Questions about gate and curator status

Hi DailyPlaylists team,

I have some quick questions:

1. Gate & Spotify

• Is it compliant to require follow/save/pre-save for submissions or placement via your gate?

• Do these uses align with Spotify’s Terms & anti-manipulation rules? Any clear do’s/don’ts or risk if I gate my own playlist?
  

2. Curator status

• Once my playlist passes ~1,000 saves, what are the criteria and steps to apply?

• What proof do you need, and are there ongoing requirements?

Thank you,

Balazs
