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 in the Spring. The announcement dovetails with the launch of Page Match, a new feature that lets you sync physical books and ebooks 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 pages for audiobooks, prompting you to “get a copy for your bookshelf.” The process will take you out of the Spotify app to complete the purchase on Bookshop.org, leading you directly to the checkout page.
At an event announcing the partnership, Bookshop.org founder and CEO Andy Hunter talked about the importance of reading, saying that “Spotify is bringing in more readers, and I’m all for anything that grows the size of the pie.”
