Spotify Southeast Asia: Podcast Discovery Campaign Grows MAU by 22%
Spotify Southeast Asia
The Challenge
Spotify Southeast Asia wanted to grow podcast listener numbers among commuters who were already Spotify music users but had never discovered the podcast catalogue — a high-value conversion requiring awareness, not performance push.
The Solution
Transit OOH placements across Singapore MRT and KL LRT networks ran commuter-targeted podcast discovery creative, showing culturally relevant local podcast titles and hosts with a Spotify scan-to-listen QR code, timed to the captive commute moment.
The Results
"Commuters are the ideal podcast audience — they have 30–60 uninterrupted minutes every day. Showing them what they were missing on Spotify, in the exact moment they're looking for something to listen to, was the highest-intent OOH placement we've ever run."
