Distribution & Stores
How long does it take for music to go live?
While we process uploads within 24-48 hours, digital stores like Spotify and Apple Music can take 1-2 weeks to fully index your release. We recommend uploading 3 weeks before your release date.
Pricing & Royalties
When do I receive my royalties?
Digital stores report sales with a 2-3 month delay. For example, earnings from January streams will typically appear in your dashboard around late March or April.
