Question 1

What is music certification?

Accepted Answer

Music certification is the official recognition of a recording's verified streaming performance. Where a gold or platinum record certifies sales volume, a Roywave certification certifies streaming revenue — real royalties, verified across all major platforms, documented permanently in the Global Music Rights Index.

Question 2

How much is a song worth?

Accepted Answer

The market value of a song depends on verified annual streaming royalties. Acquisition value is calculated at 3.5 to 4 times annual royalties. Market value sits between 8 and 12 times annual royalties. The optimistic ceiling reaches up to 20 times annual royalties. All figures use CRB 2023 royalty rates, masters only.

Question 3

How are music royalties calculated?

Accepted Answer

Streaming royalties are calculated by multiplying stream counts by each platform's per-stream rate. Roywave aggregates verified data across all major platforms and applies CRB 2023 royalty rates to calculate verified annual royalty revenue in USD.

Question 4

What is an ISRC code?

Accepted Answer

An ISRC is the permanent 12-character identifier assigned to a specific sound recording. It is how every platform, collection society, and rights management system identifies your track. Without an ISRC, your streams cannot be tracked and your music cannot be certified.

Question 5

How do artists get certified?

Accepted Answer

Certification requires a released track with an ISRC, verifiable streaming data on at least one major platform, and confirmation that you are the rights holder. Enter your ISRC or artist name, your tier is assigned automatically, then choose your product.
