New agreement with the Church of Sweden

After long and constructive discussions, STIM and the Church of Sweden have concluded a new agreement for all music use. Thanks to closer and more accurate music reporting from the church’s parishes, and a simpler and more coherent collecting process, processing stages from payment to payout will be reduced and the quality of payments will be much improved. STIM has been negotiating a new agreement since 2015 and royalty distributions will be made retroactively for the combined period 2015-2017 as soon as the new agreement is concluded. Exactly when the payout will take place, we will confirm as soon as possible. We have continuously received and processed music reports of the music performed in churches, which will speed up the payment process for these past years.
