⚡️Quick tip: How Midnight Burger doubled their Patreon earnings with a simple Spotify integration
By turning on one feature, the team behind the sci-fi audio drama Midnight Burger was able to 4X their usual growth rate. All they did was enable Spotify Synced Feeds, and their monthly Patreon earnings jumped from $13,000 to $21,500 in just two months.
“Since turning on Spotify [Synced Feeds], our earnings have increased by about 100% over the course of six months. Our growth rate before and after turning it on is like comparing night and day.” - Joe from Midnight Burger
And the best part? They didn’t change a thing about how they publish.
Show them what they’re missing
Syncing the feeds lets Midnight Burger’s member-only episodes show up right inside their public Spotify feed as locked episodes. That visibility helps non-members see what they’re missing and instantly upgrade.
“There was a mad rush to subscribe. That spike showed us there were tons of Spotify listeners who just didn’t know what we were offering on Patreon.”
Set yourself up for growth
Setting up Synced Feeds took just a few minutes. The result: thousands in new income and a better experience for fans already tuning in on Spotify.
“It's the biggest no-brainer on Patreon. It takes minutes to set up and costs you nothing. I can't think of any reason not to do it.”
For Midnight Burger, one little switch turned passive listeners into paying fans without changing anything about their work.
“Having exclusive content show up on the public feed was a great way for them to visualize what we had to offer. It made a huge difference.”

I'm thinking of joining Patreon as a creator and a YouTube integration would be really nice.
Any plans/possibility of a YouTube equivalent of this?
Is there a video equivalent of this for creators who AREN'T on Spotify?
I'd sure like to have that for YouTube
