Turn downloads
into followers.
Gate your file downloads behind social actions. Fans follow on Spotify, subscribe on YouTube, join Discord, or follow on Instagram before accessing your file. You grow real followers with every download.
A fan takes one small action.
You gain a real follower.
Download gates work on a simple principle: fans get something valuable in exchange for a quick social action. The exchange feels fair to fans because the content is genuinely free, and rewarding for you because every download translates into a real, engaged follower who is more likely to stream future releases.
Nine ways to
ask. One tap to unlock.
Mix and match any combination. Add, reorder, or remove actions per gate - fans complete them in a clean step-by-step wizard.
Spotify Follow
Turn every download into a Spotify follower who gets your future releases in Release Radar.
Instagram Follow

Everything you
need to know.
Is it really free, or is there a hidden catch?
100% free forever. No credit card, no trial, no feature gates. Ads on the public site keep the lights on - your gate pages themselves stay clean for your fans.
How does the social action verification work?
Fans click through to follow on each platform in a guided step-by-step wizard. They complete each action one by one, then instantly access the download. We don't ask for their passwords - ever.
What file types and sizes are supported?
Any file type: audio (WAV, MP3, FLAC), zip archives for stems and sample packs, images, PDFs, presets. Upload limit is 100 MB per file - plenty for most releases and stems.
Can I see which actions convert the best?
Yes. The built-in analytics dashboard shows visits, downloads, conversion rates, and which social actions perform best - so you can optimize which combination you use next time.
Can I customize the look of my download page?
Absolutely. Customize the page with your brand colors, artwork, and style. Make it feel like it belongs to your release - not like a generic third-party tool.
Can I password-protect a gate in addition to social actions?
Yes. Add an extra layer of control with optional password protection on any download gate. Perfect for exclusive releases, VIP drops, or label-only previews.
