50% OFF SponsoredWhy Vietnam rates are what they are
No streaming platform pays a fixed global rate. Each service pools the subscription and advertising revenue it earns in a market, then splits that pool across all streams played there. Vietnam is a emerging market: huge listening volume at very low local price points; per-stream rates are a fraction of us levels.
For artists, the takeaway isn't to chase high-rate countries. It's to know what your audience is worth. A fanbase in Vietnam pays differently than the same play counts elsewhere, which changes what a realistic revenue goal looks like.
