About Payback
Payback is an annual scheme which pays artists for the use of artworks that are published in UK books, magazines and shown on TV.
Every year we collect a share of royalties which we pay to eligible artists who've signed up. Since the beginning of the scheme we have paid out over £60m.
If you have had your work published in books, magazines or on TV, you could be elligible for royalties. All kinds of visual artists benefit from Payback including photographers, fine artists, illustrators, sculptors and cartoonists to name a few.
