# Collection Royalties
### What are Royalties?
People who create works of art, music, stories or anything else creative— own the intellectual property of said work.
Traditionally, an entity operating between creators and collectors receives a fee for facilitating value exchange. However, with NFT Embed, anyone can encourage or make a direct sale! People don't need an extensive system to help them promote the deal. Instead, they can take any NFT compatible with NFT Embed and pop any verified creation on a webpage!
Easily create websites for NFTs and then embed any creation you want! Whether yours, a friend or a famous work. (Like a [**Beeple**](https://opensea.io/beeple) or [**Ethos by Aeforia!**](https://nftembed.org/embed/nft?saleSplitAddress=\&saleSplitFee=10\&showMarket=true\&tokenAddress=0xb932a70a57673d89f4acffbe830e8ed7f75fb9e0\&tokenId=17440))

If you own it, you'll earn a sale; if you love it, you can make a commission!
{% endhint %}
The key here, if you're a collection owner, you can quickly establish an effective method for exchanging your work directly with collectors and no more using confusing networks with agents and numerous fees.
### Setting Royalties
NFT sales using NFTEmbed reference utilize [EIP-2981: NFT Royalty Standard](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-2981).
{% hint style="info" %}
What is EIP-2981?\
\
A standardized way to retrieve royalty payment information for non-fungible tokens (NFTs) to enable universal support for royalty payments across all NFT marketplaces and ecosystem participants.
{% endhint %}
Even if a contract already has royalties set, you should use our tool to ensure royalties get enforced with the Universe XYZ contracts.
We developed a tool to set royalties for collections that you own quickly— when royalties are not getting reflected through NFTEmbed.
{% hint style="success" %}
[**Royalty Registry Contract**](https://etherscan.io/address/0x2A9647901684caaeC6f026eEc0b1355195313cB5)
{% endhint %}
You'll be required to connect a digital wallet, own a collection, have an address you want the royalties to go to and then pay a small transaction fee to set the percentage.
