What Is a Room in KaraFun Business?

In KaraFun Business, subscribing a room means assigning an active license to one of your karaoke setups so it can play music. This is essential for activating the KaraFun Business app on a device and enabling playback in a specific room.

What Does “Subscribing a Room” Mean?

A subscription in KaraFun Business is linked to a room. Each active room requires a subscription to access the karaoke catalog and playback features. Rooms without an active subscription will be inactive and unable to play full songs.

Before You Begin

How to Unsubscribe a Room on KaraFun Business

If a karaoke room is no longer in use, you can unsubscribe that room directly from your KaraFun Business dashboard. This process pauses billing and deactivates access for the selected room, without affecting your other active rooms.

When Should You Unsubscribe a Room?

• The room is temporarily or permanently closed
• You’re reducing the number of active karaoke rooms
• You're managing seasonal or event-based usage

What Happens When a Room Is Unsubscribed?

When you unsubscribe a room:

• The room is deactivated and you'll no longer be able to play songs at the end of the subscribed period
• No further charges will apply after the current billing period ends

Step-by-Step: How to Unsubscribe a Room

1. Log In to Your KaraFun Business Dashboard
   Go to https://business.karafun.com/ and sign in with your admin credentials.
2. Go to the “Rooms” Section
   Click on Rooms in the sidebar to view your list of active and inactive rooms.
3. Select the Room You Want to Unsubscribe
   Select the rooms you wish to deactivate and click “Unsubscribe room” on the top right of the list.
4. Confirm the Action
   Review the confirmation message.
5. Verify the Room Status
   After unsubscribing, the room status will update to unsubscribed in your dashboard.

Can I Reactivate the Room Later?

Yes. You can resubscribe a room at any time by returning to the Rooms section and clicking “Subscribe” next to the inactive room. This is ideal for seasonal venues or event setups.

Need Help?

If you're unsure which rooms to deactivate or need help managing subscriptions, contact our support team. We’ll help you configure your account to best suit your venue needs.

If you're a business customer located in the European Union, your EU VAT number plays a key role in how taxes are handled on your KaraFun Business subscription. KaraFun is based in France and complies with European tax regulations, which means VAT must be correctly calculated depending on your location and VAT registration status.

What Is an EU VAT Number?

An EU VAT number (Value-Added Tax number) is a unique identifier issued to businesses in European Union member states. It is used for reporting VAT on cross-border transactions between EU countries. A valid VAT number is typically structured with a two-letter country code (e.g., DE, IT, ES) followed by a numeric sequence.

Why Does KaraFun Ask for Your VAT Number?

• Legal requirement: KaraFun, being a company registered in France, must comply with EU VAT rules when billing customers across the EU.
• Intra-community sales: If you’re in another EU country and provide a valid VAT number, KaraFun can apply the reverse-charge mechanism — meaning no VAT is added to your invoice.
• Tax compliance: Including your VAT number ensures your invoice is compliant for your accounting records and local tax declarations.
• Avoid overpaying: Without a valid VAT number, KaraFun is obligated to charge VAT at the French rate (20%), even if you’re entitled to reclaim it.

How It Affects KaraFun Business Customers

If you’re a business customer using KaraFun Business in the EU:

• French customers: You must pay VAT, even with a VAT number. It will be listed on your invoice.
• EU customers (outside France): If you provide a valid VAT number, no VAT will be charged — but your invoice will mention reverse-charge compliance.
• EU customers without VAT number: VAT is added to your invoice at 20% (French rate).
• Non-EU customers: VAT is not applicable.

Where to Enter Your VAT Number

1. Log in to https://business.karafun.com/
2. Go to Account
3. Find the field labeled EU VAT Number
4. Enter your complete VAT number (e.g., BE0123456789)
5. Click Save

Need Help?

If you’re unsure about your VAT status or how to apply it to your KaraFun Business account, contact our support team. We'll help ensure your billing and tax settings are correctly configured.

Setting the correct timezone in your KaraFun Business account is essential for ensuring your karaoke sessions, reports, and automations are aligned with your venue's local time.

