When we invite you to set up an artist or label account, you sign in with the email the invitation was sent to and answer a few short steps. Artists add their Spotify and Apple Music profiles and their legal name. Labels add the label name, their legal name and, if they want, their team. AMM Distro is invite-only, so you need an invitation to set up an account. If you were invited to join someone else’s team or to accept a royalty split, see Accept an invitation instead.

​
Open your invitation

  1. Open the email titled ”… invited you to join AMM Distro”.
  2. Click Set Up Your Account (or Sign In to Sign if your agreements are attached).
  3. Sign in with the email address the invitation was sent to. The sign-in page shows what the invitation is for, for example “Set up your name on AMM Distro”.
If you’re signing with AMM, your agreements may be attached to the invitation email as PDFs. You can read them and share them with your lawyer or manager without signing in. You only need to sign in when you’re ready to sign.

Set up an artist account

The page shows Step 1 of 3 and so on at the top.

​
1. Your artist profile

Your releases go to the Spotify and Apple Music profiles you pick here.
  • Spotify: search for your artist name and pick your profile, or paste your Spotify artist link. If you don’t have a Spotify profile, pick I’m not on Spotify yet. Your profile is created with your first release.
  • Artist name: how the stores will credit you, spelled exactly as you want it. If you picked a Spotify profile, use the spelling on that profile.
  • Apple Music: pick the matching profile, paste your Apple Music artist link, or pick I’m not on Apple Music yet.
Enter your Legal first name and Legal last name. They’re used on your agreements and payments, and for your songwriting credits. They aren’t shown on the stores. Under Songwriter details you can also pick your Performing rights organization and enter your IPI number (9 to 11 digits), if you have them.

​
3. Check your details

Check everything, then click Create account. If you have agreements to sign, the button says Create account and review agreement, and the page lists them under Ready to sign when you finish. You can change your store links in Settings → Artists until your first release is delivered.

​
Set up a label account

  1. Your label: enter the Label name shown on your account.
  2. Your legal name: enter your legal first and last name. It’s used on your agreements and payments.
  3. Invite your team (optional): add your team’s email addresses. You can also add people later from Settings → Team members. Click Skip if you don’t want to add anyone now.
  4. Check your details, then click Create account.

​
After you finish

  • If you have agreements to sign, you go straight to Agreements. Sign them there. A PDF copy of anything you sign is emailed to you.
  • Otherwise you go to your dashboard Home.

Common questions

​
It says “That Spotify profile is called …, not …”.

The profile you picked has a different name from the Artist name you entered. Check that you picked the right profile. If it is yours, tick the box that ends “It’s mine.” and continue.

​
It says “No invitation found”.

You signed in with an email address that wasn’t invited. Click Sign out and sign in with the address the invitation was sent to. If you can’t find the invitation, ask the person who invited you to send it again.

​
It says “No Spotify artist found at that link” or “No Apple Music artist found at that link”.

Check that you pasted an artist profile link, not a link to a song or album.

​
I don’t have a Spotify or Apple Music profile yet.

Pick I’m not on Spotify yet or I’m not on Apple Music yet. The stores create your profile with your first release. Related: Accept an invitation · Sign in to AMM Distro · Sign your release agreement · Link your Spotify and Apple Music artist profiles
