EVEN reports on direct feeds to the chart bodies. That means DDEX-based reporting to Luminate for the US, and daily transaction files to the Official Charts Company for the UK.
No self-registration
EVEN holds the data and the reporting relationship, and handles the process end to end. Your team never registers the release with a chart body, submits sales, or manages a reporting account.
Metadata has to be right
Reporting depends on a valid UPC on the album and an ISRC on every track. EVEN does not issue these codes, so they come from your distributor or your own ISRC agency. Incorrect or missing codes are the most common reason sales fail to report, so your EVEN team checks them during campaign setup rather than at street date.
What can be reported
Only the initial album checkout can be reported toward the album. Add-on items and access content do not count toward it, and they do not affect eligibility either. Pre-orders are reported at redemption, which is the fan's first play or download on or after street date.
Territories
STUDIO supports chart-compliant reporting under applicable US, UK and Australian rules. In the US, sales are reported to Luminate for Billboard. In the UK, sales are reported to the Official Charts Company. Australian campaigns are set up under applicable Australian rules, and your EVEN team confirms the treatment for a given campaign.
If a release comes down mid-period
Sales already submitted for a reporting period are not withdrawn. Pulling a release stops any future sales, and everything already reported stays in that reporting period.
