Society registers (SACEM, SCPP, GEMA…) can't be read automatically. If you see this song's ISWC or ISRC there, add it: we check it before it shows on the page.

Without this link a society can't tell which song a reported stream belongs to, so the writers' money waits. How to fix it →

How to fix it

Register the composition

Check with your own society whether the song is registered as a work, with every writer and their split.
If it is not, register it (title, writers, splits, IPI numbers) or ask your publisher or administrator to do it.
Ask for the ISWC once it is assigned and add it to your distributor's metadata.
In countries where you have no sub-publisher, check the work reached the local society; if not, ask your society to send it or claim it there.
Ask each society for back-payment of the periods they still allow you to claim.

Register the recording for neighbouring rights

Get the ISRC of the recording from your distributor or label.
Join the neighbouring-rights society of each country where the track is played (performers and producers can join).
Declare the recording with its ISRC and your role (featured, session, producer).
Claim the periods still open; in the US, also search SoundExchange's unclaimed list.
