Artist’s Resale Right
With Artist’s Resale Right (ARR), creators get a royalty payment when their work is resold by a gallery or art dealer.
Payback
Payback is a scheme which pays artists annual royalties when their artworks have been published in UK books, magazines or on TV.
Licensing
We help artists and creators earn from their work through licensing it for reproduction – for example in adverts and as merchandise.

Advocacy
The Culture, Media and Sport (CMS) Select Committee has published a report, for which DACS, ALCS, BECS and Directors UK had provided evidence for, calling for better support and compensation for creators, through a statutory scheme to pay them for their copyright, and the establishment of new support mechanisms for freelancers.
