Publisher feedback
Jess Chandler
Prototype
Royalties HQ has come to our rescue, and is an extremely impressive, intuitive and user-friendly software, which is affordable, and is designed to work for publishers of any scale, and with any number of complicated and unconventional royalty arrangements.
Dan Brady’s dedication and generosity in helping us through the set-up process was invaluable, and it is such a huge relief to be up and running, and to no longer dread our next royalty run. I can’t recommend it highly enough.”
Designed for, and by, independent book publishers
Royalties HQ is royalties management software built by publishers who know how royalties work
Process royalty runs quickly and accurately
Save time and hassle with royalty runs that complete in just a few hours.
No more wrestling with mapping data, just upload your sales files and let Royalties HQ do the work for you.
Multiple royalty models
Royalties HQ supports royalties based on net receipts, the list price of each sale, or the list price minus the discount. Set this per title format (ISBN).
Easy to use, nothing to install
Royalties HQ is intuitive, web-based software, accessible wherever you have an internet connection. Built by book publishers, it ‘just works’.
All royalties supported
Royalties HQ was designed to work with book royalties, but it can handle royalties from any sales sources and any product type: books, ebooks, audiobooks, intellectual property, digital assets – any sales can be managed by Royalties HQ.
Upload your royalties data from any source via CSV/Excel upload.
Advances
Create advances for single titles, single title formats (e.g. an ebook format of a title), or groups of titles. Earned royalties for relevant ISBNs pay off advances first.
Tiered royalties
Each rights holder can be given multiple percentage ownership tiers based on their royalties earned for an ISBN.
For example, a rights holder may earn a lower percentage for the first tier for ebook sales, then a higher percentage in the second tier. Tier breakpoints can be set by units sold, or the ISBN’s total net receipts.
Spot mistakes before they happen
Royalties HQ helps you to avoid errors.
Say goodbye to wrestling with complex spreadsheets and anxiety about missing data. Say hello to peace of mind.
