VMN Music pays artists with a Spotlight by VMN Music plann for their music streams via a revenue per unique streams fan-powered royalties based model by distributing our monthly net revenue from listeners premium subscription fees and ads.
Our net revenue is a subtraction of the money we collect but don’t get to keep which includes payments for things like taxes, credit card processing fees, and billing, along with some other things.
Stream Revenue is calculated by tallying the total number of unique song streams in a given month.
Since January 1st, 2020 our radio stations became Royalty free stations. As we strive to continue to support you and your music, we will revisit this soon.
However, this does not affect your music streaming on VMN Music.
Artists are paid once monthly in many cases. The amount recieved is determined by the revenue & stream share and your unique streams.

If your label or music distributor is in charge of your Spotlight by VMN Music account, exactly when and how much you are paid is determined by them.
