Spotify for Podcasters combines the experiences of Spotify’s podcasting suite all in one place. How you use Spotify for Podcasters depends on whether your podcast is hosted with Spotify (formerly Anchor) or hosted on another platform.
- If your podcast is hosted with Spotify (formerly Anchor), check out the section below called Hosted with Spotify.
- If your podcast is hosted with Megaphone, refer to the section below titled Hosted with Megaphone.
- If your podcast is hosted elsewhere, check out the section below called Hosted somewhere else.
If you’re not sure which login option to choose, remember that your hosting service is where you upload your files to get distributed to Spotify. If you upload your files using a platform like Buzzsprout or Libsyn, head to the Hosted somewhere else section - your podcast is distributed to Spotify, but not hosted with Spotify.
Hosted with Spotify
Log in at http://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/login
If you created your account with a Spotify account, log in with your Spotify account credentials. If you don’t have a Spotify account, or want to create a new one, you can do so here.

Hosting with Spotify offers you the ability to distribute your content to other platforms, ways to monetize your content, and access to all of our creation tools to help you make your show.

FAQ
Do I have to host with Spotify to use Spotify for Podcasters?
No! We offer experiences for creators that host elsewhere, and offer the ability for you to interact with your listeners on Spotify and check your analytics, with more features coming in the future.
What if I used Anchor? How do I log into my Spotify for Podcasters account?
If you previously used Anchor, log in at http://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/login using the same login credentials you used with Anchor.
Do I have to use a Spotify account to use Spotify for Podcasters?
You’ll need to use a Spotify account in order to use Spotify for Podcasters. You can do this at http://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/login. If you previously used Anchor, you can continue to log into your Hosted with Spotify account using your existing Anchor login credentials.
I have multiple podcasts hosted with Spotify for Podcasters. How do I access all of them in one place?
Previously, hosting podcasts with Spotify (formerly Anchor) required you to maintain separate login credentials for each podcast.
If you used a Spotify account to create your Hosted with Spotify account with Spotify for Podcasters, you can make a new podcast under your existing Spotify for Podcasters account. You can switch back and forth between your different shows and create new ones. This isn’t available for shows that use non-Spotify account login credentials.

For podcasts hosted with Spotify:
- If you created your account using a Spotify account, you can create multiple podcasts under one account.
