Gleam Competitions
The reviews for the Shopify App are mixed, with both positive and negative feedback from users. Positive aspects include easy navigation, good customer service, useful features for running giveaways and competitions, and the ability to grow social media following and email lists. Users appreciate the platform for its effectiveness in engaging customers and driving traffic to their sites. However, negative feedback revolves around issues with pricing and billing, lack of clarity in setup instructions, language support limitations, confusion with account login processes, and the need for multiple paid upgrades to access certain features. Some users also expressed dissatisfaction with customer service responses and felt that the app could be improved.

Gleam is a great app to host a giveaway. It is very user friendly and easy to navigate. We were able to host multiple giveaways and get a lot of new email subscribers this way, which was also very easy to download once the giveaway ended. I do wish that there were more options for branding the landing page and sign-up completion.
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...
Thanks for the feedback, we've reached out directly via support to solve these issues with you - let us know if you were able to get them fixed! This certainly doesn't sound like the quality we pride our setup experience on.
We LOVE Gleam. Have used it every month for 6 years. We do a monthly giveaway that has consistently brought traffic to our website.
Perfect. Good Customer Service and Help. Very Useful.
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...
