Question 1

What exactly is a "Lifetime Royalty Split"?

Accepted Answer

A royalty split means you are granted a small, permanent percentage of the revenue generated by a specific song's master recording. Every time that song is streamed, downloaded, or used commercially, your percentage of the earnings (after the platform takes its cut) will be automatically sent to

Question 2

How much money will I actually earn?

Accepted Answer

We cannot guarantee any specific dollar amount. Earnings are based entirely on the song's performance (i.e., the number of streams it receives globally). However, you own a piece of the song's future and will be paid for the song's life span as long as streaming continues.

Question 3

What kind of royalty is this (Master or Publishing)?

Accepted Answer

This is a share of the Master Recording Royalty. These are the royalties paid out by streaming services (like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music) to the master owner (Keepitil Records) for the usage of the sound recording itself.

Question 4

Is there a cost to enter or claim a ticket?

Accepted Answer

No. Registering for the FREE Royalty Access Pass on Eventbrite and completing the 3-step entry process on YouTube is entirely free. The only potential cost is if you choose to sign up for a paid DistroKid account to receive your funds. Distrokid provides split transparency and automation.

Question 5

Can I enter multiple times to increase my chances?

Accepted Answer

No. Only the first 10 unique individuals who complete all 3 steps on the latest track are eligible to win a split on that specific track. Once the 10 spots are claimed for one song, the giveaway moves to the next new release.

Question 6

How do I know which song is the "newest music"?

Accepted Answer

The giveaway is always active for the most recently uploaded music video or song posted to the Keepitil YouTube channel. Please check the channel's "Releases" tab and find the track with the most recent upload date. Otherwise, select a ticket to a track and we will email you the direct music link.

Question 7

How will I be notified if I win a split?

Accepted Answer

If you are one of the first 10 confirmed winners, an official reply will be sent to your winning YouTube comment. This reply will contain instructions on how to securely provide your DistroKid account email to finalize the split.

Question 8

Why do I need a DistroKid account?

Accepted Answer

We use DistroKid's "Splits" feature to legally and automatically distribute royalties. For your share to be collected and paid out to you, you must have a DistroKid account (it can be any tier). This ensures the payments are accurate and direct. We offer exclusive free annual subscriptions monthly.

Question 9

Do I need a paid DistroKid subscription?

Accepted Answer

Yes, DistroKid requires all users receiving payments through the "Splits" feature to have an active subscription (starting at the $22.99/year Musician plan, as of the current date). You can use our discount link to save money on your first year: [https://distrokid.com/vip/seven/9557689]

Question 10

How often will I get paid?

Accepted Answer

Royalties are collected from streaming platforms (like Spotify) and paid out to DistroKid, which then distributes your share directly to your account. This process typically results in your earnings being deposited monthly, but this timing is controlled by the streaming services, not Keepitil.

Question 11

Is this promotion legal?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We are not selling raffle tickets or running a lottery. We are giving away a percentage of a legal, measurable revenue stream (Master Recording Royalties) as a promotional incentive for direct fan support, which is common practice for independent artists and labels.
