Is there a minimum spend?

Yes. A $55 minimum applies on popular music genres.

Do you guarantee playlist or channel placement?

No. One Submit is 100% organic. Every submission is guaranteed a written review from the curator, but whether your track gets added is the curator's decision. No bots, no fake streams, no guaranteed placements.

What do I get for the price?

Each submission is reviewed by an independent curator who runs a real playlist, channel, blog, station or label. You receive written feedback on every track, and if the curator likes it, they add it.

This one's different. TikTok influencers on One Submit range from 500K to 8 million followers. The price depends on their audience size. They create original content using your track, which means real exposure to real people who actually use the app. You don't control the creative direction, which is how it should be. Authentic content performs better than scripted promos anyway. Playlist placements are not guaranteed. Curators make the final decision based on whether they feel the artist’s music is a good fit for their playlist.

How Much Does Music Promotion Cost?

Honestly, less than you'd think. Submissions start from $4. You pick the channels, you set the budget, you decide how many curators you want to reach. No hidden fees, no packages you have to buy.

Here's the full breakdown.

What You're Paying For

Every submission on One Submit is a paid review. You're not buying a placement guarantee. What you're guaranteed is that your music gets heard by a real person who will listen and respond in writing.

That's it. No vague promises. No automated systems pushing your track to dead accounts. Just a direct connection between your music and someone who cares about finding new artists.

One thing worth knowing about popular genres

Pop, rock, and hip-hop are the most competitive genres on the platform. A minimum campaign spend of $55 applies for these genres. That's not arbitrary. It's because those curators get a high volume of submissions and you need enough reach to get meaningful results.

Common Questions

Can I mix channels in one campaign?

Yes. Most artists do. You can submit to Spotify playlists, blogs, radio stations, and labels all in the same campaign, from one dashboard.

Is there a refund?
If a curator doesn't review your submission, you get a refund for that submission. If you've completed payment you can't change your genre or get a full campaign refund, so double-check everything before you pay.

How do I pay?
PayPal or credit card.
