TuneFreq vs Wavedd
Wavedd vs TuneFreq: fees, local City Fund, event tickets, and TuneFreq community radio.
Section 01
Wavedd is an independent storefront for music, sample packs, merch (including print-on-demand), event tickets, and remix competitions—with a “City Fund” that routes part of platform revenue to local artist communities. TuneFreq is a marketplace built for labels and artists who want music, digital goods, physical products, subscriptions, and 24/7 human-curated radio in one place. Here is how they differ.
Section 02
TuneFreq: You keep 95% of every sale. We take 5%. On your first $5,000 in revenue, we take 0% (launch incentive). Payment processing is separate—typically around 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction.
Wavedd: Their marketing shows a platform fee on sales plus a small automatic contribution to a local City Fund (they describe 2% of the platform fee to the fund in their materials). Example pricing UI on their site has illustrated splits—confirm live fees and fund rules on wavedd.com before you budget.
Takeaway: Wavedd emphasises local reinvestment; TuneFreq emphasises maximum artist take and a single home for catalogue, tools, and radio. Both are direct-to-fan.
