Music Distribution to Pandora Explained

Can I get my music on Pandora?

When you join with Ditto, you can upload your track and we’ll submit it to Pandora on your behalf, but we can’t guarantee it'll be accepted. Unlike most other major streaming platforms, Pandora is a curated music service, which means it accepts only a select number of the track submissions it receives.

How long does it take to upload songs to Pandora?

Once you’ve uploaded the track you’d like to pitch to Pandora, we’ll process and submit it to the platform as quickly as possible. Pandora doesn't currently offer a fixed timeline for reviewing submissions. If your track gets accepted by Pandora, we’ll notify you as soon as it goes live.  

If my song is accepted by Pandora, where can I hear it?

If Pandora accepts your music it will become available for streaming on Pandora’s ad-supported radio service, Pandora Plus and Pandora Premium.

How much money will I make from Pandora?

Pandora pays artists using a pay per play model, which varies based on which subscription tier a Pandora listener is streaming your track from. This makes it difficult to estimate how exactly much money you could make from getting your music played on Pandora, but with Ditto, you'll receive 100% of the money you generate.

When will I get paid by Pandora?

If your music gets accepted by Pandora, we’ll pay all of your Pandora royalties directly into your Ditto account as soon as we receive them.

How do I start uploading music to Pandora?

Sign up now to create a free Ditto Music account. Upload the track you’d like to submit, select Pandora on our Release Builder and we’ll do the rest! It’s really that easy. And you’ll keep absolutely everything you earn. You can learn more about Ditto Music distribution in our FAQs.
