Verified by Mintly: how the artist badge works

Mintly Life is a community-built platform — every track on it goes through a real human review. The coral badge on a profile means one thing: that artist has been reviewed and approved by the Mintly Life team.

The badge is granted only after a Mintly Life reviewer confirms the account has an active fanbase, no AI-generated songs or content, and an approved artist identity.

Who can get verified

The verified badge is for artist accounts only. It is not available on listener accounts. Personal profiles are for fans and music lovers who follow artists, like songs, and build libraries.

If you create music, the badge tells listeners that Mintly has confirmed your profile is an approved creator on this platform. It is a trust signal for artists, not a popularity score.

How to get verified

Apply at artists.mintly.life. Use the same email you use for your artist services. Tell us about your music and share links where we can hear your work.
Wait for review. Every application is reviewed by a real person. We keep Mintly curated and community-focused rather than giving badges automatically.
Get the badge. Once approved, the coral verified mark appears on your artist profile. You can mention it in your bio so listeners recognize your official account.

What the badge does not mean

It is not a popularity metric. New artists can receive it the same day they are approved.
It is not for listener accounts. Only approved artist profiles receive the verified badge.
It is not permanent. Mintly may remove verification if an account is misused or no longer meets our guidelines.
