Audio track and album cover requirements?
You will need your audio in WAV format (44.1kHz by 16bit) as well as a square artwork (JPG or PNG) which is at least 1400 x 1400 pixels.
When will my sales reports appear?
We share quarterly sales reports of how your music is performing. We receive iTunes sales reports 55 days after the end of a month. For example, sales for January will only be available in March, and other stores can take 3 to 4 months to report.
How do I get paid?
Once your revenue exceeds R1000, you'll be eligible to request a withdrawal. The money will be transferred into your OnLife, and then you can transfer it into your bank account or use your OnLife to make purchases.
