Get Paid Upfront with LimeTunes Fund Advances
We know creating music takes time, energy—and often, money. That’s why we’re now offering Funds Advances to eligible artists, bands, and labels who distribute with LimeTunes™.
​
This means you can get a lump-sum payment today, based on your streaming history, while still keeping control of your music.
​
We’ve partnered with SNAFU Records, a leading Swedish music tech company, to make these advances possible. Together, we're using smart technology and real data to fund the future of independent music.
How does it work?
1. Send us your royalty history.
(Streaming reports from the last 18–36 months)
2. We run your data through our algorithm.
(Projections help us determine a fair offer)
3. We make you an advance offer.
(And you can negotiate or ask questions)
4. You sign, we pay.
(Fast-tracked if you already distribute with LimeTunes™)
Fair Terms, Flexible Options
-
