How to claim your podcast on Spotify

Claiming your podcast on Spotify for Podcasters

Updated yesterday

If you are not hosted by Spotify but would like to view your Spotify data, you can do so by claiming your show on Spotify for Podcasters:

  1. Visit Spotify for Creators: Go to the Spotify for Creators portal.

  2. Log In: Sign in with your existing Spotify account.

  3. Add Your Show:

    1. If you are new: Select "Find an existing show."

    2. If you already have other shows: Click your Avatar (top right) > "Add a new show."

  4. Select "Somewhere else": Choose this option specifically because your podcast is hosted on Acast (or another host) and not directly on Spotify.

  5. Verify via RSS: Paste your Acast RSS feed link. Spotify will show a masked version of your email address (e.g., p***@gmail.com).

  6. Enter the 8-Digit Code: Check your email for the code and paste it into the box.

    Note: If you don't see the email, ensure your "Owner Email" in your Acast settings is correct and not hidden.

  7. Submit Metadata: Confirm your category, language, and country.

Done! Your Spotify dashboard will populate with Spotify-specific analytics (like listener demographics and music tastes) within 24 hours.
