Synchronization (sync) rights allow music to be paired with visual media. A sync license covers the composition; a master use license covers the recording. Sync fees are negotiated on a per-use basis and can range from $250 indie placements to seven-figure global ad campaigns.
There is NO statutory sync rate — every sync is negotiated.
Music supervisors are the gatekeepers in film, TV, and ads.
Indie sync platforms (Songtradr, Musicbed, Marmoset) handle one-stop pre-cleared catalogs.
Every icon below links directly to the official site of that agency, publisher, collective, or authority. Hand-curated for synchronization rights & royalties.
