*The information on this page is correct as of April 14th 2026.
Automatic Promotion Participation is a setting that automatically submits works for promotions run by DLsite, such as discount sales.
As of the latest update, your automatic participation settings will be reflected even if you change the setting after the promotion was announced.
Changed in this update
- Previously: Automatic participation settings at the time the promotion was announced were enacted.
- From now on: Even after the announcement, automatic participation changes will be enacted during the submission period.
- If you set it to ON: Works will be added to promotions that are currently accepting submissions.
- If you set it to OFF: Works will be removed from promotions that are currently accepting submissions.
- *Works will not be removed from the promotion if settings are changed during the period before it starts when submissions are suspended, or when the promotion is ongoing.
[Important Notes]
- If there are works you do not wish to be submitted for promotions automatically, please change the setting to "OFF" on the Automatic Promotion Participation Settings page.
If there are multiple promotions accepting submissions at the same time, the combination of promotions might lead to a work being submitted to one promotion over another, or for no automated submission to occur.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. If automatic participation is set to "ON", when will the work be added to a promotion?
When a work is set to automatically participate in promotions, it will be added automatically to promotions for which it meets the criteria that are either ongoing or accepting submissions.
Q2. If there is more than one promotion accepting submissions, will my work be submitted to all of them?
For promotions that allow simultaneous participation, works willl be added to each promotion for which it meets the submission criteria.
- Major seasonal sales (Spring, Summer, Winter, etc.) will take priority
- For other promotions, the one with the earliest start date will take priority.
Q3. If my work is currently in a promotion that doesn't allow simultaneous participation, will it be submitted for another promotion that also doesn't allow simultaneous participation?
If a work is already in a promotion, it will not be submitted for another promotion.
Q4. If I manually enter a work for a promotion, what happens if I change its automatic participation settings?
Changing the automatic participation settings won't change the participation status of works manually entered into promotions.
However, if you selected not to enter the work into a promotion, changing automatic participation settings to "ON" will cause the work to be submitted.
