  This work presents the application of the q-algebra in the glueballs
spectrum. This algebra will be implemented through Jackson's derivatives in a
Schr\"odinger-like equation, where such an equation comes from the gravity
fluctuations around the braneworld scenario in five dimensions. In our
prescription, we find the shape of the modified spectrum in the AdS/QCD
scenario. The boundary conditions for the spectrum constrain the value of q.
