Curve Royalty Systems Launches New Payments Feature
Curve Royalty Systems is proud to announce the launch of a powerful new payments feature. The new feature gives labels, publishers and distributors the ability to manage and streamline their entire royalty payment process - from receiving funds and converting currencies to issuing payments, handling tax withholdings, collecting payee details, and more.
As music companies and rights holders continue to grapple with complex financial workflows, Curve’s new solution provides a seamless, all-in-one experience - drastically reducing manual processes and consolidating accounting and payments into one powerful tool. The feature follows on from the launch of Curve Royalty Services in June 2024, a flexible service offering for labels, publishers and distributors looking to outsource all or part of their royalty processes.
Curve’s payment feature launched with early adopters at the start of 2025, including Curve clients Involved (Anjunabeats), Cloudkid, Priam Media, Young Poets, and Run With Us. Curve’s latest release demonstrates its effectiveness and potential to help music businesses of all sizes and at all stages.
“Curve's payments feature is everything you hope for when looking for a streamlined payment process - payouts are fast, the support team is extremely responsive, and our artists and writers have control over their bank details without admin for us. In the short time we've used the system, Curve has delivered features based on our feedback and is continuing to evolve, making us very confident we've made the right choice.” said Kam Harris, Senior Finance Manager of Involved Group. “We've used other systems which had high promises but ended up feeling clunky and difficult. Curve lived up to the potential of getting back hours of time, being intuitive to use and offering real value. If you use Curve, and process lots of payments come royalty statement time, or have self-billing, it's a no-brainer. Highly recommend it.”
Integrated directly into Curve’s accounting platform, the feature enables payments in over 35 currencies to more than 180 countries. The feature automates key tasks, including onboarding, invoice generation, and tax calculations, offering low fees, competitive exchange rates, and built-in compliance tools.
Designed for speed and simplicity, this solution eliminates manual processes, empowering finance teams and creators to manage royalties with speed, security, and scalability. With additional capabilities like automatic bank validations, real-time statement tracking, and local payment processing, music companies can stay agile, improve productivity, and remain competitive in an increasingly global market.
“This is the next obvious evolution of Curve’s offering, providing scalable, innovative solutions and processes that serve the music industry” said Richard Leach, President of Curve Royalty Systems. “This feature is a culmination of our continued efforts and commitment to putting money in the pockets of artists, songwriters, and copyright owners faster and with less friction. By streamlining this final step in the process, we’re opening up even more possibilities for efficiency and innovation.”
