Purchase the optional module Matrix Pro to gain a maximum of flexibility, to work with different distributors in each market and to distribute directly to stores with your own contracts. You need to enter your metadata just once to deliver them to all your distribution partners and stores.

 

There are two options:

• Store integration: distribute directly to stores, based on direct agreements. The store pays royalties directly to your label.
  
  
• Distributor integration: Work with local distribution partners. You can connect as many distributors as you want. The distributors pay royalties directly to your label.
