What Can Access Copyright Do For You?

Royalty Payments to Affiliates: We manage licensing, collection of licensing fees and distribution of royalties on your behalf so that you can focus on what you do best!

Publisher Repertoire Payment: You will also be eligible to receive our annual Publisher Repertoire Payment. Each year, all eligible affiliates receive a share of the Publisher Repertoire Payment based on revenue totals reported to us.

You will be eligible for the annual publisher repertoire payment as long as you affiliated with Access Copyright by the end of the previous year.

For example, if you become an affiliate of Access Copyright by the end of this year, you will be eligible for the Publisher Repertoire Payment starting in 2025.
