When you post a track you made with other artists, you set the split once. Every dollar that track earns from your fans is divided by it automatically, every day. No invoices, no chasing anyone.
A collab can't publish at 95% or 110%. The app checks.
Shares settle at the end of each day. No invoices, no chasing anyone.
Your cut shows in your own Live Track Earnings.
What a split is
A split is the share of a track's earnings each collaborator gets. The lead artist, a featured artist, the producer, a co-writer. You name who was on the record and what percent is theirs. The percentages have to add up to exactly 100.
Fans still pay the way they always do on Creator Connect: a Premium fan's daily amount goes to the artists they actually played, by listening time. A split only changes who gets the money a track earns, not how much it earns. How fans pay artists →
Type what a track earned today and the percentages. Example numbers are filled in.
Illustrative. Amounts are rounded to the cent here; on Creator Connect the full-precision shares settle at the end of each day.
How to set it up
Post it the same way you post any song. Before it goes live you'll see a Collaborators step.
Search collaborators by their Creator Connect name. If someone isn't on Creator Connect yet, invite them by email so their share has somewhere to land.
Give each person their share. The track won't publish until the numbers add to 100%.
Each person gets a notification showing the track and their percentage. One tap to accept. Any disagreement gets sorted before a single stream is paid out.
From the first play, the track's daily earnings are divided by the split. Everyone sees their own share in Live Track Earnings.
Rules to know
You can't publish a collab with 95% or 110% assigned. The app checks.
Payouts go to accounts. A collaborator who hasn't joined yet is invited, and their share is held for them until they do.
Splits apply from the first stream, so nobody is paid “later” for plays that already happened.
Once a split is accepted it's locked. A change is proposed by the uploader and only takes effect when every collaborator accepts it.
Your Live Track Earnings show your cut of each collab. Nobody has to ask the uploader what the song made.
A collab is one track to the listener. It earns what any track earns; the split just routes it.
Quick answers
The people on the record, before uploading. There's no required formula. A common starting point is the lead artist and the producer taking the biggest shares, features next, then co-writers. Talk it through first; the app just enforces whatever you agree on.
Add them by email. They get an invite, and their share is held until they create an account and accept. Nothing is lost while they sign up.
No. The split is part of publishing a collab, so every stream from the first one is paid correctly. Posting it as a solo track and “fixing it later” leaves your collaborators unpaid for those early plays.
No. A Premium fan's daily amount still goes to the artists they played, by listening time. The split only divides the track's portion among the people who made it.
Post it once, from one account, with everyone listed. One track, one split, one set of earnings. Two uploads would compete with each other for the same fans' listening time.
On Creator Connect your fans' subscription money goes to the artists they actually listen to. A split takes what your track earned that day and divides it among everyone on the record.
Post the collab with the split set. Everyone on the record gets paid the day fans press play.
