Every songwriter needs their own MasterStremas Publishing Administration account. They have to agree to the Master Publishing terms and pay the setup fee.

So, if you’re in a band, each member should make a MasterStremas account (even if they’re not the account putting out music). We’ll use these accounts to pay each songwriter who isn’t distributing their music.

**Remember, just putting co-writer shares in doesn’t sign up that co-writer for Master Publishing. If you’re collecting on behalf of your other band members, they do not need to create a separate account.
