TuneCore offers two options for music distribution: an Unlimited Plan or pay-per-release. Both options automatically renew annually.
The subscription fee covers ongoing maintenance of your music across stores. With stores constantly changing their requirements, we'll make sure your music meets their specifications. Plus, you'll receive sales reports to know where every penny comes from!

Distribution Credits (Pay-per-release only)
If you're waiting to finish your next album or want to save on distribution costs, consider purchasing distribution credits. Buying multiple credits at once can save you money, and they never expire, so you can use them whenever you're ready to release new music!

10 Credits | $202.31 | $351.91 | $220.92 |

Distribution credits can only be used on new releases, and you cannot use distribution credits to pay renewal fees. If you upgrade to an Unlimited Plan at any time, your distribution credits will be forfeited.
