SGAE

Spain combines its PRO + mechanical society in SGAE, a leading reciprocal partner to Latin American CMOs. Royalties from Spanish-language songs played in Spain or Latin America frequently arrive there first.

What SGAE collects

Performance royalties are collected by a performing rights organization whenever a composition plays publicly, including on radio, television, a stream, or at a live venue.

In Spain, SGAE collects public performance, mechanicals — Spain + Spanish-speaking territories. SGAE was established in 1899 and reports approximately 130,000 members.

Joining SGAE

Joining cost: €15 one-time. Royalties are distributed quarterly. You need an IPI number — the global identifier connecting a writer with their works, without which registrations cannot be matched to payments.

Register directly at SGAE.

Where Davincii fits

Davincii doesn't file with SGAE directly. Your songs reach it through the reciprocal agreements of the societies we file with, and its payments come back to us the same way.
