How long does it take to get music on Pandora?

We care about making sure that your songs get out to your fan base as quickly as possible. Pandora is a curated service and has their own review process (which can take at least 3 weeks) and curates all music that is delivered to them. As a result, we are not able to provide a time frame for when content will become available in their services.

How often does Pandora pay out?

While TuneCore delivers you your digital sales and streaming revenue as soon as possible, we still have to wait for Pandora. Typically, there is a two-month delay on streaming services and online stores earnings. So, if your music is selected to be featured on Pandora and is streamed in February, you’ll see your first payments in April. Pandora will still be paying a portion of revenue through Sound Exchange.

Anyone can upload their music to stores and streaming platforms using TuneCore, so long as you follow our Style Guide on release information and have your songs in the preferred format. Be aware that Pandora is a curated service, so while you can submit to be considered, TuneCore cannot guarantee releases will be accepted.

There isn't one. TuneCore has turned a once-complicated process into a simple, user-friendly service. We continue to lead the industry in creating an easy way for anyone to upload their music around the world. And don’t forget, we won’t take a penny of the revenue you earn.
