For independent artists artists
Upload free, get radio play, get paid
One platform for your catalogue, your radio submissions and — on the Artist plan — your earnings.
Most platforms ask you to choose between being heard and being paid. Music Stars Radio is built around both: share music freely, pitch it for radio, and upgrade when you're ready to start earning.

Frequently asked questions
How do earnings work?
Earnings start on the Artist plan. A share of monthly station revenue is split across monetized plays and spins. We don't promise specific amounts.
Do free artists earn money?
Not currently. Free-plan radio play isn't monetized; earnings begin when you move to the Artist plan.
What does the free plan include?
1 hour of uploads in total, 1 hour of radio submissions each month and a public artist page.
Is radio play guaranteed?
No. Submissions are reviewed and must be approved before they air.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes. Upgrades from free start right away; changes between paid artist plans take effect at renewal.
