Can I purchase premium in Japan if I am using an American account? If yes, how?

Can I purchase premium in Japan if I am using an American account? If yes, how?

I recently moved to Japan and would like to upgrade to premium. I know Spotify isn't supported in Japan, but I also know that when you have premium you can use it anyhwere (including, of course, Japan!). I have a friend who had premium in the States and when he came here he was still able to use his Spotify Premium. Whenever I try to upgrade it says that Spotify is not supported in my country... Since I have an American bank account, is there any way for me to successfully purchase premium with that?

 

Thanks for any help!

Hey emrutowski!

 

Welcome to the Spotify Community, we're all here to help each other.

 

We'd like to explain this better. In order to subscribe to Premium, the IP address you're connecting from has to match your account's country settings and payment method. Since Spotify is not available in Japan yet, you won't be able to use the service.

 

No worries! We're launching regularly in new countries around the world. Make sure you sign up here to be first to hear when it's available in Japan.

 

Take care 🙂
