App is not working. Tried creating a first competition with Instagram, Facebook and link entries. Says Facebook URL isn't valid, so I tried fixing it and that didn't work. Ended up removing the Facebook entries. Then saved my work and tried to publish and nothing happens. Just loads and then crashes. Also, setup isn't the clearest. Asks you to continue with Google or Apple, when you do, says you don't have an account and asks you to create an account. Would be easier to have create account page on the first setup screen...

Although Gleam has very limited features on the free plan, it is still worth using. We love the look of the Gleam's new design; via the frontend and it fairly easy to set up. We have not encountered any issues. It would be nice if the team could introduce a cheaper plan; perhaps for $20. That way the application would attract smaller businesses like ours.

I have been with this company since their early days, there is no other better competition platform. If there is an option for giveaways they offer it. Do not look any further, go with Gleam

Pretty cool, but wish there was more support at the free level. As a startup, I don't have a lot of funds for monthly services right now but still want to do normal things like grow my newsletter subscription to the few people who will participate. I feel like subscription levels should be centered around the number of users being reached or something...

So far so good, very easy navigation, better than other apps that do similar things. Looking forward to using Gleam in future giveaways.

We have used them for a few years. I like it. Could use more features but works well. I would not be afraid to use it.

Work on Gleam Competitions?
Any amount puts this listing above the review-data order, on the board and in Marketing and conversion. Every amount and every click is printed in public. Paying also opens a private page for this listing – that is where the badge for your site, the share card and your deal live. Everything you can do here, including what money cannot buy and how to get this listing corrected or taken down.
Not ready to pay for anything? Take the badge – it shows this listing’s live rank on your own site, it is free, and it always was.
Claiming is free and it shows: the listing turns gold in every list – the same highlight a paid card carries – with a Claimed badge, in the exact place its reviews put it. It also earns the only followed link on this site: a claimed listing that has paid nothing links to its own website dofollow – a paid placement never does, because a link that was paid for is an ad. Claiming moves nothing.
