The Artist Freedom Program
Samaani rewards creators with industry-beating royalty rates. Whether you distribute independently via DistroKid, TuneCore, or upload directly here, we make tracking, launching, and withdrawing your cash simple. We pay 90% royalty share on direct uploads and stream metrics.
Writers & Music Creators: Earn Your 80% Return Credits
Automated Songwriter & Lyricist Splits direct from DistroKid payouts
In traditional platforms, lyricists and songwriters wait years to receive micro-royalties through complex collections. At Samaani, we support and encourage the 80% Collaborator Split model. By allocating splitting agreements on your distributor dashboard (like DistroKid Splits), the distributor splits the money earned from streams and pays 80% returns directly to the lyrics writers and music composers in automated micro-payments. No labels, no deductions, 100% legal digital publishing records!

Earning & Distribution Master Guide
Understand how domain registration, distributors like DistroKid, and royalty payout operations interact with Samaani Music streaming services.
Q. How do I register my customized website domain through distributors like DistroKid?
Distributors (like DistroKid, TuneCore, or CD Baby) primarily distribute your audio tracks, artwork, and metadata to streaming services (DSPs) like Spotify, Anghami, and Samaani. They do not sell domain names like .com or .net directly.
To setup your domain: Register your domain at a registrar (GoDaddy, Namecheap, Cloudflare). Once registered, you can link it to your Samaani Artist Page by setting up a simple CNAME or A Record in your DNS settings. This maps www.myband.com directly onto your custom-curated Samaani catalog.
Q. How can lyricists and song creators guarantee their 80% split payouts from DistroKid streams?
Distributors like DistroKid feature a highly convenient, built-in tool called **"Splits"**. When the song is uploaded to DistroKid, the uploader inputs the collaborator's emails (e.g. lyrics writer, music composer, producer) and sets their exact percentage splits. For example, the Lyricist gets 40% and the Composer gets 40%—totaling an **80% songwriter split**.
Once Samaani reports stream payouts to DistroKid, the distributor automatically splits the earnings and deposits them directly into each collaborator's independent account. This ensures creators get paid their credits on time and securely without relying on label negotiations.
Q. How does the money flow from distributors for streams earned on Samaani?
Samaani generates revenue using a highly efficient hybrid model: non-paying listeners see unobtrusive display and audio advertisements (the Top Ads banner on our dashboard), while registered free members help scale our platform size. 90% of the calculated royalty pool is allocated directly to the artists.
Every quarter, Samaani sends detailed streaming logs and matching funds to DistroKid, CD Baby, and other licensed distributors. These partners process and load the funds directly into your distributor balance dashboard, where you can withdraw them straight to your bank account or PayPal.
Q. What makes Samaani better than Anghami and Spotify for artists and users?
For Users: Most services lock key features (unlimited skips, mobile playback, offline downloads) behind an expensive monthly subscription. Samaani allows users to listen to music completely free, without credit cards. The only step is an easy free sign-up to join our member counter, which adds to our total community clout.
For Artists: Spotify and Anghami pay micro-royalties (often ranging from $0.0030 to $0.0035 per stream). Samaani maintains a high rate of $0.0060 per stream (almost double), driven by modern ad networks, direct regional sponsors, and lower overhead costs. We do not charge fees to distribute your audio onto our search index.
