This article covers some key information about sales reporting and when new money is paid into your account.

When your music is streamed or downloaded on a digital service this is recorded in their system. This data will then be contained in the sales reports that Record Union receive every month. When these sales reports are processed by us then the royalties due to you will show up on your account balance.
​
Once in your Record Union account, you can payout these royalties any time you want. When a payout is made, the money on your balance will be transferred to a PayPal account specified by you. Once in PayPal you can transfer this money to a bank account or pay it onward to other collaborators who are due a share.
​

Now, there is a delay between the month a sale was made and when that report is sent to us and can be paid out into your account. This delay means that you will get sales from a specific month 3 months later. So, if you made some sales in February these will show up on your account at the end of May. The sales for March would be paid out in June, and so on...

Below you will find a complete summary of when sales for specific reports are paid out.
