The evaluation period is always Friday to Thursday of the following week. On the following Tuesday, the charts are first announced for the music industry, with the official publication on the following Friday.

The German airplay charts commissioned by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (Federal Association of the Music Industry) comprise 200 items and, with 450 stations, represent a representative illustration of music usage on radio in the Federal Republic of Germany. MusicDNA is responsible for the broadcast monitoring service . To determine the ranking, the missions are weighted with points based on the range of the radio stations considered. Often the number of missions is also indicated in the airplay chart.

Media Control created the first German streaming charts in May 2012 (Top 20).
