Similarly for broadcasters and webcasters: from now the easiest way for us to find you on our system will be via the new GVL-ID, and no longer via the previous customer number.

The GVL-ID acts as the unique identifier for all our members. Heirs or power of attorneys will also receive their own GVL-ID. If you are represented with us in multiple categories (e.g. artist and producers, artist and heir) you will have several GVL-IDs.

Should payouts be due after the deduction of previous payments based on this distribution result, you will find the relevant payout information outlined there too.
