Certified units, compared

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.

Nigeria — separated.

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.

† Multiplier assumed — AMPROFON publishes no multiplier rule for singles; its own register stacks the levels it has awarded. An N× award is priced here as N × Platino. 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. IFPI’s June 2013 list sets Gold and Platinum only and gives no formula for multiples, although IFPI Greece’s own Digital Singles chart prints 2P and 3P in its Award column. 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. AMPROFON measures singles in audio streams (video streams may be added since November 2020) 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. 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.

Historic figure — the line rests on a figure the body published once and no longer prints, so the bar a plaque cleared may differ from it. ZPAV sets single levels in złoty of revenue — Gold 125,000 zł, Platinum 250,000 zł, Diamond 1,000,000 zł — and its current rules state no rate. They are converted at 2 zł a single, the rate its own tables used from 2017 to the end of 2024, printing every single level in units and złoty side by side, so a Gold single is 62,500 units. The same 2025 rules raised the album rate from 20 zł to 35 zł, so the units behind a złoty level may differ. IFPI Greece publishes no current level. Priced at IFPI's own International Certification Award levels list, updated June 2013 — the last figure ever published for Greece (singles Gold 3,000 / Platinum 6,000 unit sales; international-repertoire albums the same). The body now certifies from its streaming Digital Singles chart and states no ratio, so a plaque awarded today may sit on a different bar.

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.
