Creating your account

Sign up

Go to notnoise.co/signin and pick one of two options:

• Continue with Google: fastest. One click, no password to remember.

• Email: enter your email and we send you a six-digit sign-in code. Type the code and you're in. No password needed, and entering the code on a new email creates your account. If you prefer a password, there's a password option too.

No credit card required. You're on the Free plan by default.

Step 1: Complete your profile

On first sign-in, NotNoise asks for your full name and country. Your name keeps billing, support, and account records tied to the right person. Your country helps NotNoise show the right streaming platforms and currency. NotNoise usually detects your country automatically; confirm or change it, then click Save and continue.

In a hurry? You can skip this for now and NotNoise will ask again later.

Step 2: Find your artist

Next, NotNoise asks you to find your artist profile:

1. Search for your artist on Spotify and pick your profile.

2. If NotNoise finds a matching Apple Music profile, choose it (or continue without one and add it later).

Don't have a Spotify profile yet? Add your artist manually instead and connect Spotify later. If you go manual, type the artist name exactly as it appears (or will appear) on your streaming profiles, because the name has to match for your data to line up.

You can also handle all of this later from Settings > Artist; see Connecting your artist for the full guide.

Step 3: Create your first Smart Link

The last setup step is publishing your first Smart Link: pick a release, and NotNoise creates one link that sends fans to your music on every platform. This also unlocks ads and playlist pitching for that release. If you don't have music out yet, head to Distribution instead and start your first release.

What's next

Suggested first actions, in order:

1. Connect your Spotify artist profile if you skipped it during setup (Settings > Artist). It unlocks Insights and Playlist Pitching.

2. Set up Distribution for an upcoming release, or create a Smart Link for music that's already out.

3. Check Insights once a week to see trends and find what's working.

4. Submit your next release for Playlist Pitching in the first week of its release.

5. Try Ads once a track is gaining traction.

Common questions

• Do I need to pay anything to start? No. Free is free forever. No card required.

• Can I sign up if I don't have music out yet? Yes. You can create your account without a Spotify or Apple Music profile, add your artist manually, and connect the profiles once your first release is live. Distribution is built for first releases.

• Can I change my artist name later? Yes, until you connect Spotify or Apple Music. After that, the artist name locks to prevent data mismatches. Rebranded artists can contact support@notnoise.co to update it manually.

• Can I have multiple accounts for different projects? Free and paid plans up to Max are 1 artist per account. Team includes 3 artist seats, with extra seats at $15/month each for side projects, collaborations, and small label rosters.

• How do I delete my account? Open Settings and use Delete account in the general settings tab. Account deletion is permanent and removes all your Smart Links.
