How do you create a smart link?
Creating a smart link with Madverse is simple: upload your music through our distribution platform, then access the Fan Links tool in your dashboard. Customize your landing page with artwork, branding, and platform preferences, then generate your unique URL. This link automatically aggregates all streaming services where your music is available, making it easy to share across social media, websites, and promotional materials.
What is SmartLink on my phone?
A SmartLink on your phone is a URL that intelligently detects which music streaming apps you have installed and redirects you to your preferred service. When you click a smart link, it presents all available platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, etc.) so you can choose where to listen. For artists, this means fans can access your music wherever they're most comfortable streaming.
Do smart links work for pre-save campaigns?
Yes, Madverse smart links include built-in pre-save functionality. You can create customizable pre-save campaigns that let fans save your upcoming releases before they drop. This builds anticipation, drives algorithmic visibility, and maximizes first-week streaming performance—critical for playlist consideration and chart positioning.
Can I track who clicks my smart links?
Absolutely. Madverse provides comprehensive analytics for all smart links, including total clicks, conversion rates, geographic data, device types, and which platforms fans prefer. This intelligence helps you understand your audience, optimize marketing strategies, and make data-driven decisions about tour routing and promotional focus.
How much do smart links cost?
Smart links are included with all Madverse distribution plans, starting with our free Madverse Vibe tier. Premium plans like Madverse Rise ($19.99/month) and Madverse Star offer unlimited smart links with advanced customization, pre-save campaigns, and detailed analytics—all while you keep up to 95% of royalties.
Can I customize how my smart link page looks?
Yes, Madverse smart links are fully customizable. You can add your artwork, artist photos, brand colors, social media links, and customize button placement. This ensures your landing page reflects your unique aesthetic and provides a cohesive brand experience that converts casual clicks into dedicated fans.
Will smart links work internationally?
Smart links work globally and automatically detect the user's location to prioritize available streaming services in their region. Since Madverse distributes to 150+ platforms worldwide, your smart link ensures fans in any country can access your music on services available to them—maximizing global reach.
How do smart links help with social media promotion?
Smart links are essential for social media marketing because they provide a single, memorable URL for your Instagram bio, TikTok profile, Twitter posts, and Facebook pages. Instead of choosing one platform to promote, you give fans all options, which increases click-through rates, reduces friction, and ultimately drives more streams across all services.
