Distribution General Info

FILSCAP allocates royalty payments based on data it receives through submissions of playlists from producers and licensees, cue sheets for TV and film and self-monitored reports. While we also implement our own monitoring system, it would be impossible and cost-inefficient to monitor all musical works in various channels non-stop every day. Performances unaccounted for are compensated by Unlogged Performance Allocations (UPA).

In order to get paid, you need to join FILSCAP and make sure your works are registered with us. Please see our distribution schedule to know when you can expect to receive payments.

You may read and download the FILSCAP Distribution Rules if you feel you need more detailed information.
