If you would like to claim your podcast’s ownership on platforms such as Spotify or Podchaser, you will need to make sure that the email address in your RSS feed is your own and not the default one, feeds@spreaker.com.
That’s because those distribution platforms might send you a verification link or a token to your personal email address in order to verify your identity.
You can change the email address associated with your RSS feed on the podcast's basic info section, while editing it on the CMS:
Select your podcast by clicking on View&Edit
On the left menu click on Podcast settings
Replace feeds@spreaker.com with your personal email address at the bottom of the page and click on Save.
Finally, here is where you should head to claim your podcast on some of the main distribution platforms.
Spotify:
If you have already submitted your podcast from Spreaker’s distribution page but you would like to get access to detailed analytics about Spotify’s audience, you will want to start the claiming procedure from Spotify for Podcasters.
To get access, you need to log in with your Spotify account, or choose “Sign up” to create one. Then, follow these steps:
Open the side menu by clicking the three dots in the top-left.
Click on “Add or Claim podcast”.
Click GET STARTED.
Paste in the link to your Spreaker RSS feed.
Wait for a verification email to the address in your RSS feed. Copy the 8-digit code from that email and paste in the submit form.
Add podcast info like the category, language, and country.
Review the details and submit.
Apple Podcasts:
If you need to move a podcast between two Apple Podcast Connect accounts, you can use the Apple Claim Token method described below.
Follow Apple’s instructions to initiate an ownership claim for an existing show within your Apple Podcast Connect account.
Log in to your Spreaker account within seven days of generating the token (before it expires).
From the Spreaker CMS Dashboard, select the podcast you wish to transfer, navigate to RSS settings, and paste your token into the Apple Podcasts claim token field.
Once saved, the token is added to your RSS feed. Apple typically verifies this and completes the transfer to your new account within 24 hours.
Podchaser:
If your podcast is already on Podchaser, you can claim it with your user account by visiting this page and clicking the "claim" button. You would have to create a new account with them if you don’t have one already!
