Nielsen SoundScan is the information system that tracks sales of music products throughout the United States and Canada. Sales data from point-of-sale cash registers is collected weekly from over 14,000 retail, mass merchant and non-traditional (on-line stores, venues, etc.) outlets.
Why Register?
SoundScan is the sales source for the Billboard music charts. While your download sales numbers are automatically reported to SoundScan, unless your album is registered in their system, SoundScan will be unable to track your product. We can do the work of registering your album with their reporting service so that your sales can be tracked and noticed by top music industry leaders.
Once you select this option during the album submission process, your album will be registered into SoundScan's system within 7 business days.
The Cost For Our SoundScan Registration Service:
The SoundScan Registration Service can be purchased for only $49 during the album submission process.
