Overview
- New customer prices took effect on August 14, 2025, with monthly increases of €1 to €4 depending on the plan.
- Legacy subscribers were asked to confirm the updated price by October 14, with a short grace period into November before enforcement begins.
- Accounts that do not confirm will lapse into Spotify Free, which retains playlists but adds ads and removes offline playback.
- The Basic option preserves prior pricing for existing customers in exchange for losing included audiobook hours, and it cannot be re-subscribed to after cancellation.
- Spotify says the price update supports platform expansion and innovation under changing market conditions.
