Trolley is the payouts platform for the internet economy. We help music companies pay artists, songwriters, producers, labels and other rights holders around the world.
Our platform brings global payouts, recipient onboarding, tax compliance, identity verification and fraud prevention together in one place. Music companies use Trolley to automate recurring royalty payouts, collect and validate tax and banking information, connect payout workflows with their existing royalty and finance systems, and give artists a better experience getting paid.
Trolley is used across the music ecosystem by companies including SoundCloud, Bandcamp, Downtown Music and UnitedMasters, as well as independent labels, distributors, royalty platforms and artist services businesses around the world.

• Attend music industry conferences, trade shows and customer events to build a strong personal network and stay current on how the industry is changing.
