Hello, I have a $10 Spotify Premium subscription right now, but I'd like to switch to a Student subscription. I went to https://www.spotify.com/us/student/. When I clicked "Get Premium", it took me to https://www.spotify.com/us/account/subscription/. How do I sign up for the discount!
Thanks for the help!
I have tried following the steps to get to the Student Plan, it takes me to the "Family Subscription" instead? I would like to action this ASAP or I will be taking my music needs back to Apple Music.
Hey @koolangel,
In it, it shows the Spotify username you paid for:
Username/ID: xxxxxxx
Logout of the app, and be sure to use it, instead of your email address, to login to your account. It's the one with the Premium features.
If you didn't get any email receipt, sometimes the amount gets 'on hold' even if the charge doesn't go through. Normally the amount gets back to your bank account a day or two later.
Hey @HGR123,
Are you in the US?
Try using this site to validate.
If it succeeds, when you log back in your Spotify account, and look under the subscription tab the price will change to $4.99 for your upcoming renewal date.
I'm eligible for student discount? I'm from Italy
hey Matt! My daughter is a college student who loves her Spotify! I want to buy her Spotify Premium for her birthday this week.... but I also want to get the student discount... how would I do that?
Hello @timlmartin,
As a gift, you could buy a giftcard for her to use in her account, but it will be at the regular price.
To get the student discount, the user (your daughter) needs to use this site to validate.
If it succeeds, when she logs back in her Spotify account, and look under the subscription tab the price will change to $4.99 for her upcoming renewal date.
Hope it helps. 🙂
I also had that same problem! I could not switch over from my 10/ month to the student discount. I had to not pay my bill to reactivate my account just to get the discount. I did not know what else to do, and could not figure out how to get the discount since it is not easy to find. I did tons of searching, but came out empty handed every time. My solution? Not pay my bill, let the service lapse, then go on the website and buy the service. For new people, student discount is right on the main Spotify home page. For existing users, it is near impossible to find the actual page to get the discount.
Thank you! Worked great!
Yes i am in the usa and have already completed that verification i even had the atudent discount. Now its 10 somthing and i keep hetting that same charge. My wifea was fixed easily but it seems not so much for my account.
