How we pay royalties
Login to your BMI Online Services account

BMI songwriters, composers and publishers can now register new songs online using our state-of-the-art automated system. Add songs to your catalog with just a click of the mouse — and none of the paperwork.

If we don't have your current mailing address, you won't receive your royalty checks so please confirm that BMI has your most recent contact information. You earned it — make sure you get it.

BMI's "Works Catalog" allows songwriters, composers and publishers to check out their entire song catalog in extensive detail — with a complete listing of titles, co-writers, publishers, registration info and much more.

Check your current royalty income online or review how much you earned last year using BMI's "Royalty Statement" tool. Online statements are exact, digital copies of the paper statements mailed each quarter.

The Card: No bank account? Don't like to carry cash with you on the road? Just sign up for "The Card," a convenient ATM-like service that gives you access to your money wherever you are.

Direct Deposit: Want your royalty money right away? Get it the modern way - BMI offers direct deposit on all writer and publisher accounts.

The BMI/US Bank Loan Program offers the opportunity to borrow money against future royalty income through one of the country's largest financial institutions with more than 2200 banking centers and 5200 ATMs in 24 states.
