Championing music rights

We pay hundreds of thousands of members for the use of their recorded music through licensing in the UK and collecting royalties from around the world.

Ensuring our members’ talent and investment is fairly rewarded.

Get a licence

If you broadcast music, you’ll probably need a PPL licence. We license numerous radio stations, TV channels and some online services to include recorded music in their broadcasts.
