July 2025 Distribution Update
Over £170 million in royalties being paid out on 15 July.
This means over £430 million in royalties has been paid so far in 2025.
On 15 July, we’re paying out over £170 million. This includes 31% more royalties from on-demand video services in the UK (GEOL) and 9% more from broadcast television than 2024.
The payment also includes significant contributions from public performance, online streaming services (MTOL) and international royalties.
July’s payment is our first quarterly distribution using data from our new copyright system (ICE Cube). Our team have undertaken rigorous checks and assurance work to validate the accuracy of the payment, and we’re pleased to confirm the overall value of the distribution and specific royalties being paid out are as expected.

- Live concert royalties including UK and International MLCS
- Public Reception royalties
- International royalties, including those from affiliate collection societies who don’t provide us with detailed usage data. In these cases, amounts will show in statements under ‘Notice of Payment’, with an indication of the territory the royalties originate from.
