After scouring the industry for a home for my new releases, Identity came forward with facts, figures and a team that were keen to help which has given me much confidence that I have made the correct decision to work alongside them. I had an issue late at night and Liane responded at 3am to put my worries to rest! What a legend.

Identity Music are a wonderful partner in the distribution, promotion, and royalty collection space. As an artist and label owner, I've worked with a large number of distributors over the past 10+ years and none come close to the positive, collaborative and artist-friendly experience I've had with Identity. Highly recommended!

Our label has been with Identity Music for a number of years and can honestly say that they are by far the best distributor we've worked with, and we have experience with many! Their platform is straightforward and easy to use, and (crucially) their customer service is second-to-none. I have no hesitation in recommending their services if you are an indie label looking for a trustworthy distribution - and marketing - partner, or an independent artist looking to take the next step beyond DIY distributors.

What truly sets Identity Music apart is their personalized support - they understand the unique challenges indie labels face and provide guidance that feels like having an experienced team member on staff. Identity Music truly feels like a partner, and not a service provider. We see them more as an extension of our Globetrotting Music family, one that truly cares and has our success and best interests at heart. We couldn’t be happier with the choice we made to go with Identity Music as our distributor, and we are excited about what the future holds for both of us.

How much does it cost to upload music to TikTok?
Uploading music to TikTok with Identity Music comes with no upfront fees or unexpected costs.
As a full-service boutique music distributor, we work with independent artists & record labels on a royalty share basis, where you always keep the lion’s share of your royalties.
When you apply to work with us, we’ll consider your goals and our expertise and offer you a royalty share to reflect your needs as an artist or label.
Distributing, promoting and protecting your music with us includes no upfront fees, no additional costs for extra features, and no long-term contracts locking you into unfavourable deals.
How long does it take for my music to go live on TikTok?
Releasing music on TikTok through our intuitive distribution dashboard is simple.
Once you’ve hit ‘Distribute’, your music is sent over to our distribution queue, where it’s thoroughly checked and reviewed by our team to make sure there are no errors, issues or licensing concerns.
We review every release within 3 working days (usually much sooner!), then, if you’ve chosen ASAP distribution, we’ll send your music straight to TikTok.
Music platforms can take 1-2 days to fully ingest after we’ve distributed your release, then it will be live for your fans to enjoy!
Where else can I upload my music to with Identity Music?
Through close partnerships with music platforms across the world, we offer distribution to over 80 global platforms from your Identity Music dashboard.
Alongside releasing music on TikTok, you can also upload your music to platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Tidal, Deezer and many more.
We’re constantly working on new partnerships and adding to our distribution platforms, so keep an eye on the full list here for any updates.
When do I get paid by TikTok?
As an Identity Music artist or record label, your TikTok revenue (along with revenue from other streaming platforms you distributed your music to) will be paid out to you monthly, a maximum of 45 days after the end of the month your royalties were earned in, after the $50USD payout threshold has been reached.
Does distributing to other platforms cost extra?
No! Regardless of how many of our partnered music platforms you choose to distribute your music to, there are no extra charges or additional costs.
Our royalty share basis means that there are no upfront costs to distributing your music and you always keep the lion’s share of your earnings, no matter how many platforms your music is released on.
I’m struggling with my release - how can I get support?
Client support is one of the things we’re best at. Our Client Management team can be contacted via email, social media, live chat or telephone. Our support team are real humans with a real desire to help you resolve any issues - with no chatbots or automated responses in sight.
During our working hours (10am-6pm UK, Monday to Friday), our live chat response time is under 2 minutes, making us one of the most responsive distributors you could choose to work with.
How do I see my TikTok trends?
Our music distribution dashboard gives artists and record labels insight into TikTok performance. From streaming trends to revenue reports, you can dive deep into data to inform your music growth.
Why is Identity Music an invite-only music distributor?
We’re not a DIY, hands-off, self-service distributor.
At Identity Music, we go further than other distributors to support your music career, through promotional support, digital rights management, publishing administration - and more.
We invest time and resources into every one of our independent artists and record labels, so we want to make sure that we’re the right fit for your needs.
By taking the time to vet each and every artist and label we work with, we’re able to make sure we’re able to give every client a level of attention that you won’t get from other music distributors.
