How Much of My Earnings Does ORB Entertainment Keep? | Help Center
ORB Entertainment does not take any percentage of your streaming earnings. You keep 100% of your royalties. Here is how our payment model works.
This is one of the most frequently asked questions from artists considering ORB Entertainment for their music distribution. The answer is simple and straightforward.
## ORB Entertainment Keeps 0% of Your Royalties
ORB Entertainment does not take any percentage of what streaming services and stores send us for your earnings. When platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, Audiomack, and Boomplay send us earnings reports, we send 100% of the earnings allocated to you straight to your ORB Wallet.
We feel strongly that you shouldn't have to give a percentage of your earnings for streams and sales to your distributor. You earned the money, not them.
## How We Make Money
Instead of taking a cut of your royalties, ORB Entertainment charges a flat subscription fee:
- **Free Plan** — ₦0/month (1 release per year)
- **Artist Plan** — Starting at ₦5,000/month
- **Label Plan** — Starting at ₦25,000/month
This means whether you earn ₦1,000 or ₦10,000,000 from streams, you keep every single Naira.
## How Do I Get Paid?
Your earnings are collected from all streaming platforms and deposited into your ORB Wallet. The wallet balance is displayed in Nigerian Naira (₦). You can request a withdrawal to your Nigerian bank account at any time.