Why Timezone Settings Matter

Your selected timezone directly impacts:

• Session scheduling: Start and end times for programmed sessions rely on your local time settings.
• Reports and statistics: Usage analytics, peak hour data, and weekly activity summaries are calculated based on the defined timezone.
• Out-of-session behavior: Features like automatic locking, autoplay, or resets depend on the timing of sessions relative to the venue’s clock.
• Multi-location management: For businesses operating across timezones, assigning the correct local time per venue ensures smooth operations and accurate comparisons.

How to Set or Update Your Timezone

1. Log in to your KaraFun Business dashboard
   Go to https://business.karafun.com/ and sign in with your admin account.
2. Open the Account tab
   In the left menu bar, click Account.
3. Find the Timezone Field
   You can find the Timezone dropdown menu at the bottom of the "Account information" list
4. Select the Correct Timezone
   Choose the appropriate timezone for your venue’s location (e.g., Europe/Paris for France).
5. Save Changes
   Click the Save button at the bottom of the form. Your new timezone will be applied immediately.

Best Practices

• Ensure the timezone matches the venue’s physical location, especially when setting up your account for the first time.
• Review your timezone setting before scheduling sessions or analyzing weekly reports.
• If your venue relocates or operates seasonally in a different region, remember to update the timezone accordingly.

Need Help?

If you're unsure which timezone to select or encounter issues with session timing, please contact our support team. We’ll help you configure it correctly to avoid disruptions.

No, KaraFun Business does not support advance payment or annual billing. All subscriptions are billed monthly, and charges occur automatically on the same calendar day as your initial payment.

How Billing Works

• Monthly billing only: Each active room is billed monthly from the date of first payment.
• Fixed charge date: Your billing date is the same each month (e.g., if your first payment was on the 5th, future charges occur on the 5th of every month).
• No annual or upfront payment: There is no option to prepay for multiple months or pre-load credit into your account.

Why Advance Payment Is Not Available

• Flexible activation: Subscriptions are tied to room usage and can be started or stopped anytime.
• Simplified billing model: Monthly billing ensures that you only pay for what you actively use.

KaraFun Business is a streaming-based service that requires an internet connection to access the full song catalog. However, we understand that some venues may need to operate temporarily without internet access. In such cases, it’s possible to prepare your karaoke setup for offline use.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Connect the device to the internet.
   Make sure the device (PC or KaraFun-hosted Android device) is connected to a stable Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection.
2. Login to the KaraFun Business app.
   Use your KaraFun Business credentials to sign in to the app on the device.
3. Open the application menu.
   On the left-hand side of the app interface, locate the wheel icon to access Settings.
4. Enable Offline Mode.
   Locate the menu labeled "Offline". Select the number of songs you wish to download. The application will begin downloading the karaoke catalog to your device.
5. Wait for the download to complete.
   Downloading the full catalog may take some time depending on the size of the library and your internet speed. Ensure the device remains connected and powered on during this process.

Important Considerations

• Catalog Updates: Offline catalogs will not include the latest songs until the next time the device connects to the internet and syncs.
• First-time Setup: Offline mode should only be activated after the device has been used online and fully linked to a room and device ID via your dashboard.
• Emergency Use Only: For venues with karaoke rooms, offline mode is intended as a fallback in case of internet issues. Online access is required to benefit from interactive features like client quizzes, playlists, and remote song selection.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues downloading the catalog or activating offline mode, Book a Demo or contact our support team for step-by-step guidance.

If something goes wrong while using the KaraFun Business app — such as the app freezing, songs not playing, or unexpected behavior — here’s how to troubleshoot and get support quickly.

1. Restart the App

• Close the app completely on your device.
• Wait a few seconds, then reopen the KaraFun Business app.
• Log in and select your room again if prompted.

2. Check Your Internet Connection

• Make sure the device is connected to a stable internet network (Wi-Fi or Ethernet).
• Even in offline mode, the app may need brief connectivity for session syncing or remote control features.

