First: congrats on lining up a premiere for your upcoming release!
At Proton, we do NOT trigger takedowns on SoundCloud or YouTube when someone else uploads your track. This means any channel is safely able to upload your premiere without risking any copyright strike or takedown.
What about whitelisting? The channel says I need to do that.
SOUNDCLOUD - Proton needs to add the channel to our Allow List in order for a third party to post a Premiere on their channel. Reach out to support@protonradio.com for SoundCloud Premiers and we can make sure that the channel is added to the Allow List.
YOUTUBE - No whitelisting is required on YouTube, because uploads there are automatically monetized for the label and artists. Proton does not offer whitelisting for entire channels, but if you want, you can ask Proton to disable monetization on the YouTube premiere. When you do this, the channel gets all the money for the premiere, with no money going to you or the artists.
If you want to disable monetization for a YouTube video, send the video URL to support@protonradio.com and ask our team for help.
