SellaBand is a music website that allows artists to raise the money from their fans and the SellaBand community in order to record a professional album. SellaBand uses the mechanisms of Crowd-funding and is to be seen as a Direct-to-Fan / Fan-funded music platform utilising a Threshold Pledge System / Provision Point Mechanism. It was set up by Johan Vosmeijer (ex Sony/BMG), Pim Betist (ex Shell), and Dagmar Heijmans (ex Sony/BMG) in August 2006. Its offices used to be located in Amsterdam, Netherlands, but it was originally incorporated in Bocholt, Germany. In October 2010 the post-bankruptcy company moved to Munich, Germany.

On April 8, 2008, SellaBand raised EU€3.5 million (US$5 million) in their Series A round led by Prime Technology Ventures.

In early 2009, Pim Betist left SellaBand to set up Africa Unsigned, using SellaBand technology as a base and supported by the Dutch government.

In January 2010, Sellaband filed for Bankruptcy. It relaunched days later, after an investor stepped forward. The office was relocated to Munich, Germany.
