Hey @victor63, welcome to the community. 

Hope you’re doing great!

You don’t need a SSN to purchase Premium with Spotify. 

You can easily subscribe to Premium here: https://www.spotify.com/premium/

You can also learn more about Premium here:  https://support.spotify.com/account_payment_help/subscription_information/spotify-premium/ . 

Happy listening 🙂

Hey @crsk, thanks for your post!

You do not need a Social Security Number to sign up for Spotify Premium. You can learn more and subscribe to Premium here.

Hope this helps!

We know the page to sign up for premium, but it requires the social security number. If we try to move on with the payment without this number, it doesn't go through. We don't have this number in Brazil? What are we supposed to do? I wanted to sign up for premium too but now honestly not anymore

Find the specific url, in my case from Chile it is https://www.spotify.com/cl/premium/

Hey folks,

Apologies for the confusion.

The number you need to put in is your CPF (Cadastro de Pessoas Físicas). If the payment is not going through after entering the correct number, check out the Brazilian version of this article for more troubleshooting steps.

We hope this helps.

OK, so there's two issues:

1. CPF is wrongly translated as Social Security Number.
2. Some people don’t have a CPF, like me (a tourist in Brazil).

For those who don’t have a CPF, instead of asking the government to give you one or using a random one to proceed with payment, you can just Google to find the payment link for your country. That’s how I solved it.

Se você é do Brasil, so usar o CPF.

Por que eu nao consigo pagar o meu plano indidual que uso no Brazil? Está pedindo numero de segurança social, nao existe isso no Brazil, e porque eu estou viajando tenho que colocar? O que é isso?
