No hidden fees. No gotchas.
Your price depends on your venue. Here's exactly what drives it.
Why spreading it out matters
All six Performing Rights Organizations bill annually — at roughly the same time. For a mid-size venue, that's $2,000–$5,000+ due all at once every year, often the same quarter as your liquor license, insurance, and health permit renewals. We spread that into predictable regular payments — weekly or monthly — so you never get blindsided by a four-figure bill.
Four things that set your price
Occupancy capacity
The fire marshal number on your wall. This is the biggest factor.
Music type
Background music is cheapest. DJs cost more. Live bands cost the most.
Live & DJ nights
How often you host live bands, DJs, or karaoke — the higher-tier uses raise your rate.
Cover charge
Charging admission at the door bumps up licensing fees across all Performing Rights Organizations.
What real venues owe the licensing companies*
These are the annual amounts venues owe the six Performing Rights Organizations directly — from their actual 2026 rate schedules. Your exact number depends on your venue.
Small bar / cafe
Under 100 cap, background music only
Mid-size restaurant
100-250 cap, DJ nights + background music
Large venue / live music
250+ cap, live bands, cover charge
*Estimated annual totals owed directly to the six PROs, from their published rate schedules — not our fee. Harmonis handles all six for a flat 10% service fee plus $1.99/mo, paid by bank transfer and spread into one predictable payment (no four-figure annual bills). Card payments are coming soon (a 3.5% card surcharge applies). Use our quote calculator for your exact breakdown.
Every plan includes
Pay-as-you-sell
New · Early accessSlow season shouldn't mean a fixed bill. Securely connect your bank once, and we take a small percentage of each week's sales — automatically — until that month's licensing bill is covered, then we stop until the next month. Busy weeks pay more, quiet weeks pay less. No big due date, no missed payments. A flat 10% admin fee applies — nothing due up front.
A small % of sales
Your rate is set from your actual deposits — typically well under 1% for a healthy venue.
Bank-linked, not a card
Connect securely through Stripe. We only read deposit totals to size the weekly amount.
Paid off every month
Each month’s bill clears within the month, then sweeping pauses — no rolling balance.
Rolling out now. Your rate is calculated from your linked deposits and shown for approval before any sweep — you always see the percentage first.
