What Fintage House does

Fintage House is a privately owned global film and TV rights company headquartered in The Hague, Netherlands, with operating offices in Budapest and London and consultants across 11 countries. The group operates three complementary business lines: Fintage CAM (Collection Account Management), which acts as a neutral third-party administrator collecting and distributing production revenues among producers, financiers, sales agents, and profit participants; Fintage AVPR (Audiovisual Producer Rights), which identifies and collects non-music secondary royalties directly from collecting societies across 35+ sources and 100+ territories for 400+ rights holders; and Lasso, a digital rights management platform handling YouTube channel operations, anti-piracy takedowns, OTT distribution (Amazon Prime, Google Play, Apple TV, Tubi), and user-generated content monetization.

The company is built on proprietary technology infrastructure including the CAMelot client portal (launched 2023), the AVPR Dashboard with planned IMDB data feed integration and social media data gathering, and the Lasso Digital Rights Platform. Fintage is GDPR and CCPA compliant, has served clients such as FilmNation, See-Saw Films, Voltage Pictures, Red Arrow Studios, and Millennium Media, and maintains board representation at EU collecting societies including AGICOA. Co-CEOs Niels Teves and Robbert Aarts, both with entertainment-law and merchant-banking backgrounds, have led the company since the late 1990s.

Revenue is generated through managed services fees (CAM), licensing and royalty collection (AVPR), and transaction-based fees (Lasso), with custom multi-year pricing tied to project size and complexity. The group operates with 51-100 employees across 18 nationalities, pursues a venture strategy of minority investments in adjacent IP rights companies (Cleriti House, Zanoise, AllTrack), and partners with GreenSlate for residuals management. Fintage is privately held with no institutional investors, no public listing, and no disclosed funding rounds; it is operationally profitable on an organic basis.

Direct peers

• Entertainment Partners: Leading provider of entertainment production finance, payroll, residuals, and rights management services to film/TV. Directly comparable to Fintage's CAM and AVPR offerings, with a much larger customer base spanning major studios and independents.
• Cast & Crew (Entertainment Partners after merger): Major entertainment payroll, residuals, and production accounting provider. The Cast & Crew and Entertainment Partners combination created the largest scaled competitor in Fintage's core CAM and residuals workflows.
• Moneypenny / Sargent-Disc: Long-standing film/TV payroll, residuals, and production accounting services firm. Closely comparable to Fintage CAM, particularly for independent and mid-budget productions.
• FilmTrack (now part of Grip): Rights, royalties, and contract management software for film/TV and broader entertainment. Closest direct competitor in the AVPR-style secondary rights and royalty admin segment, with a SaaS-led delivery model.
• Rightsline (now part of Vistex): Rights management and royalty platform serving media, publishing, and music rights holders. Comparable to Fintage's AVPR and Lasso workflows in providing structured rights catalog management and royalty accounting.
• Pex: Digital content identification and UGC rights platform monetizing user-generated uses of copyrighted video. Directly comparable to Lasso's anti-piracy, claim management, and YouTube/UGC monetization offering.
• Audible Magic: Content identification and rights enforcement technology used by UGC platforms including YouTube. Comparable to the technology underpinnings of Lasso's content management and piracy protection services.

Emerging players

• Reprtoir: Music and audiovisual rights management platform for catalogs, licensing, and royalty accounting. Comparable in scope to Fintage AVPR but with a SaaS-first delivery and music-led customer base.
• BMAT: Music and audio identification, usage tracking, and rights administration technology provider. Adjacent peer with comparable technology used by collecting societies and rights holders — overlaps with Lasso's CID and rights reporting stack.

Others

• AGICOA: European collecting society managing secondary rights (retransmission, cable, satellite) for audiovisual producers. Both a key partner and indirect counterparty for Fintage's AVPR business; comparable as a royalty aggregation layer.
