Latin music clipping for record labels and artists

Latin music clipping is a campaign where clippers in Latin America, Spain and the US cut your song into short clips and post them on their own TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts accounts with the official sound. You pay only for verified views of approved clips, and our team builds and runs the campaign.

What Latin music clipping is

Music clipping is a way to promote a song on TikTok, Reels and Shorts by posting short vertical clips of it from many accounts at once. In Latin music clipping, those accounts belong to clippers who post for Spanish-speaking audiences. When the brief sets an official sound, every clip has to use it.

It is video clipping, not press clipping. The brief doesn't ask for a release date, so a campaign can push a new single or a catalog song, as long as its sound is live on the platforms.

Clippers Flow is a Spanish-language music clipping agency for artists and labels. It does Latin music marketing for the short-form part of a release: many clippers post your song in vertical clips, and you pay per verified view. Playlists, radio and press are not part of it.

What goes in a music clipping campaign brief

The brief is what clippers read before they start. We write it with you, and you see it before launch.

The song
Artist, title and, if you have it, the Spotify link.
The official sound
The TikTok sound, the Instagram audio and the YouTube reference that clips must use.
The material
The official video, visualizer or interviews, and the campaign cover.
Creative direction
Which cuts, hooks and formats to make, and what to avoid.
Where and who
The platforms, the countries and the minimum clipper rank.
The payment
The CPM, the budget, the maximum per clipper and, if you want one, a minimum per clip.

Promoting a Spanish song on TikTok with the official sound

A clip with another sound doesn't count toward your song, so it isn't paid. On TikTok, the app checks the clip's sound against the brief when the clipper submits it. On Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, a reviewer checks the audio of each clip by hand before approving it.

A copy of the song uploaded by another account counts as a different sound. For the steps around a release, read how to promote a song on TikTok (in Spanish).

Clip formats for reggaeton, bachata and Latin pop

Any genre works the same way. The brief says which of these formats the campaign accepts:

Lyrics
The lyrics on screen, timed to the sound.
Punchlines
The line people repeat, cut so it works on its own.
Memes
The song behind a joke or an everyday situation.
Edits
Cuts on the beat with transitions, in the style of fan accounts.
Artist moments
Interviews and behind the scenes, with the song playing.
Open format
Each clipper picks a format within the brief.

A clip in a format the campaign doesn't accept is rejected, even with a lot of views.

Latin music promotion in the US Hispanic market and Latin America

Clippers in over 15 countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Spain, the United States, and Venezuela. Over 1,500 clippers have posted clips for campaigns.

Each campaign chooses which countries its clippers can be from, all of them or a few, and on the call we tell you how many active clippers fit. Clippers verify every account they post from with a code in its bio.

What you pay for

You pay for verified views of approved clips at the campaign's CPM, the price per thousand views. Views come from each platform's public count, and a deleted video stops counting. You fund the budget before launch. It is the most the campaign can spend, and when it runs out the campaign completes on its own. To see how the price is set, read how much a clipping campaign costs (in Spanish).

Every clip is reviewed by hand before it's paid. A clip with another sound, off-brief content, an unverified account, a duplicate, low quality, bought views or paid ads isn't paid. 9 in 10 reviewed clips are approved. Every reason is in why a clip gets rejected (in Spanish).

What your label sees while the campaign runs

From the first approved clip, your dashboard shows views day by day, the top clips with links to the posts and the split by platform. A CSV export lists the clips with their views, likes, comments and shares. To pause, resume or extend the campaign, you tell us and our team makes the change. The full process is on clipping campaigns for brands (in Spanish).

Questions from labels and managers

Can the brief accept a sped-up or remix version of the song?

Yes, if it's an official sound. The brief can list more than one sound per platform, such as the original and a sped-up version. On TikTok, a clip passes with any of them.

Can one clipper take most of the budget?

Not if the brief caps it. We propose a maximum per clipper when we set the budget, and once a clipper reaches it, the campaign stops taking their clips. The brief can also cap what a single clip earns.

What if a clip misuses the artist's image or the song?

The brief says what clippers can't do, and a clip that ignores it is rejected. Each clipper is responsible for what they post, and we act on copyright and brand complaints about a clip when you ask.

Can a campaign run only on TikTok?

Yes. The brief sets which platforms the campaign accepts: TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts or a mix. A clip from a platform the campaign doesn't accept can't be submitted.
