Hundreds of Airings for Nivea Commercial Across Europe

[mmuser]

Hi everyone,

My music was used in a Nivea commercial that aired across multiple European countries, including Germany, Italy, Austria, Slovenia, Serbia, Croatia, and Greece. I was able to detect hundreds of detections in Germany and Italy via TuneSat, but I also found many others in other countries through YouTube. In Germany and Italy, the earliest detection dates back to November 5, 2020, on SAT.1 (AT), and the most recent one on January 10, 2022, on RAI Uno.

I read the very informative article I found here, explaining how to track and claim royalties for commercials airing in the U.S. using TuneSat and Numerator.

I’ve been registered with BMI for the past 8 months (I’m Greek-based). Does anyone know if there’s an official process to report these detections for European airings? If so, which BMI email should I contact?

I also know that the track was purchased from Pond5, and interestingly, I saw that Pond5 themselves used it in one of their featured videos around the time it was purchased.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
