Move to Podhome
Move from
Anchor.
Leaving Spotify for Creators is an import into Podhome, then a 301 redirect you set on the Spotify website. Podhome does not delete the Spotify show. Wait before you close that account.

Import.
Then redirect.
Podhome copies the show. Spotify for Creators keeps its copy. Listeners follow the old feed until you set a redirect there. The click-by-click version for every host is the move guide.
1. Import into Podhome
- Sign up. The trial is 30 days of the same $15.99 plan. Checkout is on the pricing page.
- Choose import, search the podcast name, or paste the RSS feed. If the feed is locked, unlock it at Spotify for Creators first. If the feed contains an email address, Podhome sends a message to confirm you own the show.
- Podhome copies audio, artwork, and Podcasting 2.0 data present in the feed, and keeps existing show and episode GUIDs when they are present. Nothing is deleted at Spotify for Creators.
- Wait for the email from support@podhome.fm, then check episodes and show settings before you redirect.
2. Redirect at Spotify for Creators
Turn the RSS feed on before you import, if it is off. In Spotify for Creators that control is under Settings, then Availability, then RSS distribution. Spotify says the email address in the feed becomes public.
The redirect is on the website, not in the Spotify for Creators mobile app. Log in at creators.spotify.com, open Settings, find Redirect your podcast, paste the Podhome RSS URL, and choose Redirect. If you use Spotify subscriptions, Spotify says to disable them from the Monetize tab.
Spotify says the redirect can take up to 7 days, and recommends waiting at least a week before you delete the Spotify for Creators account. Delete it only after the redirect is in place. If the account was deleted first, Spotify’s article says to contact Spotify. Podhome’s own guide still says to wait about two weeks before cancelling any old host.
Podhome’s move guide also notes that a show which used Anchor’s automatic distribution may need a fresh look in Apple Podcasts Connect, because the email on file can be an Anchor address. After the redirect, open Apple Podcasts Connect and refresh the show.
- Copy the Podhome RSS URL from the dashboard or the Distribution page. It looks like https://serve.podhome.fm/rss/ followed by your show id.
- Paste that URL into the redirect setting at Spotify for Creators. Apps and directories then follow the new feed. They do not need a new subscription.
- Optional: in Apple Podcasts Connect, refresh the show. A small edit to the description can prompt directories to fetch again.
- Wait about two weeks before you cancel Spotify for Creators, so the redirect has time to propagate. Questions go to support@podhome.fm.

Questions, answered
While the
feed moves.
Does Podhome delete my Spotify for Creators show?
No. Import copies the feed. The show stays at Spotify until you redirect it and, later, close the account yourself.
Where is the Spotify redirect?
On the web, at creators.spotify.com, under Settings, Redirect your podcast. Spotify says the mobile app cannot set it. Paste the Podhome RSS URL from your dashboard or Distribution page.
The import cannot find my episodes.
Enable RSS distribution in Spotify settings and publish at least one episode so the feed exists. Then paste that feed into Podhome. A locked feed has to be unlocked first.
When can I delete the Spotify account?
After the redirect has had time to work. Spotify says up to 7 days, and suggests at least a week. Podhome’s guide says about two weeks before you cancel an old host. Keep the account until listeners are arriving through the new feed.
Do I have to resubmit to Apple Podcasts?
Often the redirect is enough. Podhome’s move guide says a show that used Anchor’s automatic distribution may need a new submission, because Apple can have an Anchor email on file. Refresh the show in Apple Podcasts Connect and watch the apps.
