Spotify Guide
Like with all streaming services, Spotify has an algorithm they use to filter streams to ensure that (for the most part) only "real" streams are counted. It's widely said that there is only a certain number of streams per account per day that will count toward charts, with all other streams from that account still contributing to overall stream numbers. There is no consensus on the exact number of streams that will count, but the consensus is that only 10-20 streams per account will contribute to charts each day.
Filtered streams – the streams that will count for charts (such as Spotify Global 200)
Unfiltered streams – the streams that will add to the counter / overall streams listed on the track
Global 200 Strategy
If you want to participate on a more "intense" level, consider having multiple Spotify accounts and swapping accounts after about 20 plays of the title track (likely 2 playlists and about 5 hours) to increase filtered streams
Do not include any songs from the Global 200 Chart in your playlists
Follow all international streaming guidelines – we need as many streams as possible to be correct!
Important!!!
The same IP address can use multiple Spotify accounts, but all accounts streaming the same song / playlist simultaneously can be seen as bot behavior. Limit to 6 accounts per IP (6 is the presumed limit because that is the number of accounts in a Spotify family plan).
You cannot stream multiple accounts simultaneously on one device. If you are using multiple accounts at the same time, they must be used on different devices and play different playlists.
If you are streaming with a free account, you must stream on pc for your playlist to work properly!
Playlisting
Spotify looks at how songs perform on editorial playlists as well as how listeners find and listen to the track.
High Spotify streams will help the title track be added to editorial playlists.
Once ATEEZ songs are curated into any Spotify editorial playlist, please engage with the tracks on that playlist.
Play only ATEEZ tracks on editorial playlists and share the links to both the song and playlist. This helps keep the track in the playlist longer and potentially gets it added to other playlists.
