Stage 1Upload
Build the release
Add audio and artwork, then titles, artists, writers, producers and the territories you want. The builder flags anything a store would reject before you submit.
Distribute everywhere.Keep everythingyour music earns.
InterSpace Distribution delivers your singles, EPs and albums to Spotify, Apple Music, TikTok, YouTube and every store that matters, from $19 a year. Your masters stay yours, and on a paid plan the stores' royalties are all yours too.
Every store your listeners already use.
One upload reaches 150+ streaming, download, social, video and fitness platforms, plus the recognition systems that identify your recordings.
How it works
Upload once. We handle the rest.
Three stages between your finished master and your first statement. The order is the order the stores enforce, so the dashboard walks you through it in sequence.
Stage 2Deliver
Checked, then delivered
Our team reviews every release, then packages it with the metadata, artwork and credits each store expects. Typical time from approval to live is the same day.
Stage 3Get paid
Per store, per track
Stores report on a delay, usually one to three months behind the streams. Your dashboard updates as each store's reporting lands, and splits pay out automatically.
Read the full walkthrough, from account verification to your first withdrawal.
What's included
Distribution, publishing and promotion under one login.
Everything an independent artist or small label needs to release, protect and get paid, priced as a flat yearly fee rather than a cut of your earnings.
Worldwide distribution
Singles, EPs, albums and compilations to 150+ stores from one upload, delivered the same day, under your own label name.
Royalties and splits
One statement per store, track and country. Set a split once and every collaborator is paid their share automatically, with their own view of it.
Protection and Content ID
YouTube Content ID monetisation on every paid plan, copyright protection on every release, and takedowns when your work is used without permission.
Promotion and SmartLinks
Playlist and blog submission and a free SmartLink on every release. Playlist pitching, PR and influencer campaigns are in the Toolbox when you want more.
Publishing
Register your compositions and collect the songwriting side of your income: the performance and mechanical royalties the stores do not pay through distribution.
Wherever you work
A dashboard in 19 languages, an iOS app for releasing and checking earnings on the move, catalogue import, and a help centre with a real team behind it.
What makes InterSpace different.
Not just a pipe to the stores. A label’s toolkit, for a flat fee.
InterSpaceversus%Commission distributorsUpload-only distributorsInterSpace is a full-service distributor on its own technology.
Most distributors deliver a file and send a statement. InterSpace markets the release, promotes it, protects it and pays it out, on infrastructure the team wrote itself, through agreements it holds directly with the stores.
Marketing and promotion in-house
Playlist pitching to Apple Music and Spotify curators, PR and press, influencer campaigns on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, radio servicing and airplay on InterSpace Sound System. Playlist and blog submission is included on every paid plan.
Technology we built ourselves
The release builder that checks every upload against each store’s spec, same-day delivery, YouTube Content ID as a Certified Service Provider, splits paid automatically, SmartLinks, multi-currency payouts and a mobile app. Written in-house, not licensed from someone else.
Direct deals with the stores
InterSpace holds its own agreements with the platforms, including Africa-first services like Mdundo and JosPlay, and runs its own YouTube network. Your catalogue goes straight to the store, and nobody in between takes a cut.
A flat fee, never a percentage
From $19 a year. What the stores pay is yours to withdraw, in your currency, with one statement per month across every platform.

Running a sub-distribution business or a catalogue that needs wholesale terms? The Partner programme is by application, with a negotiated revenue share instead of a list price.
Starting out? There is a free tier. Three lifetime releases to 50 platforms with a SmartLink page and basic analytics. InterSpace keeps a 30% service fee, and Content ID, splits and multi-currency payouts are paid-plan features. Read about free distribution.
Prices in US dollars, billed yearly. Accounts are open from age 16. The binding terms are in the Distribution Agreement.
Your streams, your money, in full.
On the Artiste and Artist Plus plans InterSpace does not take a percentage of what the stores pay. Statements break it down by store, track and country, and every past period stays available to download.

Artists on InterSpace
What our users are saying.
Real artists and DJs releasing through InterSpace Distribution.
I prefer working with InterSpace Distribution to my former distro because it's clear they are interested in growing together. The spotlight thing they do is amazing. InterSpace Distribution don't just put out the music, they put out the artist as well.
ZigahnuArtist
Since discovering InterSpace Distribution it's been a total game changer. My songs are now on editorial playlists, getting played in the right places, and I've seen a clear boost in streams and numbers.
KapaxityArtist
At first when I signed up I wasn't too sure about the platform. Fast forward to three months later, I got over 1 million streams. It's such a huge deal for my career.

Questions
Before you start.
Do you take a cut of my royalties?
Not on a paid plan. Artiste and Artist Plus both keep 100% of the royalties the stores pay, and the yearly fee is the whole cost. The free tier keeps 70%.
Do I keep ownership of my music?
Yes. You keep your masters and your compositions. You grant only the licence needed to deliver and account for your music. If you leave, you take your catalogue with you.
How long until my release is live?
Releases can be live the same day they are approved. Most stores show them within hours, and a few take up to a couple of days to index. Allow more time for a pre-order or playlist consideration.
Can I bring my existing catalogue?
Yes. Bulk import brings your existing releases in, and your ISRCs and UPCs travel with them so your streaming history is not broken.
What happens if a store rejects my release?
You get the reason in the dashboard along with what to change. Fix it and resubmit, at no extra cost.
When do streams show up in my statement?
Stores report on a delay, usually one to three months behind the month of the streams. Your dashboard updates as each store's reporting arrives.
Can I take my music down?
Yes. Takedowns are requested from the dashboard and passed on to the stores. Removal timing is set by each store, not by us.
Who can open an account?
Anyone aged 16 or over, anywhere in the world. Account holders under 18 need a parent or guardian to accept the terms on their behalf.
Ready when you are