3. Verify Your Subscription and Room Status

• Go to your https://business.karafun.com/ dashboard and check if the room is actively subscribed.
• Ensure your subscription is active and linked to the correct room or device.

4. Reboot the Device

If the issue persists, try restarting your iPad or PC completely. This can resolve temporary glitches or memory-related problems.

5. Use Offline Mode (If Necessary)

If the internet connection is unstable and urgent use is needed, switch the app to Offline Mode (if the catalog has already been downloaded). Please note that features like Remote Control and Quiz won’t work offline.

6. Contact Support

If none of the above steps work, contact our support team directly. When reaching out, please include:

• Your device type (iPad, PC, etc.)
• Room name
• A short description of the issue
• A screenshot or screen recording, if possible

We’re here to help and will respond as quickly as possible.

The queue is the heart of your karaoke experience. It allows your guests to line up songs to be played during a session, keeping the party flowing without interruption.

Adding Songs to the Queue

• From the host device: Search for a song in the catalog and tap "Add to Queue".
• From a guest’s smartphone: When Remote Control is enabled, guests can scan the QR code and add songs themselves from their phones.

Managing the Queue

• Reorder songs: Drag and drop songs to change the singing order.
• Remove a song: Swipe left (on tablet) or tap the trash icon to delete a song from the queue.
• Play a specific song: Tap any song in the queue and select "Play now" to play it immediately, skipping the current one.

During the Session

• Songs in the queue will play automatically, one after the other.
• At the end of each song, the next song in line starts automatically.
• If the queue is empty, the system waits for new songs to be added manually or by guests.

After the Session

The queue resets automatically when the session ends, so it’s ready for the next group.

Tips

• Use the Remote Control QR code to allow a more interactive guest experience.
• Session control (pause, skip, replay) is also available directly from the host device or remote.

If you need help setting up or managing the queue, don’t hesitate to contact our support team.

The Session Management API lets you schedule, view, update, and delete karaoke sessions directly from your own systems. This is ideal for automating operations, integrating with custom booking software, or syncing external data with KaraFun Business.

Where to Find the API Access

To start using the API:

1. Log in to your KaraFun Business account at https://business.karafun.com/.
2. In the left-hand menu, click on API.
3. From this section, you can:
   • Generate your API token (required for authentication)
   • Download the OpenAPI YAML file to explore all available endpoints

Authentication

All requests require a bearer token in the header:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN

Session Endpoints Overview

2. Create a New Session

POST /session/

Example request body:

{
  "device_id": 2,
  "start_at_timestamp": "2025-03-30T01:00:00+01:00",
  "end_at_timestamp": "2025-03-30T03:00:00+02:00",

The KaraFun Business catalog is updated almost every day with newly available karaoke tracks. On average, around 400 songs are added to the platform every month. These updates happen automatically, with no action required on your part.

Where to Find New Songs

The newly added songs appear directly in the KaraFun Business app:

• Open the KaraFun Business app on your connected device
• Browse the catalog or use the search bar
• Newly added tracks are immediately available for playback

Is There a “New Releases” Section?

Depending on your app version and configuration, you may see a dedicated section like “New Releases” or “Recently Added”.

How Many Songs Are Added Monthly?

The editorial team adds approximately 400 songs, covering a wide range of genres and languages, from international hits to local favorites.

Do I Need to Be Online?

Yes. An active internet connection is required to access the latest song updates. If you're using KaraFun in offline mode, you'll need to sync your catalog manually to retrieve new content.

Need Help?

If you're not seeing newly added songs or suspect the catalog is not updating, contact our support team. We'll help you troubleshoot or refresh your library if needed.

If a karaoke track you're looking for isn't currently available in the KaraFun catalog, you can let us know by using the in-app thumbs-up request feature. This helps our content team prioritize new songs based on real user demand.

How to Request a Song Using the Thumbs-Up Feature

1. Open the KaraFun Business app on your device.
2. Search for the song you’d like to sing.
3. If the song isn’t in our catalog, you’ll see “Suggestion” below the song title.
4. Tap the 👍 thumbs-up icon shown next to the unavailable title.

