Digital Distribution
Music distribution is an essential step in getting your music heard and discovered by a wider audience and the most effective way of generating revenue for your work.
Releasing your music and music videos through Ray-On means hassle-free worldwide digital distribution across 27 stores and platforms in 240 territories, including Spotify, AppleMusic, Google Play, Amazon music and Youtube. We provide added value and extra visibility for our artists with our free initial marketing send out to digital services.
Once your music is out, you will get access to fully transparent royalty reports as well as analytics to review daily listening trends. Learn more about the origin of your plays and who’s listening to your music through our partner’s, Believe Digital, user-friendly platform.
There is not initial or set-up fee for our distribution service, we work on a percentage basis, so if you receive no income, we don’t get paid!
