Tips & Things to Watch For

Third-Party Payment Methods May Prevent Cancellation

Critical

If you subscribed to Spotify Premium through Apple App Store, Google Play, or a telecom carrier, you must cancel through that platform, not through Spotify directly. Spotify's own cancellation process won't work, and you may continue being charged. Check 'Account' settings to see your payment method.

Student Premium Includes Full Audiobook Access

Pro Tip

Spotify Premium Student ($5.99/month in US) includes the same 15 hours of audiobook listening as the regular Premium plan ($10.99/month), effectively giving students 45% off audiobook access. Verification through SheerID is required but sometimes doesn't check enrollment status rigorously for international students.

Premium Individual Can Be Upgraded to Family Mid-Cycle

Pro Tip

You can upgrade from Individual to Family Premium at any time. Spotify pro-rates the difference in cost for the remaining days of your billing cycle. All existing individual benefits (including unused audiobook hours) transfer, and you immediately get Family plan benefits.
