Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between SACD and SCAM?
These are two separate collecting societies with different rates and rules depending on your content type and platform. Choosing the wrong one can cost you up to five times your potential royalties. Claimvu analyses your profile, selects the most advantageous society and strategically splits your catalogue between the two to maximise what you receive.
Can I be registered with both societies at the same time?
No — declaring the same video to both organisations simultaneously is prohibited and penalised. However, different videos in your catalogue can be strategically split between SACD and SCAM. This is exactly what Claimvu does for you, applying the optimal rules to each individual video.
Are there commissions or deductions on my royalties?
Collecting societies charge management fees — approximately 11% at SACD and 13% at SCAM. Social contributions also apply depending on your situation. Claimvu operates on a commission-only basis: we charge a percentage of the rights recognised to you under our mandate. If you don’t earn, we don’t charge.
Can I claim rights on videos published before I joined?
Only for very recent content. Collecting societies generally allow a 90-day window from the publication date to declare a video. Furthermore, rights only begin to accrue from the moment the content is officially declared and once it reaches the required 39,000 view threshold. Claimvu reviews your recent publication history to ensure that all eligible content is declared within these strict deadlines.
