Five questions, answered for this platform specifically.
JioSaavn receives new releases through approved digital distributors who submit audio files, artwork, and metadata formatted to the platform’s specifications. Once processed, the music becomes available across the JioSaavn apps and web player in supported regions.
JioSaavn expects complete metadata including accurate titles, artist names, local language support, lyric credits, and genre tags. Distributors ensure all metadata complies with regional standards and JioSaavn’s ingestion guidelines.
JioSaavn uses curated playlists, editorial picks, trending charts, and language-specific recommendations to surface new music. Strong listener engagement, such as repeats, shares, or playlist adds, helps boost visibility across the platform.
JioSaavn Artists offers insights into streaming activity, listener demographics, geographic performance, and playlist placements. Artists can use the dashboard to track growth and understand how listeners engage with their music across India and beyond.
JioSaavn pays royalties based on streaming activity, subscription tier, and regional usage patterns. Distributors receive these earnings first and then pass them on to artists after processing JioSaavn’s monthly or quarterly reporting.