This registers your interest and increases the song’s request count in our internal tracking system.

Why Use the Thumbs-Up?

• It helps us detect demand across different artists, genres, and regions.
• Popular requests are reviewed regularly by our music licensing team.
• There’s no need to fill out a separate form—everything is handled inside the app.

Is There a Way to Track Song Requests?

At this time, song request status or delivery timelines are not public. However, frequently requested titles often make their way into the catalog over time.

Need Help?

If you're unsure whether a song is already available, or if you need help searching for alternative versions, feel free to contact our support team.

To legally offer karaoke to your customers using KaraFun Business, two types of licenses are usually required:

1. KaraFun Content License (Included in Subscription)

Your KaraFun Business subscription includes a license to use the karaoke tracks provided by the platform. KaraFun handles all necessary rights with music publishers and producers, including:

• Synchronization rights
• Mechanical reproduction rights
• Master recording rights

This covers the songs within the KaraFun catalog only. You do not need to obtain additional rights for using KaraFun’s music library in a commercial context.

2. Local Public Performance License (Required Separately)

While KaraFun covers the content licensing, you are still required to obtain a public performance license from your country’s music rights organization. This license is mandatory for playing music in public venues like bars, hotels, or karaoke lounges.

Here are some examples by country:

Why This Matters

• Legal compliance: Performing rights organizations may fine businesses for unauthorized use of copyrighted material.
• Artist support: Public performance licensing ensures composers and performers are compensated.
• KaraFun Business + Local License = Fully Compliant Setup

When planning a karaoke box, whether part of a multi-room venue or standalone, it’s essential to balance comfort, acoustics, and design. KaraFun Business adapts to various room types, but here’s expert guidance to help you create a successful karaoke environment.

Recommended Room Sizes by Group Size

A general recommendation is to allocate 15–20 sq ft (1.4–1.9 m²) per person to ensure proper seating, equipment layout, and performer movement. Here’s a typical breakdown:

• Small room (2–6 people): 100–150 sq ft (9–14 m²)
• Medium room (7–12 people): 150–250 sq ft (14–23 m²)
• Large room (13–20+ people): 250–400 sq ft (23–37 m²)

Why Room Size Matters

• Better sound quality: More space helps reduce echo and allows optimal speaker placement.
• Improved guest comfort: Guests can sing, dance, and relax without feeling cramped.
• Efficient layout: Allows flexibility in placing screens, microphones, furniture, and lighting.

Design & Acoustic Tips

• Room shape: Rectangular layouts offer the best balance for sound and sight lines.
• Acoustic treatment: Wall panels, soft furnishings, and suitable floors can help absorb sound.
• Sound isolation: If installing multiple boxes, use insulated walls and doors to prevent audio bleed.
• Ceiling height: A minimum of 8 ft is recommended for air circulation and speaker placement.

Creating a memorable karaoke experience goes beyond sound and screens—it starts with thoughtful furniture choices that combine comfort, practicality, and ambiance. Here are the essential items to make your karaoke box welcoming, functional, and socially engaging.

1. Comfortable, Flexible Seating

• Add plush, upholstered seating—like modular couches or cushioned benches—arranged in a U-shape for social interaction and good view angles.
• Consider durable, sound-absorbent fabrics that are easy to clean and help improve acoustics.

2. Drink Tables with Space Efficiency

• Avoid placing large center tables that could obstruct movement or pose tripping risks. Opt instead for corner tables or wall-mounted ledges for guests to place drinks safely.

3. Charging Stations & Storage Options

• Install built-in USB or wireless charging points so guests can top up their devices while enjoying the session.
• Provide coat hooks or a small storage area for belongings like bags or jackets to keep the room tidy.

4. Mirrors for Perception and Style

• Strategically located wall mirrors can make a compact room feel more spacious while adding visual appeal.

