How much is Spotify Premium in the US?

Everything is better without ads ruining the vibe, and your perfect playlist deserves to play on uninterrupted. Don’t believe us? As of December 2023, Spotify had more than 230 million Premium subscribers enjoying ad-free songs, podcasts, and audiobooks. Here’s how each of the platform’s Premium plans break down.

What do I get with a free Spotify account?You’ll have access to Spotify’s music library, but you’ll have to listen to ads and won’t be able to download music to your phone for times when you don’t have W-Fi access (like on planes).

What do I get with a Spotify Premium plan?If you want an ad-free and offline listening experience, Premium is the way to go. You’ll get ad-free access to Spotify’s entire music library and be able to download music and podcasts to your device. Plus, you have the option to bump up the quality of your audio, play songs in any order, and create a listening queue, none of which are available on Spotify’s free plan.

What are Spotify’s Premium plan options?Premium Individual (Two months free, then $10.99/month): This plan is for one person and includes all the Premium features.

Premium Student (One month free, then $5.99/month): Students at an accredited higher education institution can get 50% off all Premium features for up to 4 years, in addition to access to Hulu’s ad-supported plan at no extra cost (a $1.99/ month value for students).

Premium Duo ($14.99/month): Two people can each get their own Premium account with Premium Duo. Spotify stipulates that these two people must be living together but, since there’s no way for them to know that, you could probably split this plan with a bestie or sibling. You’ll also get 15 hours of audiobooks listening time per month.

Premium Family ($16.99/ month): This plan offers a discounted rate for families of up to six, and each member gets their own account. One family member, the “plan manager,” pays for the plan, manages members, and can set explicit content filters for members.

This plan is great for parents who want to ensure that their little ones aren’t listening to explicit material, or parents who want to give their child their own account in the Spotify Kids app. On the Premium Family plan, only the plan managers get 15 hours of audiobook listening time per month.
