Spotify Discovery Mode
Spotify Discovery Mode is a promotional tool that can help tracks reach more listeners in Radio and Autoplay sessions. If a track is enrolled, Spotify may prioritize it in situations where users are open to discovering new music.
In return, Spotify applies a reduced payout rate to streams generated through Discovery Mode. For tracks in this program, labels receive 30% less for Discovery Mode streams. All other Spotify streams outside the program are paid as usual, without this deduction.
Requirements
To be eligible for Discovery Mode, a track must:
- be at least 30 days old
- have received at least one Radio or Autoplay stream in the last 7 days
You can check this information in your Spotify for Artists account.
How to submit a track
If you would like to submit a track, please send us the Spotify URI using this form:
We review all submissions once per month.
How to remove a track
If you would like to remove a track from Discovery Mode, please contact us at labelrelations@digdis.de.
Good to know
Discovery Mode can help increase exposure, but it does not guarantee success. Whether it makes sense depends on the track, the existing momentum and your overall release strategy.
