v1.5 – Web Submissions & Pricing Update
Web Submissions are now Open!
• Hosts can create their own web submission room by going to their dashboard on the web portal and clicking “Customize Room”.
• Artists can submit to your room through a web browser now!
• The web submission portals run inside TikTok, Instagram, Youtube browsers etc.
• Artists can have 1 free submission in the web submission portal at a time (until skips go live)
• Users can see the line/queue on the web.
• Artists who submit using the web submission will not be required to sign up, login, or have a profile. But they are limited on their capabilities.
Pricing Update
After a lot of deliberation and chatting with hosts, we have decided to move away from a commission-based earnings approach to a fee-based one. Hosts will no longer pay a commission for Hit Play. Instead a small fee will be added to checkout of all credits on the platform.
