Submission gate not working
Hello, the submission gate is not working. I have a free account and I can submit my song to every playlist without passing the gate. As an artist it is not bad, but as a curator it is. Please help.

Hello Mondenard, thanks for reaching out.
Please can you give us more detail in this issue?
Consider that not all playlists have gates active.
Let us know!
All the best,

Thanks for answering. I set up a gate on my playlist as a curator (like the playlist), I had plenty of submissions but none of them got me likes on my playlist. So i tried the other way submitting a song to a playlist and I saw that I can submit without passing the existing submission gate. We have a problem here.

Thanks for reporting this Mondenard, please can you send us a link to your playlist?
We will send a submission to test if the gates are working correctly.
All the best,

Hello, we can confirm that the gate is setup correctly.
Please have in mind that now the gates are executed when the curator responds to a submission, not when the submission is sent.
Let us know if you have any questions.
All the best,

Are you guys checking to see if the “like”actually translated over to spotify’s platform? Just because it looks good on your website doesn’t mean it’s working on spotify. Have you guys actually done anything to fix this? Every post I see you just keep saying it gets executed upon the response of a submission but that’s clearly not the case for hundreds of users?! I personally have responded to around 400 submissions and gained zero new followers. My playlist is at 150 followers the same as the day I added to your website over a yesr ago. As a curator there’s no point in using your platform if we aren’t getting any of the benefits .
