Reporting Support
Reporting is a vital part of being a license holder. CCLI relies on your reporting to distribute royalty payments fairly and accurately to the songwriters and publishers whose work your licenses permit you to copy or reproduce.
If you report manually, we will notify you when it's your turn to report. During your reporting period please report on a regular basis, ideally weekly, or whenever you have reproduced songs in services, made copies, or emailed/shared MP3s to practice.
If you use participating worship software you can set up automatic reporting. To ensure your auto-reporting is accurate, we recommend connecting to SongSelect to access free lyrics with the correct CCLI song number.
To report manually, follow the guides below or watch our video help guides. If you get stuck, please contact our Customer Support.

To report, you’ll need a CCLI Profile account.
1. Visit reporting.ccli.com
Click Create a CCLI Profile and complete your details. If you’re a SongSelect user, you’ll already have an account, and you can sign in with your existing username and password.
2. Join your Church/Organization
To link your account to your organization you’ll need an Access Code. Your organization’s CCLI Administrator may have this, or should be able to invite you to join the organization. Contact CCLI if you get stuck.
3. Add other users
Click PROFILE from the USER menu to manage your account. If you’re the first person to be linked to your church/organization, you’ll automatically become its Account Administrator. This means you can add other Users who will then be able to sign in and report. You can also assign others to be Administrators.

Report under your Church Copyright License each time you reproduce (project, type out, copy & paste) the words of a song to assist congregational singing.
1. Select the correct song
On the Search & Report (Home) page, search for the first song you wish to report, using both the title and author if you know it.
Often your search will return multiple results, with the closest matches at the top. Click the i icon next to the song’s title if you need to confirm you are choosing the correct song or version.
2. Report song use
To report a use of the song, simply click the REPORT SONG button.
If you need to report more than one use of the song, for example, you’ve used the song more than once since you last reported, click the (+) icon to report additional uses of the song.
Then simply repeat this process for any other songs you’ve used since you last reported.
If possible, you should report on a weekly basis, even if you have nothing to report. Telling us this helps us to know that your reporting is accurate and up-to-date.
To confirm you have nothing to report simply click NOTHING TO REPORT then CONFIRM.
