Question 1

What is the advantage of using JustJoJo Distro to power your distribution?

Accepted Answer

All distribution workflows are in one platform — saving you time and money. Trust & transparency: The team can confirm which earnings, trend and sharing tools are available for your account. Controlled sharing: Share only what you want with your team, stakeholders and artists.

Question 2

Do I need to use an outside aggregator in conjunction with JustJoJo Distro?

Accepted Answer

You do not need an outside aggregator. JustJoJo Distro enables you to connect to the DSPs for delivery with your own deals, or you can opt in to use JustJoJo Distro's deals with the DSPs for distribution.

Question 3

What information do you need from us for the transfer from our distributor/aggregator?

Accepted Answer

Your catalog needs to be ingested, whether you are using JustJoJo Distro to distribute, do reporting, and/or royalties. This can be done in a few ways: Your current aggregator can set up a feed to JustJoJo Distro. Use JustJoJo Distro's catalog ingestion template. Create a release directly on the platform.

Question 4

What happens to my chart history, rankings, and playlist placement when transferring distribution?

Accepted Answer

When migrating catalogs, the only major DSP that loses some historical data is iTunes/Apple Music. If the UPC-ISRCs remain the same, the merge should be complete and chart history & popularity should be retained, but ratings & reviews will be lost. For other DSPs, as long as UPC-ISRCs are the same (and for Spotify, the track length and version info must also match), all rankings are preserved.

Question 5

Do you handle YouTube copyright claim management?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we deliver to YouTube Content ID. We don't provide a UI for direct claim management — our YouTube staff handles this directly and reaches out to you in the event of an issue with your content.

Question 6

Does JustJoJo Distro provide access to unique codes (Apple track IDs, Spotify URIs)?

Accepted Answer

For all DSPs that provide a method to obtain a URI or weblink, we retrieve those and display them in the Distribution section.

Question 7

Does JustJoJo Distro support pre-orders?

Accepted Answer

Yes.

Question 8

Does JustJoJo Distro support pre-saves?

Accepted Answer

We don't currently offer this feature directly. We are working on a partnership with an outside provider, which would be opt-in with a likely flat fee for unlimited use.

Question 9

What is the turnaround time for new releases?

Accepted Answer

Delivery timing varies by DSP and release setup. Submit releases early and confirm the required lead time with the team.

Question 10

Why does it show 'live' on the UI when it's not live yet on YouTube, Yandex, iMusica, Nuuday and Shazam?

Accepted Answer

Live on the UI for these DSPs simply means they have confirmed ingestion. The content will appear on the platform shortly after.
