Transfer Your Catalog to a New Distributor

Switch distributors and keep your ISRC and UPC codes. Import releases from Spotify with track lists and credits, then add audio and artwork. Free on every plan.

Questions we get a lot.

Does the transfer pull my audio from Spotify?

No. Only metadata is read. Spotify hands out neither audio nor artwork, so you upload the masters and the cover yourself — that is exactly what the draft is waiting for.

Do I keep my UPC and ISRC codes?

Whenever they are free, yes. A code already used by another Spilix account cannot be reused, so Spilix assigns a new one and the preview shows you which codes were replaced before you transfer.

My release is not on Spotify. Can I still transfer it?

Not through Catalog Transfer — it reads from Spotify. Create the release the normal way, or use the bulk upload spreadsheet on Label Enterprise if there are many of them.

What happens to the old release at the stores?

Nothing, until you take it down with your current distributor. Spilix only creates the new release on your account; the takedown stays with them.

Do transferred artists and labels count against my plan?

Yes. Artists already on your account are reused when the name or Spotify ID matches, and anything genuinely new counts towards your plan limit — the preview tells you before you commit.

I have hundreds of releases. Is there a faster way?

Label Enterprise includes a bulk upload spreadsheet — up to 5,000 rows in one file — with a dry run that reports every problem row before a single draft is created.
