Does Deezer sell your music via?

When you distribute your music through Sound Legends, your music will not be available for download.

Pay Rate (How Much Deezer Pays You)

Paid Streams: For songs streamed via streaming or tethered downloads, you receive a proportionate share of Deezer’s monthly advertising revenue. The actual amount varies and depends on the ratio of advertising revenue to your total number of streams in Deezer in a given month.

There are a few important things to keep in mind about payment for customer streams in Deezer. For international streaming, local laws may require that before remitting the money to Sound Legends, Deezer must deduct sums for applicable local taxes or other tariffs depending on the territory where you distribute your music.

Also, the current amount paid to you for international streaming of your music may reflect a deduction for publishing royalties as Deezer pays those royalties to local copyright right societies and publishers (the “Copyright Deduction”) and then the copyright societies and/or publishers pay out those royalties to the rights holders (even if you are the rights holder and/or control the underlying rights to the composition). The Copyright Deduction may vary per country depending on local laws and customs at the time of payment and are subject to change.

GOOD TO KNOW:

To make sure that you are collecting these publishing royalties on compositions that you own or control, we’ve built our Publishing Administration to get songwriters (the person or entity that controls the copyright to the lyrics and melody of the song) all their royalties from sales and use of their songs around the world. To learn more about the additional separate royalties you earn as a Songwriter, see our Help section.

As always, Sound Legends pays you 100% of the proceeds that you earn on your streaming sales through Deezer worldwide after these applicable deductions are applied.
