With 1,000 or more real, organic followers and active monthly listeners. Bought followers, bots and follow-for-follow growth do not qualify, and neither do playlists built around one artist, one decade or a film soundtrack.
There are 49 countries we cannot send money to. For example if you live in India, Brazil, Mexico, Nigeria and the Philippines this means we cannot pay you.

CURATOR 
You submit your Spotify playlist and our team checks its followers are real
We send you songs to review based on your playlist genres
Withdraw to your bank account whenever you like.
A Spotify playlist curator owns and manages one or more playlists, picks music that fits each playlist’s theme and audience, and keeps those playlists active and engaging.
Eligible curators can join Playlist Push to discover new music, give independent artists thoughtful feedback, and earn money for every song they review.
No. The curator program is only open to people who already own an eligible Spotify playlist, and reviewing songs is not a job you can apply for on its own. There is no version of this that pays you for listening without a playlist behind it.
If you do not own one yet, building a playlist with real, organic followers takes months of consistent work. We have no shortcut to offer, and playlists whose followers were bought, traded or won through follow gates are rejected.
The curator program is not currently available in the following 49 countries, because our payout provider cannot reach a bank account there:
Afghanistan, Argentina, Bangladesh, Benin, Bolivia, Brazil, Cambodia, Cameroon, Chile, China, Colombia, Croatia, Cyprus, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Ethiopia, Ghana, Guatemala, Haiti, India, Iran, Iraq, Kosovo, Malaysia, Mexico, Mongolia, Morocco, Myanmar, Namibia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, Qatar, Romania, Russia, Rwanda, South Korea, Thailand, Turkey, Uganda, Ukraine, Uruguay, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.
If you live in one of these countries you cannot get paid to review songs.
To become a Playlist Push curator, you need at least one eligible Spotify playlist with:
We do not accept playlists with fake followers, bot activity, or growth generated through follow gates and similar services.
These types of playlists are also ineligible:
Curators have to keep meeting these requirements after being accepted. Accounts or playlists that break our guidelines may be removed, and pending rewards may be forfeited.
Approved curators earn money by listening to songs, writing thoughtful reviews, and deciding whether each song is a good fit for their playlists.
Curators earn between $1.25 and $15 per song review. Your reward is based on your Reputation Score, which reflects factors including your playlists’ followers and active listeners, and your activity on Playlist Push.
You are paid for reviewing songs, not for adding them to your playlists. The number of songs available to review varies with your playlists’ genres and artist demand.
No. Paid song reviews happen in one place only: the curator dashboard you get after your application is approved, on songs we send to you.
Public review sites are where artists rate our service as paying customers. They are not connected to curator earnings in any way, and nothing you write there, about a song or about us, is ever paid.
Once you connect a supported bank account and have an available balance, you can request a withdrawal.
Payouts aren't available in every country yet. See 'In which countries is the curator program NOT available?' for the full list.
No. You are paid to listen and give thoughtful feedback, not to add songs.
Add a song only if you genuinely like it and believe it fits your playlist. Playlist Push does not pay for or guarantee playlist placement.
