Distributors handle music distribution and pay streaming royalties.

Work with a distributor to get your music on Spotify.

# Choose a distributor

See our preferred and recommended distributors: https://artists.spotify.com/providers

These distributors meet our highest standards for quality metadata and anti-infringement measures.

Note: Most distributors charge a fee or commission. Each service is unique, so do a little research before picking one.

If you’re a signed artist, your record label likely already works with a distributor who can deliver your music.
