Get CCC checks? Go paperless

Copyright Clearance Center logoCopyright Clearance Center (CCC) pays royalties repatriated to the United States by foreign Reproduction Rights Organizations (RROs) for use of certain US published works. Authors of textbooks and scholarly publications who hold copyright to their works also receive royalties for various services offered by CCC.

If you receive royalty payments from Copyright Clearance Center for use of copyrighted work(s) in the US and abroad, you should know that CCC will make future royalty payments electronically.

Go paperless” with CCC and receive fast, secure payments in a way that respects the environment. Registration is easy and there is no additional fee for requesting or accepting electronic royalty payments from CCC. Electronic royalty payments are available within three business days after CCC transfers the funds to your bank — much faster than paper checks.

CCC takes data security and privacy very seriously, too. We’ve received ISO 27001 certification and completed three SOC 2 Type 2 audits. In addition, a third-party accounting firm reviews our internal control structure and data security every year.

To make sure you receive any future royalty payments quickly, securely, and in a way that respects the environment, please visit copyright.com/gopaperless today.
