Earning Karma through interacting with Vibes is only the latest development in Unitea’s vision to foster and reward meaningful artist-fan relationships. Since the platform’s inception in October 2019, Unitea users have been earning Karma by syncing the app with their Spotify or Apple Music accounts, streaming and sharing music, and interacting with fellow music enthusiasts on the platform.
Karma can be redeemed for a range of artist-specific rewards including: experiential – meet & greets, event tickets and VIP upgrades; physical – prize packs and merchandise gifting; and digital – AR rewards. From SOFI TUKKER, STS9, and The Disco Biscuits, to Martin Garrix, Tokimonsta and Oliver Tree, artists across the genre spectrum are utilizing Unitea to reward fandom at scale.
“Our vision is to build a more equitable social media model where everyone wins,” Unitea co-founder and tech-visionary Ketan Rahangdale explains. “Artists build real relationships with their fans, who supercharge music streams and content creation in exchange for authenticated rewards of tangible value.“
Foundationally, Unitea is a revolutionary tool that helps artists directly connect with listeners through in-app messaging, identify top supporters worldwide, and build superfan ‘Crew Chats’ that operate as tight-knit micro-communities.
