Why CallerTunes?

Your phone can do more than ring.

You are already getting the calls. Why not make them work for you? CallerTunes turns the waiting moment before a call connects into a chance to hear, remember and discover your content.

Your brandMake every call part of your identity.
Your discoveryReach potential new listeners in everyday moments.
Your opportunityEarn a share of applicable subscription revenue.
Hear → Discover → Personalise

A simple journey. A bigger opportunity.

People hear your content as a CallerTune. They get curious. They discover. They can make it their own CallerTunez.

01 · HEAR

People hear your content.

Your sound becomes part of the call experience.

02 · DISCOVER

They get curious.

Post-call discovery and other tools can help them find out more.

03 · PERSONALISE

They make it their own.

They can activate your content as their CallerTunez.

Discovery Tools

More ways for people to find you.

We help your content get discovered, not just heard.

MTN CallerTunez

Listeners can dial *309# to explore and subscribe.

Post-Call SMS

MTN's post-call discovery message can tell callers how to get your tune while the feature remains available.

Discovery Campaigns

One potential-fan USSD campaign is included with each package, with reach varying by package.

Performance

Performance information and reports are available on request, subject to data availability and reporting schedules.

The idea behind the story

“I don't need radio no more. I got ringtones.”

Akon has publicly discussed making songs work as ringtones and using the phone as a discovery surface. The lesson is bigger than one artist: meet people where everyday behaviour already happens.

Creator Economics

Branding first. Discovery next. Monetisation follows.

The commercial opportunity sits alongside the discovery opportunity - not instead of it.

Earn a share of applicable subscription revenue.

The exact calculation basis is governed by the formal CallerTunes Distribution Agreement.

Normal payment cycle: quarterly.

Monthly payment can be requested. Minimum payout threshold: ₦10,000. Monthly revenue statements can be requested.

Revenue Sharing Flow

How applicable subscription revenue moves.

The commercial flow is separate from content deployment: the mobile operator sends applicable revenue through the distribution relationship to the content owner.

Mobile OperatorCollects applicable subscription revenue from subscribers.
02 · Processing
NovaClariusProcesses applicable revenue and reporting under the distribution terms.
03 · Content owner
