What's included in every plan

Your subscription includes: song search and rights identification, mechanical license facilitation, license documentation and compliance records, and metadata verification.

For streaming-only releases, no additional royalty payments are required from you — DSPs pay mechanical royalties directly to publishers via the MLC.

For download and physical releases, statutory mechanical royalties (currently 13.1¢/copy) are tracked and billed based on your actual sales volume.

Common questions

Instant access. The moment your payment processes you can search any song and generate a license record. No waiting, no manual approval. Your plan's monthly allowance resets on each billing date.
Yes. CoverClear facilitates compulsory mechanical licensing under Section 115 of the U.S. Copyright Act. This statutory right exists independent of the publisher's approval — it's federal law, not a handshake deal. Your license confirmation documents the statutory basis and the song's rights data (ISRC, MBID) at the time of licensing.
Yes, one click from your dashboard — no emails, no forms, no waiting period. Your access continues through the end of the billing period you already paid for.
