Producer Points Calculator
Convert producer 'points' into a percentage and dollar royalty from record sales/streams income — the standard producer-payment model.
A producer's pay is usually a few 'points' — each point is 1% of the same income base the artist's royalty is calculated on. Crucially, points typically come OUT OF the artist's royalty rate, not in addition, so a 3-point producer on an 18% artist leaves the artist effectively 15%. This makes the real cost of points clear before you agree them.
Rule / Formula
Note: Estimate only — not financial, accounting or legal advice. Royalty rates, statutory rates and platform payouts change and vary by territory and contract. Confirm with your distributor, PRO, publisher or a professional.
