Understanding the Statement Columns
| Column | What It Means |
|---|---|

Why Is There a Lag in My Statements?
Streaming platforms report their data on a 2–3 month delay. For example, streams that happened in January typically appear in your March or April statement. This is industry-standard and applies to every distributor, not just InterSpace.
Timeline example:
- January: Your track is streamed 10,000 times on Spotify
- February–March: Spotify collects and calculates royalties internally
- April: Spotify sends the report to InterSpace
- April–May: InterSpace processes and adds earnings to your balance
Why Do Earnings Vary Month to Month?
Royalty rates are not fixed — they fluctuate based on:
- Streaming rates by country — streams from the US, UK, or Germany pay more than streams from lower-tier markets
- Platform subscription pool — Spotify pays based on your share of total platform streams that month
- Stream count — organic spikes after playlist placements or viral moments increase earnings
- Fraudulent stream deductions — platforms claw back earnings from flagged artificial streams
