Spotify has officially begun notifying its Premium subscribers of an upcoming price adjustment. Starting with the February billing cycle, the cost of a standard Premium monthly subscription will increase from $11.99 to $12.99. According to the official communication, the price update is intended to help the company continue delivering a high-quality audio experience. The core features of the Premium plan—such as ad-free listening, offline downloads, and on-demand playback—remain unchanged.
For many long-term users, this change may prompt a review of their monthly digital subscriptions. Spotify has made it clear that those who do not wish to continue at the new price point have the option to cancel their subscription through their account page before their February billing date. Alternatively, the platform suggests users explore other available plans, such as Duo or Family tiers, which may offer better value for certain households.
The streaming landscape is becoming increasingly competitive, and price hikes are becoming a regular occurrence across music and video platforms alike. As Spotify adjusts its rates, it remains focused on maintaining its position as the market leader by offering personalized playlists and a massive library of podcasts.
