Spotify for Artists lets you see audience stats, promote your music, and manage your profile.

Claim an artist profile

Note: You can’t request to join a claimed team. If your team has already been claimed, ask the team’s Admin to invite you.

Ask your team to invite you

If your artist profile has already been claimed, ask your team's Admin to invite you.

If you can’t reach your Admin, contact us.

Get instant access with a distributor

Deliver music with a preferred provider? You automatically get access to Spotify for Artists when you submit a request.

Join a team before your first release

Ask your label or distributor for your artist link or URI (spotify.com/artist… or spotify:artist:…).

Then contact us with your artist link and the UPC or EAN of your upcoming release.

Labels and distributors

Joining your label team allows you to view your label’s entire catalog in one place.

The catalog you see matches the distributor and label names in your releases' metadata.

Ask your team to invite you

If someone on your team already has Admin access, ask them to invite you.

If you can’t reach your Admin, contact us.

Create a new label team

  • Submit a request
  • Add links to a few tracks or albums your company owns to verify your request
  • We review the request manually, so approval can take a few days

Note: You can’t request to join an existing team. If your team’s already been created, ask the team’s Admin to invite you.

Pending claims

Only 1 request can be active per artist profile or label at a time.

If you or someone else has already submitted a request to claim the artist profile or label, no one else can submit a request while it’s under review.

While a request is pending

  • You can’t submit a new request for the same artist profile or label
  • You’ll see a pending request screen in Spotify for Artists

What happens next

  • If we approve your request, you get access to the artist or label team in Spotify for Artists
  • If we reject your request, we email you with next steps

If you have a request under review, you don’t need to do anything. We’ll be in touch once there’s an update.
