For artists
Get paid for the people who actually listen.
On RAAYDR your income comes from your fans' subscriptions, not a global pool. 55% of every subscription, after tax, publishing royalties and card fees, goes to artists, split by where each fan's attention actually goes. Automatic splits for everyone who made the record.

Post more. Dance more. Do TikTok. Do Instagram. Everything except make music. Because making music stopped paying.
RAAYDR pays for the music. Not the marketing.
No label required.
Upload directly. No gatekeeper to pass, no distributor taking a cut of a cut. Your masters, your publishing, all of it stays yours.
Splits built in.
Producers, songwriters and features are credited and paid automatically, the moment your work plays. Set the split when you upload the track. Every month, your share and theirs move at the same time, automatically. No invoices, no chasing.
Traceable, monthly.
See exactly which fans' money reached you. Every month. Line by line.
Do the maths
What your fans are paying
Day Ones lock a lower price forever, so a Day One fan sends less your way than a standard subscriber does. Standard is the steady state, which is why it’s the default here.
Attention share is your slice of each fan’s total listening. 40% means you are close to half of everything that person plays. It happens. It is not the average. Attention share is an assumption, not an observed rate. RAAYDR is pre-launch, so there is no measured average yet.
Spotifythe same people, paid per play
£48/month
Assumes 16 plays of your music per fan a month, 4 times the 4 plays a real Spotify monthly listener averages in our own Spotify for Artists data. The 4 is measured. The step up to a committed fan is our assumption.

Side income
The same 1,000 people, either way. To earn the RAAYDR figure through Spotify instead you would need roughly 237,000 plays a month.
Your share is 55% of every subscription, after tax, publishing royalties and card fees, divided by how much of each fan’s listening you hold. The Spotify column is that same fan’s plays of your music at roughly £0.003 a stream, a rate taken from a real distributor dashboard. Both sides of that are grounded: the rate is observed, and so is the anchor under the play count. Spotify for Artists data puts an average monthly listener at about 4 plays a month, and the 16 plays this column prices is 4 times that, on the assumption that a fan who genuinely rates you plays you more than a passing listener does. That step is the one modelled input on this side. Attention share deliberately does not touch the Spotify figure: the play count already is your share of that fan, counted rather than expressed as a percentage. Figures are projections based on your inputs, not a guarantee.
Some things we'll put in writing.
Your music stays yours.
Your masters, your rights, your catalogue. Uploading gives us permission to stream it to subscribers. That's the whole deal.
Never used to train AI.
We will never train AI on your music, and we will never license it to anyone who would.
Uploading is free.
It costs nothing to put your music on RAAYDR, and it never will.
The artist money always moves.
Every fan's subscription follows their own listening, and the artist money in it reaches the artists they play. Monthly. We don't sit on it and we don't absorb what goes unplayed.
Your most loyal fans deserve more than a stream count.
Early access to new tracks. Discounts on merch and tickets. A personal thank you when someone's actually shown up for you. You set what unlocks and at what point. It's not a loyalty scheme bolted on after the fact. It's built into how RAAYDR works.
Streams are not what pays. Your share comes from a fan's attention, and a fan is worth the same whether they play you once or a thousand times. There is no number of plays that turns a fake account into a profit. That is not a policy we enforce. It is arithmetic.

Frequently asked questions
55% of every subscription, after tax, publishing royalties and card fees. Your share of that comes from how much of each fan's listening time you hold, so a fan who plays you constantly is worth more to you than one who plays you occasionally. Use the calculator to see what your own audience would look like.
On Spotify your earnings come from a global pool, so your fans' money gets averaged out across everyone. On RAAYDR your fans' money goes to you, in proportion to how much of their listening you hold. A fan who gives you a fifth of their listening is worth 71p a month. Earning that from Spotify instead takes around 237 plays. A fan who plays nothing but you is worth £3.56, or around 1,187 plays. That is 55% of a £9.99 subscription after VAT, publishing royalties and card fees. Actual earnings depend on your share of each fan's listening.
It's the proportion of a fan's total listening time each month that goes to you specifically, out of everyone they listen to. It rewards artists who hold a fan's actual attention, not just artists who get added to a playlist and skipped.
Monthly, once your balance passes £50, straight to your bank through Stripe. There's no manual invoicing, it's automatic once you cross the threshold.
