Overview
- Listed rates now show Premium Individual at €12.99, Student at €6.99, Duo at €17.99, and Family at €21.99, with new customers paying immediately and existing users moving to the new prices in November after confirming.
- Spotify is asking existing subscribers to accept the changes by October 14, with accounts reverting to the free tier if consent is not given.
- Some existing customers can switch once to a Basic plan that keeps the old prices (€10.99 Individual, €14.99 Duo, €17.99 Family) but removes the audiobook hours, and this option excludes students, limits changes to the Family manager, and is not available to new sign-ups.
- Premium now includes 12 hours per month from Spotify’s included audiobook catalog, which the company positions as the core addition tied to the higher subscription cost.
- For those leaving, third‑party transfer tools like Soundiiz, TuneMyMusic, Free Your Music, and SongShift can migrate libraries, though free tiers cap playlist sizes, some Spotify‑owned playlists cannot move, and catalog gaps can leave tracks behind.
