Payout timing
Stores and platforms report revenue on their own cycle, typically 45–90 days after the month in which the streams happened. As soon as a report lands, we ingest it, match it to your ISRCs and UPCs and reconcile it line by line.
Your statement is then published in your account with a full breakdown by store, territory, release and track. Payouts are released monthly once your balance passes the US$20 minimum, via PayPal, bank wire or crypto (USDT/USDC) in 190+ countries. Balances below the minimum roll over to the next cycle.
Pricing FAQs
How much does Dorpon Media cost?
Nothing upfront. Joining, uploading and distributing your catalogue is free — there is no signup fee, no per-release fee and no annual subscription. Dorpon Media only earns when you earn, taking a 20% share of net revenue collected from stores and platforms.
Is music distribution really free?
Yes. Distribution to Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon, Deezer, TikTok and 150+ other stores and platforms is included at no cost. You pay nothing out of pocket; the revenue share is deducted from royalties after they are collected.
What revenue share do I keep?
You keep 80% of net revenue on distribution, YouTube Content ID and video distribution. Publishing administration is 85/15. Net revenue means what stores and platforms actually pay after their own deductions.
When do I get paid?
Payouts run monthly. Statements are published in your account once DSP reports are reconciled, and money is released via PayPal, bank wire or crypto once your balance passes the US$20 minimum.
Are there any hidden fees?
No. There are no takedown fees, no storage fees, no chart-registration fees and no charges for extra release stores or territories. Bank wires may incur third-party correspondent bank charges, which are set by the banks, not by Dorpon Media.
Do I keep ownership of my music?
Always. You keep 100% of your masters, publishing rights and metadata. Dorpon Media holds a non-exclusive licence to distribute and monetise, and you can request a takedown at any time.
