How this becomes an agreement: minting or using a PENNY delivery key — on the delivery sheet, the start page, Fast Pass, or the API — constitutes acceptance of these terms by the party delivering. PENNY is bound to them the moment your key exists. Prefer a countersigned copy? Email hello@arcx.cc and we sign the same terms on paper.

  1. Grant. You grant PENNY a non-exclusive right to stream the sound recordings you deliver, in the territories you specify (worldwide by default). No exclusivity. Rights holders keep every right they have. No downloads or sales of masters are licensed under this agreement.
  2. Your warranty. You own or control the rights to everything you deliver — or act with the authority of those who do — and your content-origin (human/AI) declarations are truthful.
  3. Delivery. DDEX ERN 4.3 / 4.3.2 or JSON, per the public delivery sheet at pennyhq.com/delivery. Recipient DPID PA-DPIDA-2026092805-4. Delivery is free — PENNY does not charge you or your labels to deliver, list, or stay listed.
  4. Royalties. Listeners pay $0.01 per stream. PENNY credits 71% of every stream — $0.0071 — to the rights holder, the same rate in every territory, from the first play. There is no pro-rata pool; every stream settles individually on PENNY's public ledger.
  5. Reporting. PENNY delivers a monthly per-recording usage report by the 10th calendar day of the following month. Live figures any time: your earnings page (Fast Pass) or GET /api/v1/b2b-ingest/earnings with your key.
  6. Payment. Monthly, net 30 from report delivery, in USD, once accrued royalties reach the standing $10 minimum (smaller balances carry forward). Rails: PayPal or ACH; others by agreement. PENNY charges no fees on payouts. Set your payout method under Contact & Payouts on Fast Pass.
  7. Content protection. No third-party advertising SDKs, no data brokering, and public audio carries X-Robots-Tag: noai — PENNY forbids unauthorized AI scraping of delivered masters. Masters are never offered for download. Your delivery data is used to operate delivery and payments — nothing else.
  8. Transparency. PENNY carries a permanent content-origin flag on every track (ORGANIC / HYBRID / AI_GEN, from ContainsAI or your declaration). Declared AI content is welcome and badged; the flag is never stripped.
  9. Takedowns. Standard removals within 2 business days of written notice; disputed-rights and infringement removals within 24 hours. Written notice from you or the rights holder is enough. Re-delivery honored any time.
  10. Term. Either party may end this agreement on 30 days' written notice; catalog comes down by the end of the notice period, and final royalties are reported and paid on the normal schedule.
  11. Law. Florida, USA. Notices: hello@arcx.cc.
