigns for each platform you connect. Allowing location access helps the app show you the campaigns for your country.
- Pick a campaign. New campaigns land in your Inbox. Each one shows the sound (tap play to hear it), the directions, such as lip sync, dance or creative freedom, and what you can earn. Read the instructions before you apply.
- Apply. Some campaigns let you join straight away; others need approval first. Campaigns you applied to wait under Pending until you hear back.
- Post and submit. Make your video following the directions and post it on your own account. Then submit it in the app: pick it from your videos or paste its link.
- Get paid. The team checks every video for the right sound and the directions. Each approved video is paid based on the verified views and engagement it gets in its first 72 hours; keep it up for at least 60 days. Cash out from the Profile tab via PayPal or Venmo from a $5 balance, or via Stripe, Cash App or ACH from $20 (see creator payouts).
- Invite friends. In Profile, tap “Invite friends” to share your code. You earn 10% of what each creator you invite earns from campaigns in their first year, then 2% for as long as they keep posting.
