Steps to cancel Spotify Premium

The process for cancelling your subscription depends on who bills you: Spotify directly or a third party, such as Apple or Google Play. Spotify Premium always automatically downgrades to the free plan after cancellation, so you won’t lose your account.

Cancelling Premium directly on Spotify

If you’ve started your subscription on Spotify itself, you’ll need to cancel it there, too. To do so:

Go to your account page.
Navigate to Your plan or Manage your plan at the top of the screen.
Select Cancel plan.
Follow the prompts until you reach the confirmation message.

Your Premium features will remain available to you until the end of your current billing cycle. If you’re cancelling during a free trial period, your account will revert to Free immediately after cancellation.

Cancelling Spotify Premium if you’re being billed by a third party

If you’ve started your subscription via the Apple Store or Google Play Store, or if you got it as part of an entertainment package with your mobile service provider, you won’t see the option to cancel your plan within your account page. In this case, you’ll need to cancel your subscription with the party that bills you.

Cancelling Spotify Premium through Apple

You’ll need to use this method if you subscribed to Premium via the App Store.

Open Settings on your iPhone.
Tap your Apple ID and navigate to Subscriptions.
Select Spotify.
Tap Cancel Subscription.

Cancelling Spotify Premium through Google Play

Open the Google Play Store.
Tap your profile icon and navigate to Payments & subscriptions.
Go to Subscriptions.
Select Spotify, and then Cancel subscription.

Cancelling Spotify Premium through your mobile operator

Some mobile operators (e.g., Vodafone) offer Entertainment packages, which may include a Spotify Premium subscription. If you’d like to cancel your Entertainment package (and Premium plan), you’ll need to contact your mobile operator’s Customer Service.

What to know before you cancel

Keep this in mind when considering cancelling your Premium plan:

You won’t lose access immediately. You can keep enjoying Premium until the end of your paid period. One exception is free trials – if you cancel yours, your account will immediately revert to Free.
Your playlists and likes will remain on your account even if you cancel.
Tracks you’ve downloaded to listen to offline will no longer be available.
You won’t be refunded mid-month, as Spotify charges at the start of each cycle.
Deleting your Spotify app will not cancel your plan. You’ll need to follow the steps outlined in this article to make sure you don’t continue to be charged.

Some extra tips to save you money

Before you take the big step of cancelling your subscription, consider these helpful tips.

Cancel before your next billing date

Spotify bills upfront. Cancelling even 1 day late means another full month of charges. To avoid that, time your cancellation well.

If you’re on a free trial, don’t cancel too soon

If you cancel your free trial too much in advance, you’ll miss out on Premium features, as your account will immediately switch to Free. So, in case of free trials, you can allow yourself to wait with cancellation until the last minute.

Avoid recurring costs with a gift card

If you want to have Premium only sometimes, without committing to recurring monthly costs, a Spotify gift card can be a good option. With it, you prepay for a specific period of your subscription, and when that period expires, your account reverts to Free. This allows you to technically pause your subscription when you need to, without having to go through the hassle of cancelling and restarting every time.

Cancelling is easy (and so is coming back)

Cancelling Spotify Premium is simple once you know where your subscription is billed. Whether you subscribed directly on Spotify or through Apple, Google Play, or your mobile provider, you can cancel in minutes. You’ll keep your playlists and account while returning to Spotify’s free plan at the end of your billing period. Stay close for more useful tips to help you manage your subscription costs.
