Pricing
We earn when you earn.
There is no upfront fee, subscription, or exclusivity. We take a 15% commission on performance royalties and 20% on mechanicals, only after collecting those royalties for you.
Our promise
Two rates. Everything included.
Both rates include the full service — collecting, registering, issuing statements, and recovering your back catalog. When we collect nothing, you pay nothing.
Performance royalties
We collect through your PRO and performing-rights societies worldwide. You retain 85%.
Mechanical royalties
We collect US and worldwide mechanicals at the source. You retain 80%.
Upfront
You pay no signup fee, subscription, or annual minimum. We receive payment only after you do.
Sync
Sync placements run 20% when you source the deal and 35% when we source it for you; other income categories are 15%. Payouts go out quarterly by ACH, PayPal, or Stripe once your balance reaches $25. The full schedule is in our Terms.
What's included
- Registration with every PRO, mechanical society, and CMO we work with
- Artist portal with full earnings transparency
- Quarterly royalty collection and distribution
- Back-catalog audit and recovery
- Split sheet and co-writer tracking
- 100% copyright ownership retained — always
No exclusivity
30 days' notice ends the agreement. We continue collecting royalties earned during the term for 12 months, then everything is yours again.
Commission only
Found Royalties gets paid solely from money actually collected. When a society pays nothing for your song, we take nothing from it.
Direct society relationships
Our filings use our own publisher memberships with each society we serve — there's no intermediary taking from the writer share.
Full ownership, always
Your rights are administered by Found Royalties, never owned by us. You retain 100% of your copyrights indefinitely.
