What is publishing administration? +
It ensures your songwriting royalties are properly tracked, registered, and collected worldwide — across radio, TV, streaming, and live performance.
I've already received royalties from streaming platforms; are these the same as publishing royalties? +
No, they are not the same! Recording royalties and publishing royalties come from separate revenue pools. The royalties you receive from streaming platforms are recording royalties, if you haven’t registered publishing rights yet. To receive publishing royalties, you must register your works for publishing rights. APPLY NOW!
Are all songs eligible for music publishing? +
Only original compositions are eligible for registering music publishing rights. Cover songs, remixes, and remakes are not eligible for registration.
Who can register for publishing rights of a song? +
Only the rights holders of a song are eligible to register for its publishing rights. Typically, these rights holders include record labels, music publishers, and songwriters (composers and lyricists).
Do you register my compositions globally? +
Yes. We handle registrations with PROs, MROs, and DSPs around the world — giving your songs global reach and protection.
If I'm distributing my music through AMG, am I automatically registered for publishing rights? +
No, we won’t register your works without your request and/or permission.
How can I register my publishing rights through AMG? +
First, our team will assess the suitability, then develop a plan for registering publishing rights for you. For the registration process, you will need to provide details such as the names of the compositions, composers, publishers, and ISRC(s). For our existing clients, we extend invitations to those we find suitable for publishing rights registration. If you’re interested and haven’t received an invitation, please reach out to our team directly. Not a client yet but interested in registering your publishing rights? APPLY NOW!
What does it mean to back-claim royalties? How far back can I trace them? +
When you register publishing rights for a song, any royalties that were held by Performance Rights Organizations (PROs) or digital platforms for unregistered works may be released to you. Typically, these royalties are held for 1-2 year(s), depending on the PROs or platform. Please note, however, that successfully claiming back royalties is not guaranteed. Our team is committed to assisting you in this process and will work diligently to recover what you are owed. Not a client yet but interested in pursuing back royalties? APPLY NOW!
What if I’ve missed royalties in the past? +
We offer back-claim services to help recover uncollected publishing royalties — going back months or even years.
Can I land my songs in film or games? +
Yes. Our sync licensing team actively pitches your catalog to music supervisors for placement in film, TV, games, and commercials.
Do I get access to a publishing dashboard? +
Yes. Monitor your real-time earnings, sync history, and catalog status through a centralized publishing dashboard.
Can I manage co-writers and splits? +
