Limited Online Music Licence (LOML)

We’ve recently changed the name of this licence – it was previously known as the Limited Online Exploitation Licence. It’s only the name that has changed and the licence’s terms and conditions remain unchanged.

 

LOML is perfect for:

  • small online services
  • offering music or general entertainment content to the UK public
  • revenue generated by the service is less than £12,500 per year
