Honestly, most money for artists on Spotify comes from streams and then getting noticed by new fans who might buy tickets and merch later. It's a good starting point!
Here's the scoop: Spotify pays artists via royalties that come from ad revenue and subscription fees. More streams, more moolah!
Spotify pays artists based on their share of total streams. So, the more your song gets played, the more cash flows in!
Hot take: For small artists, Spotify money isn't huge. They might need to use Spotify to boost their exposure instead.
