Sound Royalties and AdRev announce marketing relationship to benefit content creators on YouTube

MUMBAI: Specialty music financing company Sound Royalties is pleased to announce its new strategic marketing partnership with AdRev to collectively help music professionals and creatives access royalty financing, while retaining the rights to their work.

AdRev works directly with music rights holders on YouTube, Facebook and other online platforms, ensuring monetization and collection on behalf of labels, artists and other content creators. Through this new strategic relationship, AdRev is now providing its clients with the ability to benefit from Sound Royalties’ tailored financing and cash flow solutions.

Based on their earnings from YouTube and other platforms, content creators will be able to access advances of $5,000 to $10 million. Sound Royalties’ services also allow creatives to retain their copyrights and receive overflow income, an extreme rarity in the music financing space.
