6.1 The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Administrators and Clients with access to royalty earnings data through the Portal dashboard. Royalty statements will be made available on a periodic basis, reflecting collections received from Collecting Societies and other licensees during the applicable reporting period. The timing and frequency of royalty statement updates is subject to the reporting practices of individual Collecting Societies and may vary by Territory.

6.2 All royalty figures displayed on the Portal are subject to adjustment, correction, and audit at any time. Royalty earnings displayed on the Portal dashboard are estimates until confirmed by final statements from the relevant Collecting Society or licensee. The Company reserves the right to make corrections to any royalty statements at any time, including retroactive adjustments, in the event of errors, overpayments, chargebacks, or recoupment obligations.

6.3 Administrators may grant their Clients access to view their royalty data through the Portal dashboard. The scope of access granted to Clients is at the Administrator’s discretion, subject to the Portal’s available access controls. Administrators are responsible for managing Client permissions appropriately and for ensuring that Clients use the Portal in compliance with these Terms.

6.4 The Company will maintain royalty earnings records for each account in accordance with applicable law and the Company's data retention policies. Users may export their royalty data from the Portal in the formats available. The Company shall not be liable for any loss of data resulting from account termination due to User breach of these Terms.

How do I get the money?

7.1 A minimum account balance of Fifty United States Dollars (USD $50.00) in Net Royalties (the “Payout Threshold”) must be accumulated in Your account before a Payout may be automatically processed. Payout requests for amounts below the Payout Threshold will not be processed and will be held in Your account until the Payout Threshold is met. The Company reserves the right to adjust the Payout Threshold upon reasonable advance written notice to Users.

7.2 A transaction processing fee of Ten United States Dollars (USD $10.00) (the “Transaction Fee”) will be assessed and deducted from each Payout disbursement, regardless of the Payout method selected. This fee applies to all available Payout methods, including but not limited to:

  • ACH bank transfer (United States domestic accounts);

  • International wire transfer;

  • PayPal;

  • Payoneer;

  • Venmo (where available);

  • Any other electronic transfer or payment method made available through the Portal from time to time.

The Transaction Fee is applied per Payout transaction, not per payment method or per Composition. The Company reserves the right to modify the Transaction Fee upon reasonable advance written notice to Users.

7.3 The Company offers multiple Payout methods through the Portal, subject to availability in Your jurisdiction. You are responsible for ensuring that Your selected Payout method is accurate, active, and capable of receiving funds. The Company shall not be liable for any loss of funds arising from errors in Payout information provided by You. Available Payout methods may include:

  • ACH bank transfer — available for U.S.-based bank accounts; processing times typically 3–5 business days;

  • International wire transfer — available for non-U.S. bank accounts; processing times vary by country and receiving institution; additional fees charged by receiving banks may apply;

  • PayPal — available in jurisdictions where PayPal operates; subject to PayPal’s own terms, fees, and limits;

  • Other methods as may be added or removed from the Portal at the Company’s discretion.

The Company reserves the right to add, modify, or remove available Payout methods at any time. We will endeavor to provide reasonable notice of material changes to Payout methods.

7.4 Unless otherwise indicated, all royalty balances and Payouts are denominated in United States Dollars (USD). Royalties collected in foreign currencies will be converted to USD at the prevailing exchange rate at the time of conversion. The Company does not guarantee any particular exchange rate. Currency conversion costs, if any, will be deducted prior to crediting royalties to Your account.

7.5 You are solely responsible for all taxes, levies, and withholding obligations arising from royalty income received through the Portal, including but not limited to income taxes, self-employment taxes, and any applicable foreign taxes. The Company may be required by law to withhold applicable taxes from Payouts to certain Users, including non-U.S. residents subject to U.S. withholding tax obligations. The Company may require You to submit applicable tax forms (including IRS Form W-9 for U.S. persons and IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E for non-U.S. persons) as a condition of Payout processing. The Company will issue required tax reporting documents (such as Form 1099) as required by applicable law.

7.6 If You believe that a Payout amount is incorrect, You must notify the Company in writing within thirty (30) days of the Payout transaction date. Failure to notify the Company within this period shall be deemed acceptance of the Payout amount. The Company will investigate any disputed amounts in good faith and, if an error is confirmed, will issue a corrective payment or credit to Your account in the next available Payout cycle.

7.7 Royalty balances in accounts that remain inactive for a period of twenty-four (24) consecutive months without a Payout request or account activity may be subject to escheatment to the applicable state or governmental authority in accordance with applicable unclaimed property laws. The Company will make commercially reasonable efforts to notify You of any inactive account status before any escheatment obligation arises
