Royalties HQ is royalty management software for book publishers, operated by the UK-based Consilience Media Limited. Positioned as โbuilt by publishers for publishers,โ it is designed to solve the inefficiency and high error rates independent publishers face when handling multi-channel sales, author splits, currency conversion, advance recoupment, and statement generation in Excel.
The product is built around the full royalty settlement workflow: import CSV/XLSX sales files, match them with distributor payments actually received, automatically reconcile multiple currencies, then run royalty calculations and generate PDF statements with one click. It supports models based on net receipts, retail price, and retail price less discount, as well as tiered royalties, splits across multiple rights holders, and advances or expenses configured by ISBN, title, or title group. Supported sales sources include Amazon KDP, Ingram, Lightning Source, Apple Books, Draft2Digital, Google Play Books, ACX, Findaway/InAudio, and more; other channels can be imported via custom CSV files. For collaboration, team users are not charged per seat. An author portal lets rights holders self-serve access to statements, sales, advances, and contract-related information, while publishers can control what is visible.
Public information indicates pricing starts at $100/month, covering up to 100 ISBNs and including unlimited team users, unlimited royalty runs, all features, and free data migration. Plans can be canceled at any time, with no long-term lock-in. A free trial is available with no credit card required. Support includes detailed documentation, human support with responses within one business day, and migration of existing title, rights holder, and contract data from spreadsheets into the system.
Its main strength is its strong fit for the publishing industry, especially for independent publishers with many ISBNs, authors, and complex contracts. Its exchange-rate handling based on actual payment reconciliation is also closer to real financial outcomes than manually looking up rates. The downside is that it is clearly focused on book publishing rather than being a general-purpose royalty platform. Public security information is limited, mentioning only encryption in transit and best practices, with no disclosed SOC 2, ISO, or similar certifications. There is also no visible information about API or developer support.
Royalties HQ is best suited to small and midsize independent publishers, teams migrating from Excel or legacy systems such as Metacomet, and organizations that need to send transparent royalty reports to authors on a regular basis. The main materials do not disclose access conditions from China. Payments are described only as credit/debit card and third-party payment processing, with no mention of RMB billing, local invoices, or integrations with Chinese accounting software. Chinese teams should first test network connectivity, payment methods, and cross-border data compliance requirements before adopting it.
