One of the first steps to getting paid is making sure your works are registered at ASCAP. After all, we can't pay you for the performance of a work if we don't know you are the writer or publisher. Once we identify a work that has been performed, we must determine the appropriate writer and publisher members to be paid. To do that, we rely on information supplied to us by our members through our Title Registration System. In most cases, the publishing company of a work will register the title with ASCAP by supplying information with respect to title, writers, publishers and royalty shares. Writers who publish their own works must register their titles directly.

In order to credit members for performances of their works on television andcable, ASCAP must have a cue sheet on file. Cue sheets list detailed informationon all of the writers and publishers who have music in a show. Cue sheets areusually submitted to ASCAP by the producer of a film or television program.
