Spotify is the world’s biggest music streaming platform by number of subscribers. The platform has 299 million monthly active users in 92 markets and more than 60 million tracks. Spotify listeners can choose between a premium service and an ad-supported freemium service. Spotify can be used on smartphones, computers, tablets, in the car, on PlayStation®, TV, Android Wear or in the Spotify Web Player.
Once you upload your music to MusicDigi, it takes 2-4 days to appear on Spotify. Once your music is live on Spotify, you can claim your Spotify for Artists profile and have your songs included in popular Playlists.
Unlike physical or download sales, you earn royalties on Spotify whenever a consumer streams your song. Spotify pays a percentage of the monthly subscription or advertising revenue they receive from the advertiser or consumer. The percentage is based on many factors including how many streams your music received during that month, the location of the streamer and their subscription type (free or premium).
Spotify Windowing is an exclusive release feature that allows artists to release new albums on Spotify Premium for two weeks in advance of the official release date. This means that Spotify Premium subscribers will get to listen to the new release two weeks earlier than the free tier.
