The What helps section under Settings, on the Verification tab, lists five things and whether each is done.
Phone number
A verified number on your account. Required to request at all.
Profile
A bio and an avatar. The profile is what we read first.
Channels
Spotify, Instagram, YouTube: the places the artist already is, so we can see the same artist there. Add your channels.
Spotify for Artists
Invite TAP as a Reader on your Spotify for Artists team.
- Open Teams on Spotify for Artists. Already signed in? It is Teams in the menu top right.
- Invite the address shown under Spotify for Artists on the Verification page.
That address ends in your handle and is yours alone. Use the exact one on the page, or we cannot tell which artist the invite is for. We join the team only to check that the artist is in it, and leave straight after.
We email every owner when the channel is verified; you can request TAP verification separately from the Verification tab.
Website
The artist's domain, verified with one DNS record: Prove the domain is yours.
Apps with access
An app that holds the artist, like the agency's booking software, connected to it.
None of them is the check
These make a check quick. Which of them the check rests on is ours to decide, and it can differ per artist.
