E-Card expiredate?

[VidarP]

So, I want to buy a friend a giftcard with Premium for 3 months for Christmas. How long does the code last before it expires? Can I buy it now and activate it the 24th or do I have to buy it the actual day?

Hey! Welcome to the community 🙂

eCards are valid for redemption up to 12 months after they are purchased. (FAQ Link)

I want to give a friend 1month premium,. Does the order run automatically for 12month (taking money from my account, that is)  Do I have to cancel the order myself after 1month?

It just runs for the time you buy it. And it's also no subscription trap, if you mean that. 1 time payment. 😉

Pay 1 month, he enjoys it 1 month, after that reverts back to whatever your friend had before.

Great, Thanx!

So, how do i know that my friend got the gift card, it does not say anything about that on the receipt?

Ive got a link to reedem the code and just cliced it and got this:

"The Premium code you entered has already been used"

And the code that is printed there is nowhere in my receipt that ive got from spotify?

why cant spotify just write on the receipt that the gift card has been sent to your friend. easy... ?

I have another problem, way back I got E-card for chrismtas but since I already did pay my unlimite every month I saw no use in it, howver I found today a song I waned to buy. The card should hold 100 SEK but it says it expired 08/12. I guess there is no way to use up the money by updating the card or something like that....?

We don't actually have a download store anymore, so I'm afraid you won't be able to purchase an individual track.

Regarding the card, please contact our payments team. They'll be able to look into it further.
