4) WHEN ARE ROYALTIES PAID?

A: Diistro will automatically deposit your royalties into your PayPal account on the last day of the month following the last day of calendar quarter that is subsequent to the calendar quarter in when your earnings accrued.  That’s a lot of fancy accounting speak, so here is a plain English summary of what this means:

  • For earnings during the period January 1 to March 31, payment to you shall be made by July 31

  • For earnings during the period April 1 to June 30, payment to you shall be made by October 31

  • For earnings during the period July 1 to September 30, payment to you shall be made by January 31

  • For earnings during the period October 1 to December 31, payment to you shall be made by April 30

5) HOW MUCH WILL I MAKE?

A: Unfortunately, it is nearly impossible to estimate how many downloads and streams there will be. It is also very difficult to estimate the per-stream revenue because it varies widely by watch time, viewer territory, etc.
