GrooverReviews 

Thank you to the Groover team for the support and interesting campaign that helps me grow and develop as a small independent artist. Professional work and trust that can showcase your creative work to high-level music experts.
Thanks.

Perfect! I got fair results on a small budget campaign. I also got a discount from Soundcloud and free Hype.

So Happy to get quick answers. Thanks you Groover. I'm an old 72 years old men and it's the first time in my life that I have such a success.

Transparent System. Unlike pitching into the void, you always get a response. The setup is easy on the eyes. Very organized.

I had a very frustrating and concerning experience with Groover.

My Grooviz balance was suddenly reduced to 0 after a “system adjustment.” The 6 Grooviz removed from my account were part of my paid balance, not a bonus or error. I provided proof from my own invoices showing that these credits were purchased, yet they were not restored and no clear explanation was given.

From a consumer perspective, removing paid credits without proper justification raises serious legal concerns under EU consumer protection rules.

The service quality was also extremely disappointing. I received multiple generic, copy-paste style feedback messages from different curators that did not feel personal or useful. Several responses were not even in English.

In some cases, curators claimed they would share or publish my track, but this never happened. More than 50 days have passed with no follow-through.

Overall, I paid for a service that did not deliver meaningful feedback, did not fulfill promises, and removed credits from my account without proper resolution.

I cannot recommend this platform.

Great site, nice people and clear information.

I love the way it works and what they stand for

This company ripped me off for $140.00.
They don't have a live customer service number. They chat with you and pretend they can't understand why your contacting them. They have fake curator list to get you to spend money on fake contacts that will only give you a lame critique on your music as a response. Your music will not get placed on any playlist. You will not receive anything back for the money you spend. Then they tried to get me to join the Groover club to pay $100.00 a month for them to give you training and guidance for your promotion.

Thanks to this wonderful platform, I managed to get answers to my questions, finally getting them from professional people who did not hesitate to speak clearly and motivatingly!

In the past, I have been very critical (and my 'Brutal King' approach pulled no punches), highlighting technical flaws and inefficiencies in the curation system. However, a service's true quality isn't measured when things go smoothly, but by how it handles dissent.
​After a direct exchange, I finally encountered a level of humanity and professionalism that goes beyond cold business logic. They listened to my technical evidence, didn't ignore my feedback, and showed a genuine willingness to improve. For this reason, I am sticking with the platform: when transparency and dialogue are present, collaboration becomes possible. I found real people who stand by their work, which is fundamental for any professional. My perspective has changed: the potential has always been there, but now I’ve finally seen the concrete will to transform it into substance. Now, that is music to my ears!

Oh yeah this is Wassup right here! They were helpful

“I pushed an independent release through Groover on 22 March and within 18 days it had 44+ countries listening, 99 % save rate, 30+ playlists and 6 radio spins. What I like most is that every curator reply feels human—lots of detailed feedback, clear ‘yes/no,’ and several editors followed up off-platform. If you have a properly finished track and want honest ears plus real coverage, this platform delivers

I went to do one campaign and was baffled by how generic and unhelpful everyone was, from curators to the staff.

Some statistics before jumping into it:
Paid $150
16/50 curators came with generic/nonconstructive feedback
1/50 curators came with a promise to share.

The service is marketed as 'Marketing for your music,' 'Promoting your music,' and 'Attention for your music.' It should be "Get Feedback on Your Music."

And instead of providing actual feedback, it was rejections, which the staff has mentioned is okay. So a 15-word text saying something like, 'Good track, high energy, not my taste' is what you pay for!

That is a rejection. Then the staff shifted and said you actually pay for someone to listen to your music. Again, you can determine in 10 seconds if a song is not yours and reject it, allowing the credits to go to someone who genuinely wants to provide proper feedback and listen to it.

Some of the 'feedback' from different curators was also very similar in its markup, like:

Curator A: Keep exploring your sound, and feel free to send more music anytime; I will be happy to listen.

Curator B: Keep creating and sharing your music, and feel free to send more tracks in the future; I will be happy to listen.

The sign-up and campaign creation process did not mention that you would receive feedback or a listen for your plays, which could cause misunderstandings if the platform is not explained to your customer.

I picked curators one by one, but even stations with the genre name said it's not our genre. I.e., sending a techno track to a techno radio station and then them saying, "We don't play techno!"

The staff team responded with, "I'm puzzled; so many thousands of artists did get it." This is a very dismissive way to approach a problem.

They also seem to keep repeating other services and state that pay-for-play is prohibited, which I am not asking about; I am mentioning the poor communications, clarity of the service, and poor execution of the Groover service, not other services.

I am to receive a partial refund, but they did not credit back the reported poor feedback. I will not be using this service again due to the unsatisfactory customer service.

I was 'helped' by Emma and Dorian.

To the reply:

You are making assumptions, which isn't great to do, someone is stating about issues in your service and asking for a refund because I am unhappy with the quality of the service. That is not the time to assume or be rude or unfriendly, which you have been during the entirety of the support conversation.

I know what pay to play is in other industries I work for like paying for a content creator to play a game in the gaming industry. I did nowhere see that Groover is not this and what the service entailed when signing up, everyone understands that not everyone will share it and that is where I commented your flaws of this service and the generic, copy pasted and unhelpful feedback you receive, I have marked all but 1 submissions I got so far with 1 star, and as you can read 2 examples above this, it's copy pasted and generic by two different creators.

"We cannot refund the answered submissions as the service has been provided and the curators have been paid for providing feedback to you."

Yes you can.
The service hasn't been provided; it's not feedback, and if this seriously is the quality you pursue and want to attack your unhappy customers about, then I really hope everyone sees and reads this so they will see what kind of 'feedback' they'll receive.

Its a good opportunity to show new talents and new music feelings to the pros of the industry.

For years, as an independent songwriter, I was looking for a platform like Groover. It gives artists a real opportunity to get their lyrics, music, and creative ideas heard by the right people

My experience with the Groover platform has, unfortunately, been very negative. At first glance, the service seems professional, but the reality is quite different. Most of the feedback I received was extremely generic and gave the impression that the curators hadn’t even listened properly. It’s often the same phrases and clichéd comments that have no real value for an artist who wants to improve their music or get relevant feedback.

Groover also gives the impression that it provides direct access to high-quality curators and media outlets, but in practice, the caliber of many of them is highly questionable. The curator filter is weak, and a large portion of them come across as untrustworthy or completely irrelevant to the given music style.

However, I see the biggest problem in the fact that the service uses marketing and misleading language that suggests a greater chance of actual promotion than actually exists. Ultimately, it comes across more as a system for collecting fees from musicians than as a serious platform for supporting music.

For me, this has been a very disappointing experience. If you’re looking for quality feedback or real connections in the music industry, Groover is not a good choice in my opinion.

They also encourage and exacerbate discrimination against poor/disadvantaged artists, favor the wealthy, refuse to issue refunds, and violate EU consumer rights—because if I am not satisfied with the quality of service, I have the right to a refund

Well organised word fast

Until now, and hope the rest of my career, Groover acts doing a great job connecting artists with playlist curators/influencers making your work more accesible ti everyone.

Used it for 2–3 years, and many of my songs were accepted. In the end, though, the playlists are small (100–5,000 followers), and placements are only temporary (1–4 weeks) before you’re removed again. I don’t recommend it — save your money.
SubmitHub is even worse by the way.
