Frequently asked questions
We place your track on active Apple Music playlists matched to your genre, where real listeners discover and stream it. No pitching, no rejections — just placements that drive real plays and new fans.
Absolutely. Apple Music listeners are paid subscribers with high engagement and among the best per-stream royalty rates in the industry, so reaching them can be especially valuable for your earnings.
Yes. All streams come from genuine listeners on real playlists, fully within Apple Music's terms. No bots, ever.
From 8–12 placements on Starter up to 50–70 on Pro, depending on your package. Each tier guarantees its placement count up front.
Very few do — most focus only on Spotify. RealPlaylistReach is one of the only platforms running dedicated Apple Music campaigns, which means less competition for placements.
Yes — see Spotify playlist promotion. Many artists run both for maximum reach.
Apple Music playlist promotion, done right
Apple Music playlist promotion gets your song onto real Apple Music playlists where engaged, paying listeners can discover it. Because Apple Music's audience is overwhelmingly subscription-based, those listeners tend to stream more consistently and generate some of the highest royalty rates in streaming — making every placement count.
The catch: almost no promotion service actually offers Apple Music campaigns. Most chase Spotify alone, leaving a wide-open lane on a platform with serious earning potential. RealPlaylistReach runs dedicated Apple Music campaigns with the same transparency and guarantees as our Spotify work.
How it works
Pick your song, choose a campaign, and we pitch it to genre-relevant Apple Music playlists within 48 hours. Placements land within 10 business days, and you track every one in your dashboard. No bots, no fake plays — just real listeners and real streams.
Promote on both platforms
For the widest reach, many artists pair this with Spotify playlist promotion and run campaigns on both at once. Compare options on our packages page, or start your Apple Music campaign now.

Start My CampaignTry it free before you pay for a campaign
Our free playlist trial covers Apple Music as well as Spotify. One track per artist, no card, no subscription: we pitch it to a genre-matched set of real curators and email you an honest report on how it was received. Placements are not guaranteed on the free tier — that is the honest trade-off for it costing nothing, and it lets you judge the process on your own song before committing budget.
Why Apple Music is worth pitching separately
Apple Music has a smaller audience than Spotify, and that fact hides three advantages. There is no free tier, so essentially every listener is a paying subscriber, which usually produces a higher effective per-stream rate. Competition for placement is much lower, because the large majority of independent artists pitch Spotify only and never submit to Apple at all. And library adds — Apple's equivalent of the save — are central to how it surfaces music, so engaged listeners count for more.
The practical conclusion is not to choose between platforms but to run both, since nearly all the pre-release work is shared. One master, one set of artwork, one delivery to your distributor, and then two pitches that take about ten minutes each. Our Apple Music playlist guide walks through claiming your Apple Music for Artists profile, submitting properly, and the optimisations most artists skip — adding time-synced lyrics chief among them.
