Welcome
PPL is a music industry organisation collecting and distributing airplay and public performance royalties in the UK on behalf of over 3,500 record companies and 40,000 performers.
We issue licences to UK radio and television stations, other broadcasters and internet radio stations who use sound recordings (records, tapes, CDs) in their transmissions.
We also license clubs, shops, pubs, restaurants, bars and grills and thousands of other music users who play sound recordings in public. The PPL licence enables them to play literally millions of sound recordings.
All licence fees that we collect are distributed to the owner of the sound recording copyright (usually the record company responsible for producing the track) as well as the qualifying performers who performed on the recording.
