Royalties & Payments

  • Our royalties department offers online access to royalty statements through our cloud-based, mobile-optimized management system, Curve.

    Registered portal users can click here to access the secure login page.

    To request access to the portal, please contact us.

  • Over the years, some recording artists, songwriters, and producers affiliated with Watershed Music Group have moved without notifying us of their new address. This means that royalty payments and/or accountings are occasionally returned to us without forwarding information. If you are a royalty participant and believe you are entitled to an accounting or have moved without notifying WMG, please complete the relevant form under “Finance Forms” below.

    Other recording artists, songwriters, and producers affiliated with Watershed Music Group have never turned in a completed tax form. That means no royalty payments are sent, which explains why they appear “missing.” If you are a royalty participant entitled to royalties from your songs or any of our recorded music, please complete the relevant form under “Finance Forms” below.

  • To give someone access to your royalty account in Curve, contact us with their name, email address, and the vendor they need access to.

  • If you can’t access your royalty account, it may be due to a missing finance form. Please contact us with your name, best email address, and vendor name so we can assist you quickly.
