Data-driven royalty calculation
Royalties are calculated at a track and individual performer level, based on music usage. We use cutting edge technology to match music usage with the PPL Repertoire Database.
Regular royalty payments
UK royalties are paid out annually in June, plus other regular payments including quarterly international payments.
International collections
We collect royalties for the use of recordings through agreements with other collective management organisations around the globe.
US tax status
We have Qualified Intermediary Status from the US tax authorities, meaning royalties collected by PPL are not subject to US withholding tax of 30%.
