How FlipDistro handles revenue splits, territory rules, and monthly royalty reporting to our artists and partners.
This page documents FlipDistro's standard commercial framework. For streaming partners (DSPs) like Afrofuse, these terms describe how royalties flow from platform-reported streams back to the rights holders we represent.
Section 1
FlipDistro operates a transparent revenue-share model. The split between FlipDistro and the artist depends on the subscription plan. Where a release has multiple contributors (producer, featured artist, label), predefined percentage splits are applied automatically and each recipient is paid directly to their registered payout method.
20%
FlipDistro
80%
Artist
No upfront cost. FlipDistro keeps 20%, the artist keeps 80% of royalties.
0%
FlipDistro
100%
Artist
Annual subscription. The artist keeps 100% of royalties — FlipDistro takes 0% commission.
0%
FlipDistro
100%
Artist
For labels managing 5-50 artists. 0% commission; 100% to the label/artist.
| Plan | Price | Commission | Limits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 20% | Royalty share model — 20% to FlipDistro, 80% to artist. 1 release per month included. |
| Pro | $19.99/yr | 0% | Unlimited releases, 0% commission, full analytics and Smart Links. |
| Label Starter | $49/mo | 0% | Up to 5 artists, 0% commission, label management tools. |
| Label Growth | $99/mo | 0% | Up to 20 artists, 0% commission, advanced analytics. |
| Label Pro | $199/mo | 0% | Up to 50 artists, 0% commission, full ecosystem access. |
When a release has multiple rightsholders — e.g. artist 60%, producer 30%, label 10% — FlipDistro applies the split automatically at payout. Each recipient is paid directly to their own registered payout method; no one has to collect and redistribute manually.
Section 2
Territory availability is controlled release-by-release. Music is delivered worldwide by default, but rights holders can restrict or expand availability per region using standard ISO territory codes.
Releases are delivered worldwide across all supported territories unless a restriction is specified at the release level.
Territory rights are managed per release. A single release can be worldwide, region-locked, or excluded from specific countries using ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes.
Territory rights support start and end dates, allowing time-limited licensing windows per region.
Takedowns can be requested territory-by-territory. Content is removed from the affected platforms within 7-14 days.

Section 3
How the Data Flows
For streaming partners (DSPs), the data flows in one direction: the DSP reports per-song stream counts and royalties to FlipDistro. FlipDistro then reconciles that data against platform reports, applies any commission and splits, and pays each rights holder their share.
Monthly royalty reports generated from streaming platform data.
Reports are accessible via dashboard and downloadable as CSV/PDF where available.
Statements are delivered to partners by the 15th of each month for the prior month's activity.
Streaming platform data from Spotify, Apple Music, Boomplay, Audiomack, and aggregated DSP reports.
