Services
Collect every stream of income.
Distribution is only half the story. Salute collects every royalty stream your catalog generates — from compositions to masters to UGC.
One upload, registered everywhere.
You deliver your work once. We convert it to CWR — the industry-standard format — and register it with every organization where you're entitled to income. Performing right and mechanical right handled separately, the way it should be.
Performance rights organizations
- Registered worldwide from a single submission.
- Radio, TV, live, and public performance royalties collected everywhere.
- Writers, IPI numbers, and splits enriched up front.
Neighbouring rights organizations
- Registered around the world.
- Master-side income from radio, TV, and public spaces collected.
- Featured artists, session musicians, and producers covered.
How collection works.
Distribute
Your master goes out to 200+ DSPs worldwide — one upload, all metadata included.
Enrich
Which rights do you represent? We enrich your data — writers, IPI numbers, and splits — so every claim sticks.
Register & claim
We register your works and recordings with societies worldwide and actively claim every missing cent.
Payout
Everything lands in one statement and one payout — with a full audit trail per source line.
Coverage.
Performing rights and mechanical rights are two separate mandates — and they can be redirected independently per territory. That means you can place exactly the right you want with the right society, without leaving gaps.
| Territory | Performing right | Mechanical right | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Germany | GEMA | GEMA | Full carve-out from Buma and Stemra; GEMA handles both rights itself. |
| United Kingdom | PRS | Stemra | Only the performing right is redirected — saves the second MCPS fee and avoids a gap in UK mechanical income. |
| United States | Buma | The MLC | The MLC covers US digital audio mechanicals only; US performing right moves to ASCAP once the EIN is in place. |
| Rest of world | Buma | Stemra | Default — the safety-net layer via reciprocity agreements. |
Direct where the money is.
We don't collect through a chain of intermediaries — we collect directly in the markets that earn the most. Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States run through the local society itself. The rest of the world stays covered via Buma/Stemra.
The usual route
Your royalties pass through sub-publishers, collecting agents, and regional hubs before they reach you. Every hop takes a cut — and adds months of delay.
Middlemen
−10% … −15%
per hop
Up to 12–18 months later, minus every middleman's share.
With Salute
We hold direct memberships with GEMA, PRS, and The MLC — and Buma/Stemra covers the rest of the world. One hop: the society pays Salute, Salute pays you.
