We become the publisher (admin only, you keep your rights): we register every song, fix the splits and claim what is owed, back to the oldest period still open. No upfront fee — a commission on what comes back.
Ask your society for the ISWC of the work. No ISWC often means an incomplete registration.
Complete what is missing (writers, splits, publisher) so the code can be assigned.
Share the ISWC with your distributor and publisher so platforms can match plays to the work.
Where your money comes from
Every song earns on two sides
The song (what you wrote) and the recording (what you recorded) are paid separately, by different organisations. Streams are only one source — radio, TV, live and public places matter as much or more for songwriters.
Publishing · the song
Songwriting money
Paid to writers and publishers by authors' societies (SIAE, SACEM, GEMA, PRS…), your publisher, and The MLC in the US.
Streaminga small slice of every stream (mechanical + performance)estimated below
Radio & TVoften the biggest item for songwriterspublic radio plays below
Live showsa share of ticket sales, if the setlist is reportedin the Live tab
Shops, bars, gyms, venuesbackground music licencesnot estimated yet
Syncads, films, series, games — by contractnot estimated yet
Downloads & CDsmechanical royalties on salesfrom your own files
Abroadcollected by local societies, passed back to yoursfrom your own files
Recording · the master
Recording money
Paid to the artist and label by the distributor, and by performers' and producers' societies (NUOVOIMAIE, PPL, GVL…).
Streaming & salesthe bulk of stream money — paid by your distributor, not a society

Two lines from the map above: the songwriting slice of your streams, and an estimate of neighbouring rights for the recordings you play on. The recording money your distributor pays for streams is not here — it is already in your distributor statements.
iHow this is calculated
Calculated automatically from 203,854 listens on ListenBrainz, an open listening panel that is much stronger in the UK and US than in most other countries — so elsewhere it is often an underestimate.
Plays are scaled to all services, then multiplied by a per-play rate and by your share of the songwriting.

On the radio
1 radio play found across 1 song in 1 country
Each of these should earn on both sides: the song (authors' society) and the recording (performers' and producers' societies).

Commercial radio, TV and most countries don't publish playlists, so a song missing here can still be played elsewhere. These plays are what authors' and performers' societies pay on — compare them with your statements.

What your concerts should pay you
Estimated · 2 of 59 shows found on setlist.fm since 2025€176 – €3,067for you, if every setlist was reported — 27 can still be reported
iHow this is estimated
Assumed 300–2,000 paid tickets per show (from how much your music is listened to) at a typical local price (e.g. €15–40), × each society's published concert tariff, × the share of the set that is your own songs, × your share of the writing (39%).
By currency: CA$59 – CA$947 · €139 – €2,474. Added up in euros at the European Central Bank reference rates of 2026-10-02.
Put your real ticket numbers on the shows page for a precise figure. Countries without a published tariff (e.g. the US) aren't counted.