5. Durable, Easy-to-Clean Surfaces

• Use resilient materials for floors, seating, and walls. Avoid carpets; instead, choose vinyl or laminate flooring that stands up to spills and high foot traffic.

6. Lighting and Decorative Elements

• Enhance the atmosphere with customizable lighting—LED strips, disco balls, or ambient spotlights can transform the mood.
• Small themed touches, like framed artwork or room-specific accents, can elevate guest engagement and brand identity.

Setting up a karaoke room requires reliable and quality equipment to ensure seamless performance, great sound, and guest satisfaction. The KaraFun Business team recommends a tested setup that blends simplicity with professional-grade functionality.

Core Equipment Needed

• iPad
  Use the KaraFun Business app on an iPad (latest-generation iPad Air recommended). Ensure it runs the most recent iPadOS and has at least 50 GB of storage space—enough for approximately 10 000 songs in offline mode.
• USB‑C Adapter
  A high-quality Apple-brand USB‑C adapter enables simultaneous charging and audio output from the iPad via a USB audio interface.
• USB Audio Interface
  Required for high-fidelity sound, this device connects the iPad to your speaker system. Opt for a reliable, installation-quality model.
• HDMI Splitter (or Switch)
  Used to duplicate video output for multiple screens—excellent for providing multiple viewing angles in the room.
• Monitors / Screens
  Minimum one large screen is necessary to display lyrics. If needed, add more screens using an HDMI splitter to ensure visibility from anywhere in the room.

Additional Important Equipment

• Sound System: Quality speakers, optionally powered, paired with an amplifier or mixer to balance audio from the iPad and microphones.
• Microphones: At least one, though multiple set-ups improve guest experience—consider both wired and wireless options based on your venue layout.
• Cables & Connectors: Ensure you have HDMI, USB, XLR, and audio cables appropriate for all connections; plan for extensions, adapters, and backups.
• Comfort and Aesthetics: Proper seating, mood lighting, and sound treatment create a welcoming environment and enhance acoustic quality.

Why Quality & Compatibility Matter

• Reliable Performance: High-quality components reduce setup issues and technical disruptions.
• Professional Experience: Clear audio, responsive controls, and visible lyrics make for an engaging and satisfying karaoke session.
• Scalability: With modular equipment like splitters and audio interfaces, it's easy to expand to multi-room setups or upgrade hardware over time.

Whether you're setting up a private karaoke box or launching a multi-room venue, we can guide you through equipment decisions tailored to your setup and budget. Book a Demo or contact our support team to get started.

KaraFun Business operates primarily through streaming. A stable Wi-Fi connection is essential for a smooth and uninterrupted experience. While wired connections remain ideal, we know that most venues rely on wireless (Wi-Fi) setups. Here’s what we recommend to ensure optimal performance.

Recommended Wi-Fi Setup

• Connection type: High-speed internet with a professional-grade Wi-Fi router (fiber recommended).
• Stability over speed: A stable connection is more important than maximum bandwidth. Prioritize a consistent, drop-free signal.
• Coverage: Make sure every karaoke room has strong Wi-Fi coverage. Use dedicated access points or repeaters if needed.

Why a Good Wi-Fi Connection Matters

• Fast loading of songs from the KaraFun online catalog
• Access to live features such as:
  • Remote control for guests to manage the session from their smartphone
  • Quiz mode, where guests use their smartphone as a buzzer
  • Catalog updates and real-time content availability

Offline Mode: Emergency Use Only

If your internet connection is temporarily unavailable, KaraFun Business offers an offline mode. You can pre-download the entire catalog, allowing karaoke sessions to continue.

Limitations of Offline Mode

• No access to the mobile remote control
• No access to Quiz mode
• No access to new song releases or catalog updates

For venues with multiple karaoke rooms, we recommend using offline mode only in emergency situations.

Wi-Fi Tips for Reliable Operation

• Use a professional-grade router (e.g., Ubiquiti, Netgear Pro)
• Place access points close to each room or use a mesh system
• Avoid using public or overloaded Wi-Fi networks
• Regularly test signal strength in every room using tools like Speedtest
