How the daily playlist is chosen
Eligible artists are ranked by verified paid song and album unit sales in their genre over the previous rolling 30 days. Refunded, fraudulent, and self-purchased units are excluded. Ties use unique paying buyers, then a rotating draw.
Up to 360–480 different top-selling artists can receive one track slot per genre each day, depending on track lengths and station programming. An artist must have an approved, playable recording and cleared radio rights. If fewer qualify, the station uses fewer artists; a slot is never guaranteed.
Ranks refresh daily at 00:00 Eastern. A track's air time is randomized and never announced in advance. Playback limits for an artist and album are enforced. Selection is based on sales, while pay is based on verified listening.
Sales from other genres do not determine this station's ranking. Featuring an artist on radio does not change their separate download payout terms.
What a radio listener play earns
A listener performance is one transmission of a recording received by one listener. CLACK's proposed top-seller bonus is separate from required sound recording and songwriting royalties.
| Daily genre rank | CLACK bonus per verified listener performance |
|---|---|
| #1 | $0.0020 |
| #2–3 | $0.0015 |
| #4–10 | $0.0010 |
| #11 through final qualifying slot | No extra CLACK bonus at launch; applicable licensed royalties still accrue |
The highest tier replaces lower tiers; tiers do not stack. Example: 1,000 verified listener performances for the genre's #1 artist earn a $2.00 CLACK bonus, plus applicable royalties. A broadcast with 100 listeners counts as 100 performances, not one. Bonus eligibility uses the artist's rank on the broadcast date.
CLACK must license recordings and compositions, log each listener performance, and pay the applicable rights holders through the required channels on their own schedules. The six-month CLACK bonus cycle does not postpone those obligations.
January–June earnings are reviewed in July; July–December earnings are reviewed in January. Artists receive an itemized statement by the 30th of the following month and approved bonus balances are sent by the 45th, subject to verified payout and tax details, disputes, and legal requirements.
CLACK will report station revenue, listener performances, royalty costs, and bonus spending each half year. The next rate review will assess higher bonuses or broader eligibility only against funded revenue and rights costs; any change is published before it applies.
CLACK bonuses are a proposed additional program. They start only after the launch terms, funding, artist agreement, payout provider, and play verification are active. Unpaid balances remain artist liabilities; they are never treated as CLACK profit. Artists can dispute a statement and correct payout details before disbursement.
Before the stations can broadcast
CLACK needs an approved music catalog and ownership metadata, recording and composition licenses, a compliant noninteractive stream, listener-level play logs, royalty reporting, tax and payout onboarding, a funded bonus reserve, and a working settlement ledger. Until then, the station cards are a directory preview and do not play audio or accrue earnings.
