ROYALTY LOCK
Free royalty audit

Find out which royalty sources cannot pay you yet.

Nine plain questions. No card, no account. You get a score, the exact list of gaps in your catalog, and what to do about each one.

01
Are you signed up with a PRO as a writer?

BMI, ASCAP, SESAC. This is the writer half of your song.

02
Are you also signed up as a publisher at that PRO?

Every song is two halves. The writer sign-up only collects one of them.

03
Are your songs registered with The MLC?

The MLC pays US streaming mechanicals on the song itself.

04
Are your recordings registered with SoundExchange?

This is money on the recording, not the song. It is a separate account.

Do you know the ISRC for every release?

Your distributor issues it. It is the code every recording rail matches on.

Names, IPI numbers, and percentages for every writer.
