SESAC will begin monthly royalty distributions starting Oct. 31. The new program includes domestic, terrestrial radio performance royalties, and makes SESAC the only PRO offering songwriters and publishers monthly payments. In the past, these distributions were paid quarterly.
The organization plans to roll out monthly royalty distributions to other performance platforms in the near future.
“SESAC is thrilled to offer our talented affiliates the opportunity to receive royalty compensation for their work in the fastest, most accurate way possible,” said Pat Collins, SESAC’s President and Chief Operation Officer. “The new monthly royalty distribution system is yet another example of SESAC’s dedication to providing the most comprehensive and advanced service to our songwriters and music publishers.”
SESAC utilizes Broadcast Data Systems (BDS) to monitor radio performances. It has also fully integrated fingerprinting technology into its survey and distribution systems.
Headquartered in Nashville, the company also has offices in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Miami and London.
