SESAC And SUISA’s Mint Digital Launches With Warner/Chappell As First Client

Mint Digital Services, the joint venture between SESAC and the Swiss authors’ rights society SUISA formed to handle invoicing and administration of multi-territorial license agreements with online service providers, will assume those duties of Warner/Chappell Music’s online licensing business for iTunes.

The new Mint Digital Services database includes approximately 16 million musical works and 96 million sound recordings, over 25 million of which are pre-linked to musical compositions, providing one of the most comprehensive international databases for the identification of musical works.

The joint venture, which is headquartered in Zurich, will handle the billing and administration of licenses issued on behalf of The Harry Fox Agency, SESAC Performing Rights and SUISA, and also offers its services to publishers.

“By combining the expertise of the most accurate licensing process in Europe and the largest database of composition to recording links, Mint has created a platform that identifies more revenue from digital providers,” said Alexander Wolf, Delegate of the Board of Directors, Mint Digital Services. “This also enables publishers, such as Warner/Chappell Music, to realize more revenue faster and more accurately than ever before, and we’re thrilled to have them as a partner.”
