You only ever see what an artist's own plan includes: a press kit, for example, is part of Encore. Nothing you do changes an artist's plan or what their streams pay. Every penny of streams, merch and tickets is paid to the artist; your share is agreed between you and them, as it is now, and subTotem never takes it out for you.
Playlists belong on your label page, never in genre browsing. On subTotem, nobody can pay to be discovered: a label included.
The price
Priced by the artists
you look after.
One account, whichever step you're on, with team logins for the people who work with you. Accounts are on the way: everything here is coming soon.
The founding rate: go yearly before listening opens and you pay half the yearly price, for as long as you keep your subscription without a break.
The price shown is the total you pay. Team logins include yours, so 2 is you and one more. It's a plan of its own: an artist who also runs a label keeps their Artist plan beside it. Each signs in as themselves, with the artists and access you give them — never more than each artist has shared.

Good to know
The small print, in plain English.
Can we take a share of streams through subTotem?
No. subTotem pays every artist directly — 1p a stream, and their merch and tickets less the flat 5%. What you agree with your artists stays between you.
Do our artists keep their rights?
Yes. Uploading to subTotem never changes who owns a recording or a song, and joining a label on here doesn't either.
Do our artists need to be on subTotem?
Yes — each needs an artist account of their own. Core is free for good, so it costs them nothing.
Who can send us demos?
Artists on subTotem. Their demos arrive in your inbox with their page attached, so you can hear the rest of what they do.
Can we promote our releases in genre playlists?
No. Genre browsing is the same for everyone, and nobody can pay to be in it. Your own playlists live on your label page.
What's the founding rate?
Go yearly before listening opens and you pay half the yearly price — £150, £250 or £500 a year — for as long as you keep your subscription without a break.
Label or manager?
The same price. Choose label if you want a public page and the roster tools; a manager account is everything else.
When does it open?
Soon. Join the label waiting list and we'll email you the day label accounts open.
