Spotify is going all in on books in 2026, partnering with Bookshop.org to let you buy physical copies of audiobooks and supporting local retailers starting in the spring. The announcement comes 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 in the US and UK later this year, there will be a button at the bottom of the audiobook pages prompting you to “get a copy for your library”. This process will take you from the Spotify app to complete your purchase on Bookshop.org, which will take 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, saying that “Spotify brings more readers and I’m all for anything that increases the size of the pie.”
