Seven separate income streams — each collected somewhere different
A single play can pay you on multiple sides at once. Almost all of these are free to claim — nothing secret, nothing paywalled. The reason artists don’t get paid is that almost nobody sets them up correctly. Doing it right — the publisher entity, the splits, the metadata, the order — is the whole game.
- ✓Performance royalties — when your song is played
- ✓Publishing royalties — the publisher's share (~half, usually missed)
- ✓Mechanical royalties — reproduction of the composition
- ✓Digital performance royalties — your master on digital radio
- ✓Video platform royalties — every video using your music
- ✓Neighboring rights — international master performance
- ✓Sync licensing — TV, film, ads, games
