Unlimited releases for $3/month. You keep 90% of every stream. [ Start Distributing Today ](https://app.kinjari.com/register) [ Running a label? ](https://www.kinjari.com/music-distribution-for-independent-labels) 2-3 week delivery · Unlimited releases · 90% royalties 100+ Platforms 190+ Countries 2-3 Weeks Delivery 90% Royalties How Music Distribution Works ---------------------------- Music distribution is how your songs get from your computer to streaming platforms. Here's the short version. 1 ### You upload your music Upload your tracks, artwork, and metadata (song title, artist name, genre, release date) to your distributor. With Kinjari, this takes about 5 minutes per release. 2 ### Your distributor delivers it to stores The distributor sends your release to streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, TikTok, Beatport, and others. Most go live within a few days, full global rollout takes 2-3 weeks. 3 ### Fans stream your music Once live, anyone on those platforms can find and stream your tracks. Your music shows up in search, can be added to playlists, and appears on your artist profile. 4 ### You get paid royalties Every time someone streams your song, the platform pays a royalty. Your distributor collects that money and passes it on to you, minus their cut. With Kinjari, you keep 90% of everything you earn. Why do you need a distributor? Spotify, Apple Music, and other platforms don't accept uploads directly from artists. You need a distributor to act as the middleman. Think of it like a courier service for your music. You hand it off, they deliver it everywhere. Distribute to All Major Streaming Platforms ------------------------------------------- Upload your music once and reach listeners everywhere. We deliver to every major streaming service, digital store, and social platform. ### Streaming Giants Where most of the world listens to music [Apple Music](/apple-music-distribution) · [Spotify](/spotify-distribution) [YouTube Music](/youtube-music-distribution) · [Amazon Music](/amazon-music-distribution) [Deezer](/deezer-distribution) · [Tidal](/tidal-distribution) · Pandora ### Social & Viral Where your music becomes the soundtrack to viral content TikTok · Instagram Facebook · YouTube Snapchat · Reels ### DJ & Download Stores Genre-focused platforms for DJs and dedicated listeners [Beatport](/beatport-distribution) · [Juno Download](/juno-download-distribution) [Volumo](/volumo-distribution) · [7digital](/7digital-distribution) Plus 90+ additional platforms including regional services across Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas [ Start Your Global Distribution ](https://app.kinjari.com/register) [ View All Stores ](https://help.kinjari.com/article/15-where-will-my-music-be-distributed-to) Free Beatport Distribution for Electronic Music Artists ------------------------------------------------------- Get your electronic music on Beatport at no extra cost.

How to Choose a Music Distribution Service ------------------------------------------ Not all distributors are the same. Here's what actually matters. ### Pricing model Some distributors charge per release, some take a yearly fee, some are "free" but take a cut of your royalties. If you release music regularly, a flat monthly fee is almost always cheaper. Kinjari is $3/month for unlimited releases. ### Royalty split This is the percentage of streaming revenue you actually keep. Some "100% royalty" distributors make up for it with higher subscription fees or paid add-ons. Do the maths on your actual cost. ### Platform coverage Most distributors cover Spotify and Apple Music. The difference is in the long tail: Beatport, Tidal, regional platforms. Check whether the platforms you care about are included or cost extra. ### What happens when you leave Some distributors take your music down the moment you cancel. Others keep it live. With Kinjari, your music stays on every platform forever, even if you cancel. ### Hidden add-on costs Watch out for features that look included but actually cost extra. Beatport, YouTube Content ID, and lyrics distribution can all carry hidden fees. With Kinjari, Beatport and Content ID are included.
