Tidal Pre-Saves That Land in the Collection
Tidal has no free tier, so every listener on it is a paying subscriber — and almost no pre-save tool reaches them. Artlink adds your release to their collection on release day, in the same campaign as Spotify and Apple Music.
Real Tidal collection adds, not a reminder email · Runs in the same campaign as Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube · Delivery reported per platform, with Tidal broken out
The audience your pre-save campaign is quietly skipping
Tidal discontinued its free ad-supported tier, which means every fan you reach there is already paying for music. Yet among the major pre-save tools only Linkfire delivers to it. Feature.fm and Hypeddit stop at Spotify, Apple Music, and Deezer. If your campaign leaves Tidal off, those fans get a link and are trusted to remember a date, while everyone else gets the record placed in their library.
Built for the way artists actually promote music
A real write, not a redirect
A Tidal pre-save performs an actual collection add when the release goes live. The fan does nothing on release day and the record is simply there.
One campaign, every service
Tidal sits beside Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and YouTube Music on the same page, and each fan authorizes only the service they already use.
Tidal broken out in the report
The delivery report separates Tidal from every other platform, so you can see whether a smaller, higher-value audience was genuinely served.
How it works
Switch Tidal on
Create a pre-save campaign, paste your scan source — a Spotify URL or URI, an ISRC, or a UPC/EAN barcode — and enable Tidal in the platform list.
Fans connect Tidal once
From your campaign page a fan authorizes their Tidal account. The handshake is single-use and held server-side, so it works the same from an artlink.live subdomain or your own custom domain.
Release day writes and reports
When the record drops, Artlink adds it to every connected fan's collection and tells you how many landed, along with the reason for any that did not.
Frequently asked questions
Can you pre-save on Tidal?
Yes, with Artlink. A fan authorizes their Tidal account from your campaign page before release day, and when the release goes live it is added to their Tidal collection automatically — the same way a Spotify pre-save works.
Does Tidal have a built-in pre-save feature?
Not for artists. Tidal exposes an API that a platform like Artlink uses to add a release to a fan's collection on release day, but there is no pre-save tool inside Tidal itself that you can set up on your own.
Do fans need a paid Tidal subscription?
Tidal no longer offers a free ad-supported tier, so any fan with a Tidal account is already a subscriber. They just authorize it once from your campaign page.
Which pre-save platforms actually support Tidal?
Artlink and Linkfire deliver to Tidal. Feature.fm and Hypeddit cover Spotify, Apple Music, and Deezer, so a Tidal listener on one of those campaigns gets a release-day email at best rather than a collection add.
Can I run Tidal and Spotify pre-saves in one campaign?
Yes, and it is the same campaign, the same URL, and the same release identifier. Each fan picks their service, and the delivery report shows how each platform performed so you can see where your audience actually is.
