AUTOMATED ROYALTY SPLITS

Automated Royalty Splits That Run Themselves

LabelGrid’s automated royalty splits divide earnings among contributors by configurable percentages, calculated automatically every payment cycle. Set splits per release or per artist. When DSP payments arrive, every party’s share is computed and ready to pay.

Automated royalty split configuration across contributors

SPLIT CONFIGURATION

Configure Splits Once, Apply Every Cycle

Define each contributor’s percentage per release or per artist. Your label’s distribution fee and recoupment terms live in the same configuration. Set it once and every future payout cycle applies it automatically.

MULTI-PARTY PAYOUTS

Every Contributor Paid Their Share

When statements process, each party sees exactly what they earned and why: platform, streams, rate, and share. Branded statements go out by automated email, or export to CSV and PDF. No spreadsheets and no manual math.
