No monthly fees. No autopay.
Most services keep charging you, monthly or annually, then make it nearly impossible to cancel. Others pull you in with seemingly low "per-song" fees that quickly add up. And most just quietly disappear within a few years.
SongRegistration® is different: ONE low fee. No "per-song" charges. No recurring billing. No auto-renewal.
Just one registration fee, time-tested reliability, and unmatched customer support.
One fee for small batches:
1 to 4 songs submitted together.
One fee for large catalogs:
Up to 500 songs submitted anytime over 1 year.
What our registrars say:
“Been using SongRegistration since 2010. Wouldn't trust any other service.”
“SongRegistration is my song insurance. Thanks for making the registration process so simple.”
“Great staff, great service, the best customer support!”
“Got my Registration Affidavit instantly. No hassles.”
Quick answers.
1. Do I get paperwork?
Absolutely. Your Registration Affidavit is emailed immediately after you send us your songs. You are also directed to an additional online copy to print or save.
2. Are my songs really copyrighted?
Yes. As long as your material is original, copyright protection attaches by law as soon as it is first put into tangible form. We memorialize those key elements for you. For more info, click here.
3. Are my songs published online?
No. We do not publish your actual songs. The public registry shows key registration data such as composers, titles, dates and registration numbers.
4. Can I register lyrics only?
Yes. Just leave the “music by” box blank on the forms.
5. I am having trouble paying, registering, or uploading.
Check the Help section or contact us.
6. I have one song. How much does that cost?
The $29.95 fee buys one Affidavit, which can hold up to 4 song files submitted together.
7. If I don't renew my annual plan, do my songs stay registered?
Yes. Renewing only affects registering new songs. Songs already registered remain in the archives.
8. Can I register lyrics only?
Yes. Just leave the “music by” box blank on the forms.
