Launch a token for any song on Spotify — SICKO MODE, Dior, Firework, anything — and its creator fees stream to the people who made it. The artist verifies the profile and claims. Tokens launch on Pons on Robinhood Chain.
Example board. Real songs show how Paylist would look; every price and fee figure is made up. None of these artists have claimed, endorsed or been contacted by Paylist.
Pons charges 1% per trade and gives 70% of it to the token's creator. On Paylist the creator is a vault, so that cut lands with whoever wrote the song.
One vault per recording, one route per token. The vault is keyed by the song's ISRC, the same code labels and distributors register, so a remix or re-release gets its own route.

Fans launch. Artists claim. Nobody has to ask permission to start sending a song money.
Any track URL. Paylist reads the title, artist and ISRC and fills in the token.
FanThe token deploys on Robinhood Chain with the Paylist vault set as its creator. Pons charges its usual 0.0005 ETH launch fee.
FanEvery buy and sell sends its creator cut into the song's vault. It waits there, visible on-chain, until someone proves they own it.
Anyone tradingThe artist signs in with Spotify for Artists, proves the profile is theirs, sets a wallet and withdraws everything accrued.
ArtistFees keep accruing in the song's vault. Nobody else can withdraw them — not the launcher, not Paylist. The balance sits on-chain until the verified artist shows up.
The vault pays the Spotify artist profile the track is listed under. Splitting between songwriters, producers and features is on the roadmap. For now it goes to the primary artist, who can forward shares themselves.
The vault doesn't care who holds the keys, only that they control the Spotify for Artists profile. For an artist like Pop Smoke, that's the estate or label team managing the profile, and they claim the same way.
Yes, and both tokens route to the same vault, because it's keyed by the recording's ISRC. More tokens on one song just means more fees for the same artist.
No. Pons keeps its 30% protocol share as usual. The 70% creator share goes to the vault in full.
No. Paylist only reads public track data and uses Spotify for Artists to confirm ownership. It isn't affiliated with Spotify, Robinhood or Pons.
