GHAMRO recently started paying out cash to music creators by releasing a total of GH₵856,700.00 for the end of the year. This money comes from several places, like live shows, digital platforms, and ads. The group mentioned that the largest chunk of the funds, over GH₵470,000.00, actually came from public performances in various spaces. To keep things modern, the organization teamed up with the World Intellectual Property Organization to use a new system called WIPO-Connect. This setup helps track exactly where songs get played so the right people get paid fairly.

The group explained that they use specific data for digital and live event money to reward actual usage of tracks. However, a major problem remains because over 90 percent of broadcasting networks in the country refuse to pay their fees or report what they play. Leaders at the organization stated that artists must register their work properly, or the system cannot find their money. Future plans include giving every person a personal statement so they can see exactly how their earnings were calculated. By following these international rules, the agency hopes to fix the long history of distrust among local musicians.
