In this article we'll show you how to submit your podcast to Spotify. At Springcast, we take care of podcast hosting, so all you have to do is create your podcast on Springcast and distribute it to Spotify.
 

Submit a podcast on Spotify in 4 steps

Submitting 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.
 

1. Copy your unique podcast RSS feed

Every podcast you create within Springcast has its own unique RSS feed. Before submitting your podcast, copy this feed to directories and players, such as Spotify.

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'

Now you can submit your Springcast 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-account. Spotify will use this e-mail address to contact you.

Then click ‘Next’.
 

4. Tell Spotify more about your podcast

If your podcast RSS feed is approved by Spotify, Spotify will ask you for more information about your podcast. Submit the relevant information, select Springcast as your hosting provider and select 'next'.
 

Then check these details and click submit.

Once you have completed these steps, Spotify will start reviewing your podcast. Once your submission has been approved, your show will be on Spotify.

 Please note that this review process by Spotify can finish quickly, but it can also take several working days. Sometimes up to 7 days.
