Sandbox Stripe checkout is live on this preview (test cards only). Prices in USD; taxes may apply in live mode later. Membership is guidance and checklists — not publishing admin. Admins like Songtrust or TuneCore Publishing charge setup fees plus a percentage of royalties; we do not offer that.

What's included

Same core guide either way.

  • Ordered guide: pick your lane → PRO writer (ASCAP or BMI) → The MLC → SoundExchange → register/match works
  • Plain-language notes on why each pot exists (education only)
  • Official URLs for each step (last-verified dates when published)
  • Per-release checklist template
  • Optional module: when people pay publishing admins instead (published vendor prices as market facts, not advice)

What's never included

  • Filing or correcting registrations as your agent
  • Logging into your PRO, MLC, SoundExchange, or distributor accounts
  • Claiming unmatched, black-box, or market-share royalties for you
  • Any success fee, recovery fee, or percentage of royalties
  • Receiving, holding, or routing your money
  • Split-dispute advice or ownership opinions
  • A promise that you are owed a dollar amount
  • Legal, tax, or financial advice

FAQ

Pricing questions

Can I choose either plan?

Yes. The site shows both so you can pick $49 one-time or $12/mo. Each button opens Stripe Checkout for that plan.

Is there a success fee or royalty cut?

No. Never. You pay only the listed product price.

Is this Songtrust / TuneCore Publishing?

No. Those are publishing admins that collect for a fee plus a royalty percentage. Royalty Ready is self-serve education. Different product, different liability.

When can I pay?

Now on this preview — in Stripe test mode. Use a Stripe test card (for example 4242…). Live charges are not enabled yet.
