How It Works

A simple, artist-friendly process designed for maximum flexibility

1

Apply for Loan

Submit your catalog details and revenue history. We evaluate the quality and durability of your music.

2

Receive Capital

Get a lump-sum payment upfront. Use it for any purpose—no restrictions on how you deploy your funds.

3

Keep Your Royalties

Continue receiving 100% of your royalty income. Nothing changes with your distribution or payments.

4

Repay at Maturity

Repay the loan at the end of your term (1, 3, or 5 years) or earlier if you choose. No monthly payments required.

Secured Debt Financing

Loans are secured by your catalog and related rights. You retain ownership during the loan term.

If the loan is not repaid at maturity and no extension is agreed, the lender may enforce its security interest. Artists should carefully evaluate their repayment strategy before entering into any secured financing arrangement.

Who This Is For

Creative Funding Agency works with:

Established Rights Holders

With proven asset portfolios generating consistent royalty income ($10M+ valuations)

Independent Labels & Rights Holders

Media companies and distributors seeking liquidity without immediate sale

Established Artists

With consistent royalty income who want capital without forced sale

Creators Focused on Long-Term Ownership

Those who prefer straightforward secured financing over complex deal structures

Important: This program is not designed for early-stage or speculative catalogs. We work with established, revenue-generating assets in the $10M-$50M range.

What This Is NOT

Let's be crystal clear about what we don't do:

Not a Catalog Sale

You're not selling any ownership stake or rights to your music

Not a Label Deal

We don't take creative control or future release rights

Not a Royalty Advance

Your royalties don't go toward repayment—they stay with you

Not a Monthly Repayment Loan

No monthly payments or amortization schedule to manage

Not an Investment Product

This is a loan, not a speculative investment or partnership

The Simple Truth

This is a straightforward loan backed by asset quality, not a complex financial instrument that strips away your rights or income.
