Certified units, compared
Rema vs Oxlade
Every plaque is a floor — a Platinum single in the UK means at least 600,000, and could be 1,190,000. This page adds those floors up for two records or two artists, at each certifying body's own published threshold, under identical rules.

TCSN's register is request-based, so a title missing from it proves nothing about what it sold — only that nobody applied. A gap between two artists there can measure paperwork rather than sales, which is why it is counted on its own line.

¹ Not counted — Colombia (Pro Musica Colombia). Listed, never summed: these bodies publish no threshold this page can put on the same scale as the rest.
† Multiplier assumed — Promusicae publishes Oro and Platino thresholds only and never states the arithmetic for a multiple. An N× award is priced here as N × Platinum. RMNZ publishes no multiplier rule: its Chart Rules and About page define Gold and Platinum only, with one threshold each, and never use the words multi-platinum or 2x. An N× award is priced here as N × Platinum.
‡ This body raised its thresholds since 2015 — the figure is today's level, and a plaque awarded before the rise may have cleared a lower bar. Which bodies, and when ↗
§ Ratio assumed — the body publishes its levels in streams and no download-equivalence, so this page converts at 100 streams to a unit, the ratio Denmark and Norway publish for the same measure. IFPI Sverige counts songs in capped streams only (since 1 January 2018) and publishes no stream-to-unit ratio. Its plaques are converted at 100 streams to a unit, the ratio IFPI Danmark and IFPI Norge publish for the same measure; capped streams undercount plays, so the figure is a floor.
How this is counted
One plaque per release per country
At its current tier. Gold → Platinum → 2× Platinum is the same sales recertified, never three sales.
Each body's own threshold
Streams-based bodies — Czechia, Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Norway and Slovakia — are converted with the body's own published download-equivalence, never an estimate.
Not quite everything can be priced
Mexico and Sweden publish their song levels in streams and no download-equivalence — those plaques are converted at 100 streams to a unit, the ratio Denmark and Norway publish, and marked §. Colombia publishes no thresholds. Greece is priced at IFPI's June 2013 level — the last the umbrella body ever published for it — and marked ¶. Poland sets its single levels in złoty of revenue and states no rate; they are converted at 2 zł a single, the rate its own single tables used until the end of 2024, and marked ¶. The unpriced plaques are listed, never summed, and never hidden.
