Ash and Kane talk about Spotify’s new partner programme. They give the lowdown on how the programme will work for monetisation, the thresholds they will put in place and how it compares to other platforms. They also share other ways you can monetise that may be more worthwhile.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • The creator will get 50% of the revenue for ads if they meet the listener threshold.
  • To access the programme, you will need at least 10k streamed hours on Spotify and 2k unique Spotify users a month. This is a much higher threshold than other platforms.
  • It’s easier to monetise on YouTube, you need half the amount and have a year to achieve it and also get paid more!
  • Direct sponsorships should make you way more money than something like this programme, this should be for supplementary income.
  • Spotify has also introduced a feed which will be great for discoverability.

BEST MOMENTS

“Creators get 50% of revenue for ads sold”

“YouTube is also significantly easier to become eligible needing 4000 streamed hours in the last year and 1000 subscribers”

“You’re getting maybe £10 CPM but you have to get ridiculous numbers to get there in the first place”

“One thing Spotify have introduced that is good is discoverability”

“Podcasters want two things, listeners and money”
