Buy individual tracks
If you do not have Apple Music, or you are on Android, you can buy mainstream tracks outright. You pay once and the file is yours forever, with no subscription. Some stores let you do this entirely on your phone; others need a quick download on a computer first. They are grouped into those two below, and all of them sell DRM-free files that work with Wedding Player.
Availability and catalogue vary by country, so check which ones serve your region.
Where to buy
Buy straight on your iPhone
These download directly to your phone, with no computer needed. On Android, every store on this page downloads directly, so any of them works.
- iTunes Store Built into iPhone (worldwide)
The purple star icon, separate from the Apple Music app. Search, tap the price to buy, and the track lands in your Apple Music Library. Import via Add Apple Music in Wedding Player. iTunes Store tracks have been DRM-free since 2009, so you do not need an Apple Music subscription to play tracks you have bought.
- Bandcamp Global
Strong for indie, electronic, classical, jazz, and direct-from-artist purchases. Choose MP3 on download and it works on every device. Works directly on iPhone too: download in Safari, save to your Files app, then import via Add Local Files.
Visit store - 7digital UK and Europe
Sells DRM-free MP3s through the web browser. On iPhone the download usually arrives as a zip, so tap it in your Files app to unzip before importing.

Download on a computer, then transfer
These either need a desktop app or keep the file inside their own app, so on iPhone download on a Mac or PC, then send the file to your phone by AirDrop or iCloud and import it.
- Amazon Music Store Global
Amazon sells DRM-free MP3s, but on iPhone the purchased files stay locked inside the Amazon Music app and cannot be exported. To get a file you can import into Wedding Player, buy and download on a computer using the Amazon Music app, then send it to your phone by AirDrop or iCloud.
Visit store - Qobuz Strong European and US coverage
Wide mainstream catalogue including chart pop, classical, and jazz. Qobuz downloads purchased files through its Mac or PC app, not on the phone directly, so you download on a computer (choose MP3) and then send the file across to your phone by AirDrop or iCloud.
Visit store - Beatport Dance and electronic
Dance, electronic, and DJ-oriented catalogue. Best bought on a Mac or PC, then transfer the file to your phone.
Visit store - HDtracks US and global
High-resolution downloads, best handled on a computer. Choose MP3 or M4A for iPhone compatibility, then transfer the file to your phone.

Format guidance
Which format to choose
MP3 (or M4A) is the safe default on every device. When a store offers a choice of formats, pick MP3 or M4A and it works the same on iPhone, iPad, and Android.
Most chart tracks land in the same broad price range across these stores, and you only need to buy the handful of songs you will actually play on the day.
Get it into the app
After buying, import the track
On iPhone, iTunes Store purchases land in your Apple Music Library, and Bandcamp files save to Files › Downloads. For the other stores, download on a computer first, then AirDrop or iCloud the file to your phone, where it appears in Files. On Android, files land in the relevant app's library or your Downloads folder.
- iTunes Store purchase (iPhone): import via Add Apple Music in Wedding Player.
- Any downloaded file (Bandcamp, Qobuz, Amazon, 7digital, etc.): import via Add Local Files in Wedding Player.
