For artists

Get paid for the people who actually listen.

On RAAYDR your income comes from your fans' subscriptions, not a global pool. £3.50 of every fan's month follows their listening, and the share that lands on your music lands with you. 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.

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.

Coming soon: live studio drop-ins. We're building a way for your most loyal fans to sit in on sessions as they happen.

This is a living

117,000 casual monthly listeners needed on Spotify to match this

Illustrative estimate, not a guarantee. Founding tier, paid monthly, before payment processing. £3.50 is the most one founding fan can generate in a month, and only if they listen to nothing but you. The Spotify side assumes roughly £0.003 per stream, a typical blended rate for independent artists; the match figure assumes an average of 4 streams per casual monthly listener.

Frequently asked questions

  • On the founding tier, £3.50 of every £5.99 fan subscription goes into the artist pool each month, split by attention share. On the standard tier, it's £4.20 of every £7.99. A fan who gives you 40 percent of their listening time pays you 40 percent of that pool, every month, for as long as they stay subscribed.

  • Spotify pays roughly £0.003 per stream, so an engaged fan playing your music 80 times a month is worth around 24 pence to you. The same fan on RAAYDR, at a strong attention share, is worth pounds, not pence. Run your own numbers on the calculator to see the difference at your fan count.

  • 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.

  • Payouts run monthly through Stripe Connect once your balance hits £50. There's no manual invoicing, it's automatic once you cross the threshold.

  • RAAYDR+ is our creator subscription with a role specific dashboard for tracking your fans, attention share and earnings in detail. It's £1.99 a month normally, but the first 100 artists get it free forever.

  • No, RAAYDR is built for independent artists directly. There's no gatekeeping layer between you and your fans' subscriptions.

  • Your earnings from that fan stop when their subscription does, the same way any subscription based payment works. Your income is built from your whole fanbase across the platform, not any single fan.
