Bid towards your goals

You can keep an eye on ad performance and make adjustments as you test different strategies, targeting, and ad creatives. Spotify’s ad platform will aim to deliver your campaign towards the goal you choose:

If reach is your goal, we try to deliver your ads to as many unique listeners as possible. This can help get your products, services, or brand discovered.

If impression delivery is your goal, we try to deliver your ads as many times as possible. This can help keep your brand top of mind and motivate your audience to take action.

Pricing on programmatic

Advertisers working with DSPs can access Spotify inventory through Private Marketplaces (PMPs) or Programmatic Guaranteed (PG) buys. PMPs rely on an auction-based model allowing for dynamic bidding with a set floor price. PG campaigns are set at a fixed-rate, which you can determine with your Spotify representative in advance of a campaign launch.
