Australasian Mechanical Copyright Owners Society

Australasian Mechanical Copyright Owners Society (AMCOS) is an organization that represents music composers, songwriters, and publishers in Australia and New Zealand. It manages the collection and distribution of mechanical royalties—payments for the reproduction and digital use of their music. When your music is played on radio, streamed online, or bought as a physical or digital copy, AMCOS ensures creators receive fair compensation by licensing these uses and distributing the royalties accordingly. Essentially, AMCOS supports the rights of music creators and helps them earn income from their work worldwide.
