Spotify offers both free and Premium tiers, including Individual, Duo, Family, and Student plans. If you want to end your Premium subscription and switch back to Spotify Free, the exact steps depend on how you pay for your subscription.

If your account is billed directly by Spotify, you can cancel in a web browser or in the Spotify mobile app. If you’re billed through third parties such as the Apple App Store or Google Play, you’ll need to manage and cancel your subscription directly in Apple or Google settings.

⚠️ What Happens When You Cancel Premium?

Before canceling your Spotify Premium, here’re several points you may need to note:

• Paid Subscriptions: Your account remains on Premium until the end of your current billing cycle. After that date, it automatically switches to Spotify Free.
• Free Trials: If you cancel during a Premium free trial, your account will revert to Spotify Free immediately.
• Your Library: You will not lose your saved playlists, liked songs, or account history. However, offline downloads will no longer be available.

1. Go to spotify.com/account in any browser and log in.
2. Click your Premium plan at the top.

How to delete a Spotify account?

Note: If you only want to stop paying for Premium, you do not need to delete your account. Canceling Premium automatically downgrades you to a free account. Proceed below only if you want to permanently delete your data and account history.

Go to the Spotify close account page in your browser:

If you have Spotify Free:

• Check the Account Deletion Acknowledgment, click “Continue deleting account,” and follow the steps.

If you have Spotify Premium:

• You have the option to switch to Spotify Free or delete your account and data directly.
• Select “Delete your account and data” and follow the steps.

Spotify will send a confirmation link to your registered email address. Click Close My Account within 7 days to complete the deletion.
