TuneCore makes sure your music is available to your fans as quickly as possible. Our team needs about 1-2 days to approve your release. Once your release is approved, you can expect to see it on TIDAL after about one to three business days.

How often does TIDAL payout?

TuneCore will make your money available as quickly as possible, but we still have to wait for TIDAL. Generally, there is a two-month delay when posting revenue from stores and streaming services. So, if you put your music on TIDAL in May, your revenue will be available starting in July.

We do not. While we keep 20% of revenue generated from social media platforms, TIDAL is a streaming service. You put in 100% of the work and we make sure you get paid for what you earn.
