Understand splits, royalties, and payments
Find the agreement that applies to your placement.
Under the Terms, qualifying Major Placement sample-side economics are split 50% to Wavshare and 50% to the sample creator/collaborator pool unless agreed otherwise in writing. This is the portion allocated to the sample, not automatically half of the entire new recording or song. Check the applicable license and final clearance terms for your project.
For example, if a final agreement allocates 20% of a recording’s master-side economics to the sample and applies the default 50/50 division, Wavshare’s portion is 10% of the whole and the creator pool’s portion is 10%. Publishing is a separate allocation; do not assume it has the same percentage as the master.
The app does not currently provide payment or tax onboarding or self-service payouts. A recorded split or a Cleared status is not a payment confirmation.
For a payment or accounting question, contact support with the sample and clearance reference. Do not put banking details, tax documents, or identity documents in the support form.
