Distribute Your Music to Boomplay

Boomplay is the largest music streaming and download service in Africa, with tens of millions of active users across Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania and beyond. ORB delivers your release to Boomplay as a first-class store and pays you in your local currency.

Why Boomplay is essential for African artists

If your core audience is in Africa, Boomplay is non-negotiable. It dominates streaming across the continent with a catalogue and chart system built around African music, and its Buzz social feed helps new artists get discovered locally.

Many international distributors treat Boomplay as an afterthought. ORB is built for African artists, so Boomplay is a first-class delivery target — not a checkbox — alongside Spotify and Apple Music.

How to get on Boomplay with ORB

Reach Africa's biggest streaming audience in a few steps:

Create your ORB account: Sign up free — your first release is included on the Free plan.

Upload your release: Add your audio, artwork and complete metadata. ORB checks everything so Boomplay accepts it the first time.

Select Boomplay + more stores: Choose Boomplay and any of the other 150+ platforms in one submission.

Go live across Africa: Your music typically lands within 7–15 days, ready for Boomplay charts, playlists and the Buzz feed.

Why distribute to Boomplay through ORB

Built for Africa: ORB treats Boomplay and Audiomack as primary stores, not optional extras — the platforms your fans actually use.

Keep 100% of royalties: On paid plans, every cent your music earns on Boomplay is yours.

Withdraw in local currency: Cash out Boomplay royalties to your bank in NGN, GHS, KES, ZAR, CFA and more — no dollar account required.

Chart-ready metadata: Clean, consistent metadata gives you the best shot at Boomplay charts and editorial playlists.

Is Boomplay important if I already use Spotify? Yes — for African listeners Boomplay often has far more reach than Spotify. Releasing to both maximises your audience at home and abroad.

Does ORB deliver to Boomplay as a main store? Yes. ORB is built for African artists, so Boomplay is a first-class delivery target alongside Spotify, Apple Music and Audiomack.

How do I earn from Boomplay streams? Boomplay royalties collect in your ORB wallet and you withdraw to your local bank account in your own currency.
