PPL Snapshot
We deliver simple and effective licensing of recorded music when it is broadcast or played in public, to obtain fair payment which we then distribute fairly and efficiently to our performer and record company members.
As a leader in global rights management at the heart of the UK’s music industry, PPL ensures those who invest their time, talent and money to make recorded music are compensated when their music is used in public by businesses and organisations or broadcast on TV or radio.
We are the UK music industry’s collective management organisation (CMO) for performers and record companies, representing both independent and major record companies together with performers, ranging from emerging grassroots artists through to established session musicians and major festival headliners.
In addition to operating UK-wide, our market-leading international collections business helps members to maximise their revenue overseas.
PPL also has a joint venture with PRS for Music, PPL PRS Ltd that issues licences to hundreds of thousands of businesses and organisations from all sectors across the UK playing recorded music and/or music videos in public.
