People highlight the platform's ease of use, simple website design, and the opportunity it provides to share their creativity without upfront costs.

It would be very helpful if one could see a payout. It shows how much your record has generated from streams but nothing in finances. It’s very frustrating and has me considering switching.

Hi Linda,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review.

We do offer distribution to YouTube, but it’s currently available only to users who have switched to the new version of FreshTunes at freshtunes.com

You can register there and then transfer your account data from the version you’re currently using. I’ll reach out to you via email to help with the process.

Best wishes,

Not the Worst, but far from the Best

I started using FreshTunes in 2023 while looking for a free distributor. I wasn’t too concerned about how long it took to review my songs; I just wanted them approved and out there.

The site itself is pretty solid. The dashboard is clean, easy to use, and uploading tracks felt straightforward.

But I did run into a few annoying things. After releasing music under two different artist names, I couldn’t add a third unless I upgraded to their Pro plan. That felt a bit limiting, especially for someone experimenting with different projects.

Also, when a song got rejected and needed edits, I didn’t get any email notification. I had to log in and check the site manually, which isn’t ideal if you’re waiting on updates.

Still, I’d say FreshTunes is pretty artist-friendly overall. They’re not trying to squeeze you for every penny, and for a free service, it’s decent.

So yeah...
FreshTunes isn’t perfect, but it’s not the worst distributor I’ve used either.

“FreshTunes Truly Cares About Artists!”

I’m very satisfied with FreshTunes. Their professionalism and customer service are excellent.

Excellent customer support

Excellent customer support.

I had a problem in which I had unpaid royalties by another distributor from another streaming service, they managed to get in touch with that specific streaming service and deliver my owed royalties successfully.

They also offer distributor migration services in which you can smoothly migrate your music to FreshTunes.

They did some positive changes as a company in 2024 and they certainly did improve from then on, most 1 start reviews come from before that time so keep that in mind before judging from the reviews.

Very bad experience,My song is still in draft, it has been a month and there was no problem with my song, I had given proof that it is my own song, even after this I did not get any response, the song was just put in draft.

support doesnt work

I’ve been waiting for more than 20 days for my song to be published on Spotify and other platforms. Support told me it would take about a week, but I haven’t received any response or update. I’ve tried to contact them several times, and communication is practically nonexistent.

The platform works fine when there are no issues, but as soon as a problem arises, their support is nowhere to be found. If my case is not resolved soon, I will have to look for a more reliable distributor.

I do not recommend FreshTunes if you’re looking for speed and consistent customer service.
