Submit a podcast on Spotify in 4 steps
Submit your podcasts on Spotify is simple and will only take a few minutes. Just follow the steps below and you'll have your podcast up and running on Spotify in no time.
Every podcast you create within Springcast PRO has its own unique RSS feed. Before submitting your podcast, copy this feed to directories and players, such as Spotify.
1. Go to your Springcast PRO account
2. Select 'Podcast settings' of the podcast you want to submit to Spotify
3. Under 'Podcast settings', you will see your unique RSS feed. Copy the feed
2. Go to Spotify for Creators
Spotify has a special environment just for podcasters, where you can find more information and submit your podcast. You will need to have a Spotify-account in order to do this.
Please read the following steps carefully.
1. Go to
https://creators.spotify.com/
2. Do you already have another podcast on Spotify and therefore already have an existing Spotify for Creators account? Then click 'Log in' in the top right corner and log in. If you don't have an existing Spotify-account yet or if you want to create another Spotify-account to log in to this podcast (e.g. because you don't want to use a private Spotify-account or because you want to manage several podcasts separately), click 'Sign up'. Depending on your choice, follow the steps on ‘Log in’ or ‘Sign up’ below.
Do you choose to log in?
Log in with your existing Spotify or Anchor-account. If you have an Anchor account: by June 2024, Spotify will ask you to change your Anchor-account to a Spotify-account, if you haven't already done so you can click 'Haven't updated your account yet? Sign in with your Anchor details'. Go through the steps. Have you already done this? Then Spotify's dashboard will open up. Then click the image of your account at the top right and click ‘Add a new show’ in the dropdown menu.
Choose 'Find an existing show'
Choose 'Somewhere else'
Now proceed to step 3 from this article.
Do you choose to sign up?
Then log in with a Spotify-account you want to use to submit the podcast or create a new Spotify-account. Then, in the 'What describes you best?' screen, choose 'I already have a podcast'. Now proceed to step 3 from this article.
Now you can submit your Springcast PRO RSS feed. Spotify will automatically check if all information is submitted correctly. If there are any errors, Spotify will flag them here.
NOTE: in order for Spotify to approve your RSS feed, you will need to add at least one episode and a public e-mail address. Make sure you use the same e-mail address you've submitted to the 'podcast settings' of your Springcast PRO-account. Spotify will use this e-mail address to contact you.
Then click ‘Next’.
