How to Release a YouTube Copyright Claim with Epikton Music
Updated: October 2025
All music purchased on epikton.net/store comes with the Universal License, the broadest coverage of rights available. This single license allows you to safely use music across YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, video games, movie trailers, podcasts, commercials, and more.
Unlike many corporate licensing platforms that limit usage time or tie rights to a subscription, the Universal License covers your project forever. Once you license a track, you are protected for eternity.

If you ever receive a copyright claim on YouTube, here’s exactly how to dispute it safely and get it cleared fast.
Option 1 (Recommended): Claim Dispute
Epikton’s Claim Dispute page is the fastest and most reliable way to release claims. Submit your license code and YouTube link, and we handle release support directly.
Option 2 (Alternative): Manual Certificate Route
Use this path if you prefer handling the dispute directly inside YouTube Studio with your license certificate.

- Press Download to save your PDF license
Each certificate includes:
- Your name and email as licensee

2. If a Claim Appears
- Go to YouTube Studio › Copyright
- Find the affected video
- Click File a dispute › I have a license or written permission from the proper rights holder
- In the text box, paste your license code and verification link, for example:
I have a valid Universal License for this track purchased from Epikton.net.
