What the $39 Label Plan Includes
The base subscription covers the catalogue capacity and label workflows most independent teams need from day one.
$39/Month
Your first 200 catalogue tracks are included in the base subscription.
Keep 90%
Kinjari takes a 10% commission on royalties collected for your catalogue.
Unlimited Team Members
Work with one owner plus as many admins and members as the label needs.
Submission Approvals
Artists upload audio, artwork and metadata; your label reviews each release before distribution.
Splits & Recoupment
Set collaborator shares, produce artist statements and track advances as they recoup.
DJ & download stores
Volumo delivery is ready to go. Beatport is available for catalogues that get Beatport approval. Both sit alongside Spotify, Apple Music and 100+ other stores - no separate add-on fee.
100GB Storage
Keep artwork, contracts, press kits and release files alongside the catalogue.
Branded store pages
A branded Beatport label page is a separate application for catalogues that fit. Beatport decides approval on both store delivery and branding.

Ready to run approvals, splits and store delivery in one Label account?
Start Your Label for $39/MonthControl Every Artist Submission
Give roster artists their own login so they can upload the audio, artwork, credits and release metadata you need. Each submission waits for label review before it reaches Kinjari.
Your team can correct metadata, approve the release or reject it with a clear reason. Owners control billing; admins manage artists, releases and reporting; members get limited access. There is no per-seat charge.
Submission Flow
Revenue Distribution
Statements, Splits and Recoupment
Set each track's shares across the label, artists, producers and featured performers. Kinjari calculates the split as store revenue arrives, so reporting follows the percentages saved against the release.
Record an advance against an artist or release and track the outstanding balance as royalties recoup it. Generate per-artist statements and export the data to Excel when your accountant or roster needs it.
Beatport and Volumo for Label catalogues
Volumo delivery is included with every Label account and is ready to go. Beatport is also available on the Label plan, but Beatport always has to approve the catalogue before releases go live there - it is not automatic.
For electronic catalogues that fit Beatport, you can optionally apply through Kinjari for a branded label page. That branding application is separate from store-delivery approval. Rock, pop and hip-hop labels still get full delivery to 100+ stores without needing Beatport.

The plan includes your first 200 catalogue tracks, unlimited team members, artist submission approvals, royalty split reporting, advance recoupment, Volumo delivery (ready to go), Beatport delivery subject to Beatport approval, 100GB storage and five label analytics dashboards.
Invite artists to upload their audio, artwork, credits and release metadata. The release enters your label queue, where an authorised team member can edit it, approve it or reject it with a reason before Kinjari reviews it for distribution.
Beatport store delivery on the Label plan always requires Beatport approval - it is never automatic. Separately, you can apply through Kinjari for a branded Beatport label page if your catalogue fits. Kinjari reviews the branding application before forwarding it, and Beatport makes the final decision on both delivery and branding.
There is no per-seat charge. A label account has one owner and can add unlimited admins and members with different access levels.
The account includes catalogue, artist, release and revenue reporting. You can create per-artist royalty statements and export dashboard data to CSV or multi-sheet XLSX.
The first 200 tracks are included. Tracks 201-400 cost $0.15 each per month, tracks 401-1,000 cost $0.10 each per month, and tracks above 1,000 cost $0.05 each per month. These bands are cumulative.
Yes. The first label is included and each additional imprint costs $9/month. An imprint can have its own branding, catalogue, roster, analytics and Beatport application.
Existing releases stay live forever. You keep receiving royalties at 90%. You cannot upload new releases or use active-plan tools until you resubscribe.
