PAYOUT TIMELINE
What "up to 100% payout" actually means.
From stream to bank account: four hops. We control only the last one — and pay out as fast as possible there. The first three are DSP- and distributor-driven (industry standard).
01 · Day 0
Stream gets played
Your track plays on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, or one of the 38+ DSPs in your distribution network.
02 · 1–3 months later
DSP reports + pays
Each DSP sets its own reporting cycle — typically 1–3 months of lag between stream and royalty statement at our sub-distributor. We can't influence that lag; it's industry standard.
03 · Monthly (1st–15th)
Sub-distributor processes
Statement generated on the 1st of each month, review window 1st–10th, payout to OGR initiated 10th–15th. If a minimum-payout threshold applies: your balance carries forward to the next monthly cycle — no earnings lost.
04 · ≤ 24h from receipt
OGR pays you
Once our sub-distributor pays us, the last hop runs in under 24h. SEPA 1–2 business days. Threshold on our side: $50.
Realistic expectation: 2–4 months from first stream to money in your bank. That's industry standard — we're the 24h fast-lane at the end of the chain, not across the whole pipeline.
COMPARISON

WHAT DISTRIBUTION COSTS
One pricing model, no traps — how pricing works with OGRECORDS™.
Music distribution with OGRECORDS™ costs exactly one thing: a 10 % revenue share on what you earn — nothing else. No annual fee, no setup, no per-release cost. You only pay when you actually earn, and you keep 100 % of your masters. Your streaming income is recorded daily, and on our side the payout usually runs within 24 hours — the exact path from stream to bank account is laid out in the earnings calculator right on this page.
The difference is the model. Instead of a subscription or a fixed per-release fee you'd pay even without a single stream, our share only kicks in from the first euro you actually earn. We call it "up to 100 % payout": what finally reaches you depends only on the DSP and sub-distributor deductions each platform sets independently of us — our own payout threshold sits at $50.
What this means for you as an artist: no upfront risk, no minimum term. Not one earned cent disappears into a subscription you can't refinance in a slow month, and you can switch any time with no penalty. How 10 % adds up against classic providers over a year is visible in the calculator — and every detail on delivery and payout lives on /distribution.
PRICING FAQ
What artists actually ask.
Yes. 10% of your gross royalties — no setup fee, no subscription, no hidden sync fees. UGC (YouTube Content ID, Meta Rights Manager) is charged at 20% due to manual claim handling, which is the industry standard.
