SoundCloud Unveils New ‘All-in-One’ Artist Subscription

SoundCloud has unveiled its new ‘All-in-One’ artist subscription package, delivering what it says is the most artist-direct subscription on the market.

What it means:

• While artists who monetize directly on SoundCloud have always kept 100% of their SoundCloud royalties, the new package extends the same benefit to distribution royalties from streaming platforms such as TikTok, Spotify, YouTube Music, Apple Music and 50+ more.

• For the US only, the platform has also introduced a Fan Support Feature, whereby fans can donate to artists via a Support button, with 100% of the proceeds going to the artist.

• Fans who donate are highlighted in a new Fan Support spotlight.

• In addition, artists can showcase their off-platform purchase options and merch directly alongside their music, with all profits going to the artist.

• As previously reported, SoundCloud also offers artists the ability to sell on-demand vinyl versions of tracks internationally.

Package launch:

• The ‘All-in-One’ artist subscription is available now.

• Existing Artist and Artist Pro subscribers automatically gain access to the new features.

• New creators can join here.

What they said:

• Eliah Seton, CEO of SoundCloud: “SoundCloud has always been about putting artists first. With this launch, we’re taking that mission further by giving artists a truly all-in-one subscription, including distribution without detours, community without barriers, and monetization without compromise, including direct support from their fans.”
