How Royalties Work. Do they come from Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, etc.?

Each SongShare is a piece of a royalty stream that could be coming from a plethora of differing places, it all depends on what the artist/seller has actually decided to sell through SongVest.

SongShare owners receive royalties generated by the song they own shares in. These revenues come from a variety of industry sources like:.

• Streaming platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music)

• Sync licensing (TV, movies, commercials)

• Digital downloads

• Mechanical royalties


Royalty Timing: Royalties must be collected and processed by distributors before being paid out. This means payouts typically occur every two months. Although there could be unforeseen irregularities and delays. 

Dashboard Visibility: Users can see past royalties, upcoming cycles, and their payout history in their SongVest dashboard.
