Single has long powered digital download sales on Shopify. Now, fans can stream their purchase immediately upon checkout - or download the same way they're used to.
The Fan Experience
1. Before Buying
Fans get a taste of your sound through the Tracklist block — 30-second previews of every track, right on your product page.
2. After Buying
No wait time, no friction. Fans unlock streaming access the second they hit "Buy," across every device. They can jump in from two places:
1. The Checkout Page: A "Listen Now" button appears right on Shopify's "Thank You" and "Order Status" pages after payment.
2. Their Inbox: A "Listen Now" link is included in their delivery email.
Fans can keep using either of these to come back to their music anytime — the Order Status page lives in their Shopify account, and the delivery email stays in their inbox.
Alternatively, you can add a dedicated streaming page to your store nav and call it "Music" if you want an always-on catalog for fans to come back to.
How to Setup with Streaming for New Releases
Drop new releases the same way you always have. One album product now does it all — streaming and downloads, out of the box.
There's just two quick set up steps, and every release after that is automatic:
Add the Tracklist block to your default Shopify product template
Add Instant Access links to your checkout and confirmation pages
Bringing Your Back-Catalog Along
Have older releases published with Single's audio player? Get them up-to-date with streaming by manually updating your past drops—just switch them to your default template and archive the legacy, individual track products.
Want to skip the manual work? Hang tight. We’re building a one-click migration tool that will automatically update your entire catalog for you very soon.
