Reverdnation is an absolute rip off and when your account expires if your files are too big you can't even listen to them as the owner of the profile.I have gotten way better results from YouTube and Facebook for free.

Truly & Utterly Worthless
Reviewed on 2021-02-25T08:54:25
Utterly, utterly terrible content! More than half the singers on there should have their voice chordscauterized so they are no longer capable of inflicting their noise on the world!
Let's be honest folks if you're music is on here it means you've already failed as a musician...
As for the platform directly any system that has to sneak content to users is bad to begin with but then having the check to ask me to rate it!
Honestly you have no worth or value, the technical and cultural equivalent of a dead whale carcass - stinking, fetid and rotten!

Business Model has flaws
I've been using reverbnation for about 1.5 years, and can share my experience.Their model is kind of flawed in that most people on the site are musicians, very few "pure fans." So - you are "marketing" your music to other musicians. Not that they aren't supportive and good to interact with, but actual fans on the site...very few. Their charts are a bit of a joke. You can literally "buy your way" into higher chart ratings by using the promotional paid services. I'm not sure if that really gains you much though. I've been in the top 10, even # 1 or 2 in my genre (locally, regionally and nationally). I've had about 8 songs get "curated" which hasn't really resulted in anything except locking those songs so they can't be removed from their site. One interesting phenomena, most of my "curated" songs were demos, the final album versions that are far more refined, etc. have not be curated..... strange but shows the randomness of their curation process. I've submitted hundreds if not thousands of "opportunties" and have literally got responses for 2. One was a super low viewership online radio station.... the other was some online blog that I chose to not be featured in. Their paid ads are kind of useful for exposure, however, they have NO paid model or way to get paid when people listen on their platform. This is a major draw back of their site. They do allow you to "distribute" through them, but even then, tracks aren't monetized on their site. They don't even ask for ISRC codes, etc. leaving no chance of being paid on their site. Overall, there are better ways to promote your music (to fans, not other musicians) and almost all other sites allow monetizing of your songs. Good luck, I'd pass on them.

Charges without authorization
Reviewed on 2021-01-22T15:09:56
They will continue to charge you after cancellation. Months of $20 charges on my account while my account status is CLEARLY "inactive" (even says so on their site)and I have gone back and forth with their "help center" a number of times. RIP. OFF. Oh, and they do that thing where you can't get into your account and delete your credit card info after you sign up for a service.

I won paypal but got locked out!
Reviewed on 2020-11-30T17:16:28
After 2 years of paid distribution I canceled the 3 year. I was really sick at the time and may have crossed over them taking the funds.I contacted paypal for as refund. Reverbnation had every opportunity to contest this refund in accordance with the paypal agreement! ReverbNation then blocked my account holding my song’s, info and royalties hostage until I reversed the refund! Even though they were paid in full and held my money for 20 days before the refund they claim it was a chargeback when it was a non-contested refund! Even though the refund closed the transaction they claim it’s still open!

REVERB NATION is a RIP OFF
Reviewed on 2020-11-22T21:39:27
I have been a marketing professional in the music industry and in the 'real world' for almost 30 years.I am also a professional musician.
ReverbNation's promotional tools are smoke and mirrors. Their stats on the paid campaigns are nonsense. When questioned about the stats, they send a boilerplate email explaining the difference between 'views' and 'engagement' which I already knew. NO responses that explain how they justify the results they report on your investment in their ad campaigns.
Simply put: ReverbNation is a rip off. I neglected to check the Better Business Bureau on them before spending over $400 on an ad campaign. If I had, I would see how many complaints are similar to mine.
BEWARE OF REVERBNATION. Do not give them your money. It goes down a digital black hole and they cannot match their stats on the campaign, with the actual engagement you will see in your emails, new fans, or social media. When questioned for real data, they ignore you.
Spend your money on a website for your music or do your own social media posting. Spend your time on your Music, your Art...and save yourself some money and tons of frustration / feeling ripped off.
