SoundCloud Reward Template

Use this SoundCloud Reward template to promote SoundCloud tracks, grow SoundCloud followers, and reward your most active fans with exclusive downloads.

Run a focused campaign where fans complete key actions, then unlock an early access track or secret download page.

If you have a new track ready to drop, you can let loyal fans hear it first by asking them to follow you on SoundCloud and repost one of your best tracks. This turns every campaign participant into a promoter who helps promote your music and get it heard by new listeners.

  • Explain The Actions: Tell fans exactly which track to repost and why following helps future releases.
