Turn Your Songs & Lyrics Into Songwriting Royalties

In the music industry, songwriting royalties are how songwriters and lyric writers get paid for the songs they write.

When songs are sold, downloaded or played in public, Rights Organizations collect licensing fees from retailers that sold the song, and the radio stations and public venues where the song was played or performed.

The Rights organizations then pay a licensing fee to music publishers, who then pay the songwriters and lyricists. 

Songwriters and lyricists can collect songwriting royalties for many years, from just one hit song - even one that achieves modest success.

1. Performance Royalties

Performance royalties are earned when a song is played or performed in public, such as on the radio, on TV, in a concert, or any public performance of the song.
2. Mechanical Royalties

Mechanical royalties are earned when a recorded version of a song is sold in any form.

3. Printed Edition Royalties

Printed edition royalties are earned when a printed version of a song is sold, such as sheet music,  a songbook, or any type of printed anthology.

4. Foreign Royalties

Foreign royalties are earned when music publishers collect rights fees for songs played overseas.
