Advantages of Distributing with SoundCloud

In addition to getting your music on other platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, TikTok, and others, SoundCloud doesn’t ask for additional payment for features like:

• YouTube Content ID
• Split pay to pay your collaborators
• Unlimited number of Artists on your releases
• Sending releases to over 60+ stores
• Advanced fan insights

It usually takes a few days for your release to be reviewed and delivered to stores. Here are estimated delivery times for popular platforms:

• Apple Music: 2-3 days (some releases may take 1-2 extra weeks if reviewed further)
• Spotify: 2-3 business days
• YouTube Music: 2-3 days
