Frequently Asked Questions

We distribute to hundreds of different outlets and digital service providers. To check out our list of current partners, click here. We are always adding new distribution partners to our network.*

Through Starter you will have a non-exclusive deal where you are still allowed to work with other distributors in addition to us. You own your music and keep your rights. We’re only the platform that helps you get your music out there and gives you advanced technology to help elevate your career.

Symphonic provides many different services including Video Distribution, YouTube and SoundCloud Monetization, Publishing Administration and Sync Licensing. Signing up is only the beginning!

Symphonic Starter gives you more than competitors like DistroKid, CDBaby and TuneCore. You receive advanced technology that shows stream performance, TikTok analytics, YouTube videos created using your content, playlist placements and the ability to split royalties to collaborators and more. You are also able to have a custom C and P line and choose the partners to deliver to.

Starter clients must utilize one primary artist on all releases under the account. You can have unlimited releases with that primary artist and bring on as many featuring and remixer artists as you’d like.

There are no refunds once you join Starter. If you cancel your account, you will have access to it until the term of one year expires, at which point your content will be taken down.

Symphonic issues payments on a monthly basis. You may review our payment schedule here. In order to collect payments, you must provide up-to-date payment and tax information. Your balance will remain active on your account until payments are claimed.

Only $19.99 a year to upload unlimited music! Beatport, a specialty partner, requires an additional $10/month fee.

You will keep 100% of royalties from the distribution of your music to Apple, Spotify, Deezer, Pandora and many more. Like most of the industry, there are some percentage fees for User Generated Content revenue collection such as YouTube.

Symphonic will not pitch your content to DSPs under the Starter plan. Some additional marketing services are available for a fee.

This plan is a DIY (Do It Yourself) plan that allows you to get started on your journey in the music industry. Starter is fee-based ($19.99 per year for a primary artist and unlimited releases*). Partner is by application only and includes personalized support, marketing to DSPs and unlimited artists. Partner clients are charged a percentage fee.

Almost all genres are accepted for Symphonic Starter. Classical music is not an ideal fit for Starter unless the artist plays all of the instruments. Electronic artists must pay a $10/month fee to access Beatport.
