Quiver is the easy and affordable way to distribute your film around the globe on the iTunes store.
Generally, Quiver will deliver your film to iTunes within 30 days of receiving all of your final assets and metadata. To make sure your film is delivered in time, we ask for all materials to be delivered to us 60 days before your desired iTunes pre-order or live date. If all assets and data are submitted on-time, Quiver will deliver your film 30 days prior to your pre-order or live date.
Quiver’s basic package for delivery of an English language title to 57 territories via iTunes is $1,395. This fee covers the cost of delivery to iTunes and processing all of your payments for 2 years. After 2 years there is a $75 annual renewal fee for Quiver to continue to store all of your assets and process and remit payments. We don’t take any of the revenue you earn from the sale or rental of your film. We charge a single flat rate so you can keep 100% of the revenue you make from iTunes.
70/30 for Digital Downloads
You keep 70% of the retail price of your film for all Electronic Sell Through (EST) sales on iTunes. 30% of the retail price is retained by iTunes. For example, if your film was priced at $9.99 for purchase, you would early $7.00 for each sale on iTunes.
60/40 for VOD Rentals
For VOD rentals on iTunes, you keep 60% of the rental price paid by customers. 40% of the rental price is retained by iTunes. If your film rental was priced at $4.99, you would earn $3.00 for each rental on iTunes.
