Ditto Pro allows artists that write their own music to collect their publishing royalties through Ditto Publishing.

Publishing collection societies only accept musical work registrations that credit the actual songwriters - this means that we can't register Musical Works on behalf of third-party representatives (such as a record label or a manager).

However, record labels and managers with a Pro or Label subscription plan with Ditto Music can submit musical works on behalf of their artists - but the writer will collect their royalties directly.


Here’s how it works.

If you have a Pro or Label plan, you can register a track for publishing for any artist on your account.

1. Head to the Publishing tab on your dashboard and click Register Song.

2. Select Add Work and pick a new release to register.

3. Submit their details as a ‘co-writer’ and add the share they control. You can assign a 100% share to one co-writer if necessary.

Make sure to provide their full legal name and correct email address.

4. We’ll then contact them by email prompting them to sign up to Ditto Music Publishing for free.

We only take our 10% commission from royalties and they will not have to pay an annual subscription fee.
