Royalty Policy

The Money dashboard shows aggregate earnings, recent activity, and statement-level detail. During private beta, figures may be demo or placeholder data - they are clearly marked where present.

Real royalty data requires partner DSP reports to be ingested and reconciled. Until ingestion is connected for a given DSP, that DSP's earnings are not authoritative.

Estimates may be shown before statements are finalized. Final royalties are the values recognized in a closed statement period and may differ from estimates.

• Platform fees and commissions, where applicable, are described on the Pricing page and in your active plan.
• Royalty splits are honored based on signed split sheets in your account.
• Label commission, recoupment, and advance handling are placeholders until your specific arrangement is configured.

• Payouts require identity / tax-status verification and a connected payment provider.
• Payout thresholds and currencies will be displayed in the Money dashboard once activated.
• Bank and payment details are intended to be handled by secure third-party providers; TMS does not store raw banking data.

If a statement appears incorrect, open a dispute via the Money dashboard or email finance@themusicstandard.com with the statement ID and the disputed lines. Disputes that depend on DSP corrections are subject to the DSP's processes.
