How this company uses Trustpilot
See how their reviews and ratings are sourced, scored, and moderated.
As an independent artist managing my own catalog across multiple platforms and territories, Songtrust has been absolutely essential for ensuring I collect every royalty I'm owed. The peace of mind alone is worth the time.
What impressed me most was how straightforward the onboarding process was. Within days of registering my songs, Songtrust was working to collect publishing royalties from over 60 collection societies worldwide - something that would be virtually impossible for me to manage on my own.
With listeners in the US, Brazil, UK, Turkey, and dozens of other countries, having global collection coverage is crucial.
The platform itself is user-friendly and transparent. I can easily track my royalty collections, see exactly where my money is coming from, and get detailed reporting on my catalog's performance.
The quarterly payments are reliable, and their customer support team has been responsive whenever I've had questions.
For independent artists who are serious about their careers, publishing administration isn't optional - it's essential. You're likely leaving significant money uncollected if you're not registered with a service like Songtrust.
Between streaming, YouTube, radio play, and sync opportunities, those royalties add up faster than you'd think.
5/5 Stars - A Must-Have for Any Serious Independent Artist
If you're handling your own music career, Songtrust is one of those services that pays for itself many times over. Highly recommended.

The way the song was registered and the user interface were great. It was nice to be able to monitor it right after registration, so I could see the status of the registered song right away.

Thank you sincerely for welcoming me into the big Songtrust family.
In an industry where independent artists are often overlooked, Songtrust offers transparency, professionalism, and a genuine sense of security. The platform is clear, the team responds promptly, and the entire rights-management process is simple and well-structured.
I felt respected as an artist, listened to, and supported at every step.
For me, Songtrust is not just a service — it is a partnership that gives you confidence that your work is protected and treated with seriousness.
I wholeheartedly recommend Songtrust to every creator who wants their music to be represented correctly and globally.
Thank you once again, Songtrust.
With respect,
Esteban Luz St

I signed up with Songtrust to manage my publishing administration and collect my global royalties, and the experience has been very smooth so far. The platform is clear, the registration process was straightforward, and the guidance provided helped me understand each step.

My experience with Songtrust onboarding has been extremely frustrating. The Plaid ID verification system simply does not work. I have tried 20–30 times, in perfect lighting, with a valid government ID, but it always shows “Unable to verify your identity.”
Even after sending all documents manually, nothing has been resolved. As an IPRS registered Publisher with a valid IPI, this delay is affecting my work badly.
Songtrust needs to fix this broken verification process immediately. Many users are facing the same issue, and it’s disappointing that such a big company cannot provide a simple manual verification option.
I think this is the best decision I have ever made when I initially was looking for the right company to take care of the administration of my publishing . This is a lifetime experience and the portal is so user friendly.

Register for song was so easy and simple. And the dashboard very intuitive I like it. I hope they will collected all of my royalties around the world without leave any cent on the table.

Was easy to navigate and got the process completed.

I feel better knowing that SongTrust, with its expertise and resources, is in my corner. The only constructive criticism I would add at this early stage in my songwriter journey is for SongTrust to do a better job clarifying that: while ST handles the Publishing registration side with my PRO (in this case BMI) to capture my 100% of publishing royalties (- 15% to ST as Administrator) - I still need to register my song with my PRO as an Artist in order to collect the other 100%! In fact, I still need to register the full “200%” with my PRO (BMI) who then ST works with as Administrator. A Crazy/Confusing process!
Songtrust makes it simple to register your work so creatives can focus on creating!
