HOW PAYMENTS WORK
USER-CENTRIC PAYMENTS
Unlike Spotify, which pools all subscription money together and divides it by total streams (meaning your money subsidizes artists you never listen to), OwnSound uses user-centric allocation. Every dollar you pay goes to the artists you actually stream.
THE OLD WAY (SPOTIFY)
Your $9.99 goes into one giant pool. It gets split across every artist on the platform based on total streams. The biggest artists take the biggest share — even from fans who never listen to them.
THE OWNSOUND WAY
Your $9.99 goes to your artists. 90% ($8.99) is split proportionally among the artists you personally streamed that month. 10% keeps the platform running. That's it.
MONTHLY PAYOUTS
At the end of each month, earnings are calculated and sent directly to artists' bank accounts via Stripe. No minimum thresholds, no hidden fees, no waiting 90 days. You earned it, you get it.
