Send the song. Know the clock.
Digital delivery is live through MYDistribution's delivery rail. Physical records are a waitlist until a fulfillment partner exists. Nothing on this page spends money by itself.
Digital distribution
A store, sometimes called a DSP, is a service like Spotify or Apple Music. MYDistribution hands your package to its digital delivery rail. The rail then offers it to the stores you picked. Each store still has its own review.
Do this in order
- 1Finish the release
Add the master, 3000×3000 art, credits, and writer or composer splits that add to 100%. An empty ISRC is filled with the next US-DEL code when you submit.
- 2Spend one release credit
One credit costs $10. It pays for sending one release down the digital delivery rail. It is not a royalty and it is not subtracted from the 98% later.
- 3MYDistribution checks the package
The server checks the files, stores, splits, ISRC, and that a payout account is ready. A failed handoff tries to return the credit. A returned credit is still not a royalty.
- 4The rail takes the package
A delivery ID means the rail accepted the package. It does not mean Spotify, Apple, or anyone else has pressed play.
- 5Each store reviews on its own
Use the planning windows below so you do not announce a live date the store has not confirmed. Status on the delivery page updates when the rail reports it.
- 6Money shows up later
Stores report royalties on their own schedule, often weeks after a stream. When a report is saved, the published deal is 98% you and 2% MYDistribution. Stripe Connect sends the queued share after the payout job runs.
Store list and planning windows
Windows are how long we ask you to leave before release day. Signed-in accounts also see whether the store is in the live catalog. A missing live mark means the catalog did not list it for your account.
| Store | Plan ahead | Content ID flag in catalog | What to expect |
|---|---|---|---|
Spotify | Plan at least 7 days | No | Spotify's own pitch tool asks for at least 7 days before release day. MYDistribution does not submit that tool for you. |
Apple Music | Plan about 2 weeks | No | Apple editorial is a separate request. Delivery does not mean an editor added the song. |
YouTube Music | Plan 7–14 days | Catalog says yes | YouTube Music delivery is not the same thing as a YouTube Content ID claim. |
Amazon Music | Plan 7–14 days | No | Amazon can still be reviewing after your chosen date. |
Tidal | Plan 7–14 days | No | Use the same master and ISRC you sent everywhere else. |
Deezer | Plan 7–14 days | No | A planning window is not a promise the song is live. |
TikTok | Plan about 2 weeks | No | Short-form audio. A sound spreading is not something the delivery rail can promise. |
Instagram / Facebook | Plan about 2 weeks | No | This lane is for the audio library, not for buying ads. |
Pandora | Plan about 2 weeks | No | Radio-style services can trail the streaming stores. |
SoundCloud | Plan about 7 days | No | SoundCloud delivery is separate from uploading the file yourself. |
Napster | Plan about 2 weeks | No | Optional in the catalog. Leave it off if you do not need it. |
Anghami | Plan about 2 weeks | No | Optional. Useful when your listeners are in that region. |
Physical distribution
Vinyl, CDs, and cassettes need a factory, a warehouse, and shops. This site does not run those. You can join a waitlist so a person knows you want them when a partner is real.
What the waitlist does
- 1Tell us the object
Vinyl, CD, cassette, or a bundle. Add a rough quantity and where you hope to sell it.
- 2We file a waitlist, not an order
Nothing is sent to a pressing plant. No money is taken on this form.
- 3A person replies only if a partner can do the job
MYDistribution does not warehouse records and does not have a signed physical fulfillment partner on this site.
- 4A quote would be a separate bill
Manufacturing, shipping, and retail cuts belong to that future quote. They are not the $10 digital credit and not the 2% streaming share.

Report a claim in plain language.
Public-play money, and the partner path we do not pretend to have.
Optional writer-side help, explained before any signature.
A checklist and a calendar that does not promise editors.
What still needs a person
MYDistribution cannot see Spotify, Apple, or any other store's preferred or editorial decision. A pitch request is a note to our desk, not a placement.
There is no pressing plant, warehouse, or physical distributor connected. The physical form is a waitlist.
Official Content ID partner access is not connected. We store your yes or no and can pass it to the delivery rail. YouTube decides claims.
No collection society mandate is signed through this product. The form does not enroll you in SoundExchange or any other society.
No publishing-admin partner is live. The page explains the steps and saves an introduction request.
No brand portal is connected. Requests wait for a person. Nothing is pitched to a company automatically.
Placement cards are examples so you can practice the request. They are not live jobs. Cue briefs are saved for a person. No license is created.
Stripe Connect auto-pay sends the account owner's queued earnings. Paying each collaborator into their own bank needs their Connect account and a confirmed split.
