During these challenging times for the entertainment industry, royalty accounting still needs to be managed, and Royalty Review Council can help you by providing assistance that bridges you through the downturn. To help manage your costs, we offer three specialized royalty accounting services:
Outsource Royalty Administration & Accounting
Royalty Review Council provides a complete turnkey, cost-effective, professional alternative to a traditional in-house royalty department, eliminating the staffing overhead and technical complexities of managing a part-time or fully-functional in-house royalty department. We offer a viable solution for any company that is required to process music, home video, film, publishing or video game royalty and participation statements. We can process your statements using our systems.
Remote Royalty Management
If you have already licensed royalty accounting software, you probably invested in advanced features designed to handle your reporting requirements. The software, however, is only part of the solution - it takes experienced, knowledgeable staff to set up the catalog, contracts, rates and payees. We can provide the manpower and expertise you need to leverage your investment, remotely accessing your royalty systems to process statements.
Royalty Staffing
Since Royalty Review Council is heavily entrenched in royalty accounting, we recruit and work with seasoned and informed staff. Our Royalty Staffing service allows us to assist you in a unique way: from the inside. Working as part of your team, we can put qualified staff on site to get your royalty accounting needs addressed using your existing systems.

Royalty Processing in the Digital Marketplace

We also assist companies who license catalogs from third parties for physical distribution or digital transmission over the Internet, cable, or wireless networks and are required to render royalty statements, reports, and payments. This includes new digital businesses, including all download, subscription, webcasts, peer-to-peer (P2P), streams, and pay-per-play businesses around the world through channels of distribution or purchase such as kiosks, computers, TV set top boxes, and wireless devices.
Our Royalty Software Infrastructure
We utilize a variety of sophisticated royalty software systems specifically designed to fully automate the processing of royalty calculations and ensure that royalties of all types have been calculated accurately. Our systems are constantly updated to manage the evolving royalty reporting requirements associated with new sales channels, new formats, new royalty provisions, which are tailored to the needs of our clients.
