InterSpace's published distribution agreement carves label partners out of its standard royalty structure, saying that where a separate distribution or revenue-sharing agreement exists between InterSpace and the label, that agreement supersedes the standard terms. The agreement does not say what those separate terms are. Asked what they typically are, the company said exclusive label-partner deals run at roughly 10 to 15 per cent plus marketing services. Afrobeats Wire has not seen a signed partner agreement and could not verify the range against one; no partner contract, invoice or statement was reviewed. Treat it as what the company says it charges, which is the same standing every other rate in this piece has, with the difference that the others are published where a reader can check them and this one is not.","unit":"pct","license":"Afrobeats Wire's compilation and analysis are licensed CC BY 4.0.","confidence":"low","retrieved":"2026-08-21 02:33:20","n":1,"first_party":0,"columns":[{"key":"deal_type","label":"Deal type","type":"text"},{"key":"share_min_pct","label":"Company's stated share, low end, %","type":"number"},{"key":"share_max_pct","label":"Company's stated share, high end, %","type":"number"},{"key":"besides_the_share","label":"Besides the share","type":"text"}],"rows":[{"deal_type":"Exclusive label partner","share_min_pct":10,"share_max_pct":15,"besides_the_share":"Marketing services"}]}
