Spotify is partnering with Bookshop.org to sell physical books

Spotify is going all-in on books in 2026 and partnering with Bookshop.org to let you buy physical copies of audiobooks and support local retailers starting this spring. The announcement coincides with the launch of Page Match, a new feature that lets you sync physical books and e-books with audiobooks in the Spotify app using your camera.

When the partnership launches later this year in the US and UK, there will be a button at the bottom of the pages for audiobooks, inviting you to “get a copy for your library.” The process will take you out of the Spotify app to complete the purchase on Bookshop.org, taking you directly to the checkout page.

At an event announcing the partnership, Bookshop.org founder and CEO Andy Hunter spoke about the importance of reading, stating that “Spotify attracts more readers and I’m in favor of anything that increases the size of the pie.” »
