When you search on PaidTabs, our system fetches music content from third-party platforms like YouTube, Spotify, TikTok, and Instagram through official APIs and agreements. This allows us to show relevant public content related to the song or artist you're looking for.
Important: PaidTabs does not store any video or media content from these platforms. The content you see is fetched and displayed using official embed tools provided by the platforms.
When a creator uploads a score to PaidTabs such as a transcription of their YouTube performance we simply link the uploaded score to the original source, whether that's a YouTube video, Spotify track, Instagram post, or TikTok clip. This ensures transparency and proper attribution.
All videos embedded on PaidTabs use the standard, unmodified embed codes provided by each platform. According to YouTube's official documentation, as long as monetization is enabled by the content creator and the embed complies with platform policies, ads will continue to serve, and creators will still earn revenue and royalties just as if the video were viewed directly on YouTube.
â This means that creators whose content appears on PaidTabs via embeds continue to benefit, and nothing is taken away from their monetization.
