What is the Creator Rights Agency and what services does it provide?
The Creator Rights Agency (CRA) is a state-of-the-art service allowing creators to submit requests directly to the CRA team of licensing experts. The CRA’s Team will then use data and help Creators negotiate deals, execute deals, and get paid up-front fees and any backend royalties owed to them.
How much does it cost to sign up for the Creator Rights Agency?
It’s free for anyone who is a BeatStars Professional Tier Subscriber and BeatStars Publishing Member to sign up. We only get paid a 10% fee for deals that we close for you. That 10% is only applicable to Advances and any Master Points that we negotiate. We do not take ownership of any of your work, take any percentage of your publishing, or take money from your beat sales.
Can I still register for the Creator Rights Agency if I’m not from the U.S.?
Yes, we provide help to our customers globally who are subscribed to both the BeatStars Professional plan and BeatStars Publishing.
What's the difference between Beatstars Publishing and the Creator Rights Agency?
