You’re considered to be a Licensor one we have returned a fully executed copy of your Input Agreement for your records. Your Input Agreement will initially be sent to you for signature when you register as a licensor.

PPCA has recently replaced its distribution system.  Under our new arrangements we share a repertoire and rights database with sister society,  PPL UK under its ‘Business Services’ model.

If you or your agent / representative currently register any repertoire with PPL, either directly (through MyPPL) or via the global Repertoire Data Exchange (RDx) system, then you need to ensure that you are registering both your UK and Australian territorial rights through these systems. This means that, instead of sending data twice (to both PPL and PPCA) you can register repertoire for both territories in one step, by ensuring that you are adding the Australian territory to your submissions.

 

If you or your agent / representative do not currently register any repertoire with PPL, then the ‘Register Repertoire’ tool is available through the new MyPPCA platform, where you can manage and register your repertoire directly into the new system.  You will need to make sure you have your MyPPCA login to lodge your track registrations – if you have not yet organised your login, please contact the Distribution Team (distribution.mail@ppca.com.au).  Click here for ‘’how to’’ guides for the online track registration process.

PPCA's distributions are made annually and PPCA cannot retain funds from one year to the next. Distributions are made on the best available usage logs, as outlined in the Distribution Policy.

Repertoire can be submitted with PPCA at any time, however, for the inclusion in the current year's distribution they must be received at PPCA by no later than 31 August (e.g. year ending June 2026 will be distributed by 31 December 2026. Registrations must be lodged by 31 August 2026). We would recommend that you register recordings when released, or throughout the year. We suggest at least quarterly, or, if registering a large number of recordings, monthly.
