At iKonic Global, we understand that your back catalogue isn’t just a collection of old releases – it’s a powerful revenue-generating asset. That’s why we’re excited to announce a new funding opportunity specifically designed to help artists unlock the value of their existing catalogues while maintaining 100% creative control and ownership.
Get Funded Based on What You’ve Already Built
If you’re an independent artist with a proven track record on DSPs like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and Amazon, you may be sitting on untapped capital. We’re now offering upfront advances based on your back catalogue’s streaming performance, giving you the financial freedom to:
- Launch your next project
- Invest in marketing
- Go on tour
- Or simply take control of your career
And the best part? You don’t have to release new music to qualify.
Who Qualifies?
To be eligible, artists typically need:
- 20,000+ monthly listeners on Spotify
- $250–$500/month in royalties for the past 6 months
- Music available on major streaming platforms
- Royalty statements from their current distributor(s)
- Viewer-only access to Spotify for Artists
If you meet those benchmarks, our team will evaluate your streaming and earnings data to present a custom funding offer – no interest, no credit checks, and no pressure to give up control.
What’s Covered Under a Back Catalogue Deal?
We fund your existing music, including:
- Previously released singles, EPs, or albums
- Music distributed under multiple distributors (we work with split catalogs too)
- Publishing rights (if applicable and verifiable via PRO statements)
Got unreleased music coming soon? Great – we offer top-up funding when you’re ready to drop.
Transparent Repayment & Artist-Friendly Terms
We only share in streaming and SoundExchange revenues. No interest. No hidden fees. After recoupment, you keep 100% of your earnings. We built iKonic Global with transparency and fairness at the core, offering better terms than traditional label deals.
Fast Funding, Real Support
Once your deal is approved and the contract is signed, we move fast:
- Initial payment within 2 weeks
- Additional payment upon the release of new music (if included)
- Flow-through royalties paid every 14 business days after we receive them
Data-Driven, Artist-First
Using industry data and predictive earnings models, we take the guesswork out of funding. You focus on your craft – we’ll handle the financial tools to grow your career.
