What is the payment timeline?

The MLC will issue monthly royalty statements approximately 75 days following the end of each calendar month

For example, payment for the month of January (usage month) would arrive in mid-April (paid month). 

  • February (28 days) + March (31 days) + mid-way through April (16 days) = 75 days.
