Swedish PRO + mechanical society. Free membership, fast digital payouts (monthly is rare globally). Owns the ICE Services platform jointly with PRS and GEMA — handles a large share of European digital licensing.
What STIM collects
A performing rights organization collects performance royalties — money generated when a composition is played publicly, whether that's radio, television, a live venue, or a stream.
STIM operates in Sweden and collects public performance, mechanicals — Sweden. It was founded in 1923 and reports roughly 100,000 members.
Joining STIM
Joining cost: Free. Royalties are distributed quarterly + monthly digital. An IPI number is required — that's the global identifier that ties a writer to their works, and without one your registrations can't be matched to payments.
