How to Claim Your Artist Profile on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube and More

Your music can be live on every store while your profiles still show no photo, no bio and no way for you to see who is listening. Claiming your artist profiles fixes that, and it only takes an afternoon. Do it as soon as your first release is delivered.
Before you start
- Use exactly the same artist name everywhere, including capitalisation and spacing.
- Have a square profile photo, a wide header image and a short bio ready.
- Have links to your website or social accounts; several platforms use them to verify you.
Spotify for Artists
Sign up at Spotify for Artists, search for your profile and request access. You can request access once your first release has been delivered to Spotify, even before release day. Once verified you can edit your bio and images, pitch unreleased songs to editors, add Canvas videos and see listener statistics. Our Spotify for Artists guide covers the tools in detail.
Apple Music per gli Artisti
Sign in with an Apple Account, search for your artist page and request access. Apple verifies you through your distributor or your linked accounts. You get listener data for Apple Music and Shazam, and you can update your artist image.
Amazon Music for Artists
Download the Amazon Music for Artists app or use the website, claim your profile and verify. You get streaming statistics and can update your profile image.
YouTube: Topic channel and Official Artist Channel
When your music is delivered to YouTube Music, YouTube creates an automatic "Topic" channel for your releases. If you also run your own YouTube channel, the two can be merged into an Official Artist Channel. That gives you one channel with a music note badge, your releases and your videos in one place, and subscribers from both.
To qualify, your channel must represent only you and have no policy strikes, and your Topic channel needs at least three official releases. YouTube only accepts these requests from a distributor or label. SpaceMedia users can request the connection as a paid, one-time service from the YouTube Artist Channel page in the dashboard, by entering their channel URL and their Topic channel URL. The two channel names must match exactly.
Deezer, TIDAL and others
- Deezer for Creators: claim your profile to update images and see audience statistics.
- TIDAL Artist Home: claim your profile to manage your page and see data.
- SoundCloud and Audiomack: if you also upload there directly, connect those accounts to the same artist name.
Fixing a profile that shows the wrong music
Artists with common names sometimes find someone else's song on their page, or their song on someone else's page. Do not try to fix this by uploading again. Contact your distributor with the release, the store and the correct profile link, and the release can be moved to the right page.
After you are verified
- Add the same bio and photo everywhere, so listeners recognise you.
- Check the statistics once a week: where listeners come from and which playlists add you.
- Keep your profile updated before every release, not after.

SpaceMedia distribuisce musica su una rete ampia e in continua evoluzione di piattaforme di streaming, download, social e identificazione musicale. Può includere servizi principali come Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Deezer, TikTok, Facebook e Instagram, SoundCloud, Tidal, Pandora, Boomplay, Anghami, iHeart, JioSaavn, KKBOX, NetEase Cloud Music, Tencent, Qobuz e altri partner supportati.
La rete esatta può cambiare man mano che le piattaforme aggiornano territori, regole e requisiti di consegna. SpaceMedia ti offre l'accesso ai canali di distribuzione supportati, ma nessun distributore può garantire che ogni piattaforma accetterà ogni rilascio in ogni paese.
Most major streaming services do not let every artist upload music directly. A distributor like SpaceMedia delivers your audio, artwork, metadata, and rights information to supported platforms so your release can appear on services such as Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Deezer, TikTok, and others.
Create an account, choose the plan that fits your needs, upload the final release files, review the details, and submit. SpaceMedia reviews Free submissions within 5 business days, Premium submissions within 2 business days, and Label submissions within 1 to 2 business days. Store publishing happens afterwards.
Puoi monetizzare musica idonea su piattaforme video supportate tramite Content ID quando il tuo piano lo include. Content ID è attualmente incluso con Premium e Unlimited, e non è incluso con il piano Free.
Invia solo musica che controlli completamente per Content ID. Tracce con campioni non autorizzati, beat non esclusivi, loop royalty-free usati da molti creatori, registrazioni di dominio pubblico o diritti controversi possono essere rifiutate o causare rivendicazioni che devono essere risolte.
Invia la tua release tramite SpaceMedia e scegli la distribuzione verso le piattaforme social musicali disponibili. Le release idonee possono essere consegnate a piattaforme come TikTok, Facebook, Instagram e altri servizi social o di musica in formato breve supportati.
Una volta consegnata, ogni piattaforma decide come appare la musica, quanto tempo richiede l'elaborazione e quali funzionalità sono disponibili in ogni territorio. Usa metadati accurati e audio pulito per ridurre problemi di consegna evitabili.
Independent music distribution lets artists release music to streaming, download, and social platforms without signing to a traditional record label. You stay in control of your music while using a distributor to deliver it to supported services.
With SpaceMedia, you can manage releases, artist details, earnings, and payout information from your account. All standard plans let users keep 100% of standard DSP royalties.
The Free plan lets artists release music without an upfront distribution fee and keep 100% of standard DSP royalties.
This gives new artists a way to start releasing music before paying for a yearly plan. Premium and Label add more primary-artist capacity and tools. All standard plans include 100% of standard DSP royalties.
Sì. In molti casi puoi trasferire uscite esistenti a SpaceMedia mantenendole live, a condizione che invii gli stessi metadati, audio, copertina, UPC e ISRC quando disponibili.
Tieni la vecchia release live finché la consegna SpaceMedia è live e abbinata correttamente. Rimuovere troppo presto la vecchia versione può interrompere la disponibilità o far considerare il trasferimento come una nuova release invece di abbinarlo a quella esistente.
