How can I end my PPL membership?

If you are a recording rightsholder and wish to stop being a member of PPL you can do so by writing to PPL, giving six months’ notice to terminate. Upon termination, all rights granted to PPL shall be re-assigned to you and any optional mandates shall end.

You can also terminate each optional New Media Rights and Programme Distribution Rights mandate individually by giving six months’ written notice. The International Collections Mandate can be terminated only on 31 December in any calendar year by giving at least three months’ written notice, except in the first calendar year, when at least six months’ notice must be given.

If you are a performer and want to terminate your International Performer Mandate you can do so by writing to PPL to give notice. The International Performer Mandate can be terminated only on 31 December in any calendar year by giving at least three months’ notice, except in the first calendar year, when at least six months’ notice must be given.

If you entered into an International Performer Mandate before 1 January 2012 then different termination requirements may apply. Please contact Member Services team on 020 8068 1054. You will be entitled to receive PPL royalties as normal up to the date of termination.
