Getting started

How to apply for music distribution

Create your KME Network account, verify your email and complete profile review, KYC and your agreement before activation.

Create your account and verify your email

Open Get started to register in the KME Network dashboard. Enter your full name, email address and password, and optionally your artist, label or company name. Accept the account terms to continue.

Open the verification link sent to your email address. If needed, use Resend verification email on your application page. Existing applicants can sign in to continue their application.

Submit your music profile for review

After email verification, complete your profile and submit it for initial review. Choose Artist, Record label or Producer / distributor to describe your work. Explain any multi-label requirements in your profile.

  • Provide your phone number and YouTube or primary channel link.
  • Enter your approximate catalogue size and current distributor, or state that your music is not yet distributed.
  • Describe your music, content ownership and business.
  • Save your profile, then submit it for review. Follow any correction request shown in your application.

Complete KYC after profile approval

KYC opens after your initial profile is approved. Complete your legal details and upload the identity and address documents requested in your dashboard. Businesses must also provide the applicable business and authorisation documents.

Upload documents through your signed-in application. Keep them out of the public website contact form. Submit KYC for review and follow any requested corrections.

Sign your agreement and wait for activation

After KYC approval, KME prepares your client account and agreement. Follow the instructions in your application to complete signing. Distribution access is activated after the required reviews and agreement are complete.

Registration creates an applicant account. It does not approve a release, purchase a plan or activate distribution immediately. Once active, prepare releases, submit them for review and track your catalogue in the dashboard.

Compare plans before deciding

Compare fees, revenue shares, label limits and included support on the pricing page. Your agreement confirms the commercial terms.

For multiple labels or a distribution business, explain your catalogue and service requirements during profile review.
