Save time and money.

Have a question? Call IFTA®

.

Membership in IFTA saves your company time and money — through AFM discounts, savings on umbrella stands at industry events, reduced fees on IFTA Arbitration and IFTA Collections, and by relying on IFTA’s expertise rather than expensive outside advisors.

IFTA ArbitrationTM is available to resolve disputes over distribution agreements through a panel of industry-wise arbitrators in 18 countries. Filing a notice of IFTA arbitration alone frequently generates a quick resolution and the overall

process itself is set up for maximum effi ciency. Members also enjoy discounts in the process.

IFTA CollectionsTM is available to ensure that royalties arising from secondary uses of your titles are claimed and collected in some 30 countries. IFTA Collections is comprehensive and available to you at a signifi cantly lower cost than with for-profi t companies. IFTA Collections has distributed more than $100 million in royalties since 1994.

You and your staff can call IFTA for answers. We’ll determine how others have resolved similar challenges without exposing sensitive information, point you to available resources, give advice or connect you with other Members.

Our expert staff keeps you informed about emerging opportunities and threats to your business, and works with you to determine the best course of action. Our goal is to help you operate freely as the marketplace changes.
