For example, if a church has 8 musicians on the worship team, and learns one new song per week, then 8 photocopies per week would be produced, making over the course of a year 416 copies. The appropriate category in this case might be Category B, which would cost $209.00.

As another example, let's refer to that church again, with 8 musicians on the worship team. Let's say that they learn a new song for 48 weeks of the year (8x48=384 copies), then at Easter photocopy 6 songs (6x8=48 copies), the same for Christmas (another 48 copies), there are 3 songs photocopied for 5 weddings (3x5x8=120 copies), 2 songs photocopied for 2 funerals (2x2x8=32 copies), and one third of the worship team loses their previously made copies of other songs made in the current and the previous years, so new copies have to be made (416x2/3=280 copies). Taking that example, that church would be making something like 912 copies in the year, requiring Category D, costing $409.00.

When determining the correct category size for your church take into account the extra copies made for special events such as Easter or Christmas celebrations, weddings, funerals, church camps, children and youth programs.

The Total Fee includes Licence, service fees and GST.

When you report the copies made in the year, we will compare the size category needed for those copies is the same as what was paid for. If there's a difference, we will issue either a refund or an invoice, to ensure that you have paid for the number of copies made.
