For everyone asking me why their DistroKid payment is still processing, here’s what happened to me personally. My first payout was around $1,000, and it went through without any problems. Once I made my first withdrawal of more than $10,000, though, DistroKid asked me to verify that I actually controlled the artist and the social media accounts connected to it. They offered multiple verification options. I used Instagram, so I had to show that I controlled the Instagram account and that it was connected to the artist’s Spotify profile and message distrokid from Instagram. My advice is to create an Instagram for your artist, keep control of the login, and add that Instagram account to your Spotify profile before you ever request a major payout. A lot of you are getting your first bigger payments right now, so I believe some of you may be hitting this exact verification step. It does not automatically mean anything is wrong. You also need to understand that payments can take time. Mine usually arrive fairly quickly, but I’ve had withdrawals take up to 12–14 days. I even contacted DistroKid support about one of them, and they said the payment was fine and still processing. Could they be reviewing streams, auditing the account, or checking your information? Possibly. I don’t know, and neither do most of the people spreading theories online. The only thing I can confirm is what happened to me: once the payouts became larger, DistroKid required me to prove that I controlled the artist’s connected social media accounts. Get that stuff organized now so you’re ready when your payout comes.

What's up Guerrillas! I'm new to this community. This is my very first post. I've been making AI Music now for almost 2 years running and music in general for 30+ years. Let me know what you think on my newest creation. This is my AI Persona "BANG" named after my Surname. He's an AI Christian Rap Star. I am open to answering any questions and helping where I can.

Alright y’all, go check your DistroKid accounts. Looks like payments are hitting, so make sure you log in and see what came through. Also, if you’re starting to make money with AI music, you need to start treating this like a real business. That means separating your personal money from your music/business money.
