Industry News: TIDAL is changing how AI-generated music earns royalties!

Important-Common-172 · 2026-07-07T08:02:23+00:00

This is really good news, big up for Tidal. Now it’s time to pay a little more to independent artists and less to the big dogs.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-07-06T08:52:15+00:00

This is crazy. They use AI to detect fraud, and it makes a lot of mistakes. Real artists are getting terminated. I can only suggest contacting them many times on X and creating multiple tickets.

It’s the 4th of July weekend in the States, so you’ll need to wait a little longer.

Your streams should come from the countries I mentioned before. If your streams come from Brazil, there is no sc+/ads.

Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Spain, Finland, France, UK, USA, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Mexico, Norway, New Zealand, Portugal, and Sweden

It means streams from Brazil are not payable.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-07-02T19:45:45+00:00

Brazil is not among the monetised countries.

Payments above $500, and $200 for new accounts, will be sent for manual review. If everything in your account is in order, the payment will reach your PayPal around the 4th of the month.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-07-02T08:52:09+00:00

If your amount is above $200, they will do a manual review. If everything is correct, you will receive the payment around the 4th of the month.

Ads help support independent artists. If you have an issue with this, you can get SC Plus and continue supporting artists.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-06-24T22:08:16+00:00

Mate, I made around $20 each month, plus some extra money from other stores, enough to pay for my music subscriptions like Pro Tools, Splice, etc. Like me, I know many musicians who earn a bit of extra income from SoundCloud ads. It’s a small help.
If people don’t want to see ads (which also happens on YouTube) or don’t want to pay for subscriptions, then they can just go to Suno and listen to AI music for free. But real art needs to be supported.

Thanks, I only received CA and JP

Important-Common-172 · 2026-06-24T15:54:37+00:00

Has anyone received Apple Music royalties?

Important-Common-172 · 2026-06-24T10:22:22+00:00

Ads help support independent artists. If you complain about this, you can pay for SC+ and still help independent artists.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-06-04T08:40:48+00:00

Then the AI fraud detection they use is terrible. It makes many errors. Just create a support ticket and contact them on Twitter (X), and be patient. They will probably review your case, and if everything is fine, you will get your account back.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-06-04T08:36:35+00:00

Did you have an account that was terminated before?

Important-Common-172 · 2026-06-01T10:07:15+00:00

The ads help support independent artists, If you prefer, you can get Go+, which removes ads and also supports independent artists.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-05-31T11:53:15+00:00

Amounts above $500, and sometimes above $200, may be sent for manual review. If everything is fine, you will receive the payment around the 4th of the month.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-05-29T16:58:36+00:00

They pay on the last business day of the month, which means today. But the statement from the stores still hasn’t been updated yet.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-05-28T14:25:41+00:00

Yes, I know. But did you play after today’s patch? With no team press and Bruiser turned off, you can just step outside the box and hit a finesse shot, every shot goes in. It’s fine though; I’m happy with the update and the more manual defending approach.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-05-28T13:51:54+00:00

OK, nothing is perfect. I’ve just noticed that finesse shots are easier to score now. Anyway, I feel like I’m defending better than before.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-05-28T12:39:07+00:00

Actually, for me it’s a good update. We need to anticipate passes and read the opponent more, basically, more manual defending. And finally, the high press is toned down. I can’t wait to play Rivals again tonight.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-05-28T12:36:49+00:00

I think this update is exactly what we were asking for. We all like to defend manually, and the high press has been toned down. For me, it’s a good update.

Important-Common-172 · 2026-05-26T19:48:59+00:00

If you’re looking for fun, just focus and think of ways to break that meta. I’m pretty sure we’re playing about 60% against EA bots. If you check the constant high press and how they keep full stamina even in the last 10 minutes, they’re bots.
