My Question or Issue

Ever since I subscribe for a premium plan, I always select the annual plan because aside from lesser hassle in paying monthly, I can also save money as the annual payment is 2 months free compared to the monthly plan.

Now that there is no more option for the annual payment, I do not like the idea of letting my payment option - for example card, to be automatically deducted monthly, just so I can use the service. Plus there is no more advantage of getting a free 2-months of enjoying music.

Plus the subscription costs really jacked up from Php 129 monthly to Php 149 monthly, and to now that it is Php 169 monthly in a short period of time. Compared to annual plan, I pay only Php 1290 or Php 1490 (for the last two years) yearly.

Now Spotify has removed that hassle-free payment option and benefit. And it is such a waste. Only monthly payments are available, whatever type of subscription you prefer. It is saddening and such a hassle. Hope Spotify could reconsider putting the annual payment option again.

Hey @risuchin, thanks for reaching out to the Community!

I understand where you're coming from as I also like to pay annually if I can. I will make sure to pass your feedback on to the right folks at Spotify. The best way to go about this is purchasing a Spotify gift card for up to 18 months at a time at a leading electronics or retail store near you. There's more info on how gift cards work and how to redeem it here.

I hope this clears things up! Let me know if you have any more questions.

Same problem here. We need the Annual one time back. I don't want that hassle of paying monthly

Hey there folks,

I will share your feedback on to the right folks. Keep in mind that there are no annual plan options currently, and you're able to view all plan options on your Account page. I have posted my first reply that explains a workaround to avoid paying every month by the use of gift cards.

If you have any questions/need help with anything else, let me know.

Por favor, volte o pagamento antecipado de um ano para o plano família, mesmo que sem desconto. É muito melhor.
