Spotify offers both free and premium subscription tiers. The free version allows you to enjoy music without entering a payment method. However, if you subscribe to Spotify Premium, you’ll need a payment method on your account.

Here’s the key point to remember: you can’t update your payment method directly through the Spotify mobile or desktop app. You’ll need to use a web browser on your computer or mobile device. If you signed up for Spotify through a third-party partner, you may need to update your payment method through them, such as the Google Play Store or the Apple Store.

When you update the payment method on Spotify, changes will take effect from your next billing date. Now let’s look at how to change your payment method on the Spotify website and Google Play Store.

How to download Spotify songs without a Premium?
