Best Practices

✅ Do This

  • Create a link on your profile: "🎵 Request a Song"
  • Set clear rules (e.g., no explicit content, no repeats within 1 hour)
  • Check requests regularly and update the queue
  • Accept and reject quickly so guests know their status
  • Announce tips on screen or via announcements
  • Thank guests who tip

❌ Avoid This

  • Letting the queue get too long (guests lose interest)
  • Rejecting songs without reason
  • Ignoring tipping requests (guests paid for a reason!)
  • Setting tip amounts too high

Common Questions

Q: Can I play songs from Spotify directly?

Song Requests displays a queue of song titles and artists. You can use that information to search and play songs in Spotify, YouTube, etc.

Q: How do tips get paid to me?

Tips are processed through Stripe and deposited to your bank account. Stripe takes a small processing fee (typically 2-3%).

Q: Can I disable tips?

Yes, you can disable tipping at any time in session settings. Guests can still request songs, just won't see the tip option.
