Currently, the student discount is set up to be available for 4 years per person. This is a hard and fast rule that does not include gradute or doctoral students.   Moving forward, Spotify needs to rewrite their policy to be available for this large population of students! This way they can continue using a platform that they know and love while still getting the student discount that they so desperately need. Higher education is expensive, and being able to save money wherever possible is essential. These students deserve the same student discount as undergraduates.  If you're a graduate student, doctoral student, or soon to be either one, hit the like button to make this dream a reality! 100 votes and it'll get passed on for review!  ...

There are a lot student in Malaysia that uses Spotify and some are like me, we are students and the only one who uses Spotify in our family but still doesn't want to pay the basic premium. There is Premium Student offered in certain countries yet to offer in Malaysia. Looking forward for it to be available here. ... View more

As some of you know, Spotify allows a discounted Premium Students plan for some countries, where Students from the academy are able to identify as students online, and receive a discount for Spotify Premium. Each year more countries are added to the Premium Students plan. This idea is about bringing Premium Students to Spotify Israel as well.   It has been suggested before and did not pass, but that was over 2 years ago, when Spotify was not as popular in Israel. I think that Students should enjoy a discount wherever they are, without a limitation to a country, but let's start small and bring Premium Students to Israel, as students like myself are struggling paying for the education and the academic year, along with the essentials of rent, food and transportation. ...

Hi everyone, I am currently a Student at Penn State University in a five year architecture program. I have contacted Spotify and Sheer ID multiple times to see if I can be able to extend my Student Membership into my fifth year at University. Unfortunately, Spotify does not allow any further renewals over four year. I am outraged. I am still a student and should be allowed to obtain a student discounted membership. I know there are a lot of people out there doing five year programs, continuing masters after bachelors, or maybe need to take a year or two extra to finish their studies. All of these people should be allowed an opportunity to verify their fifth or maybe six years of education to obtain a discount. College programs and educations do not always take four years to obtain.  ... View more

I want to subscribe to an annual family plan and make one annual payment like I can with Amazon music.  With Amazon music I can do one family plan with one annual payment and when you choose the annual payment you get a discount for the 12 months.  I want Spotify to provide us with this option so I will not forced to give Amazon Music my business. ...

It looks like a similar idea has been brought up, but they talk about family plans and student discounts and it's in the closed ideas. All I'm asking for is a yearly subscription that is slightly discounted like Spotify did last year. I think it would be such a great benefit and would be  very convenient, not only money wise but budgeting wise. It's nice to not have to worry about paying every month. I know a LOT of people who would be very interested in this! ... View more

Hey everybody, thanks for taking the time to view this idea.   My proposal is that Spotify continues to offer the reduced rate to graduates still paying off their student loans. Currently, the monthly rate increases from $5/mo to $10/mo upon graduation. This could be verified just as easily as the current student verification process.   Transitioning into the real world is a challenging time while we are taking on the responsibilities of paying for insurance, moving into our own apartment, covering transportation and sustaining some sort of a social life. Even with scholarships, our youth are graduating with anywhere from $50,000-$200,000 in student loans with a ludicrous interest rate of 10% which they will be paying nearly 50% of their salary every month for 10 years.    I am completely in love with Spotify, the playlists they provide for me and their awesome access to new music. I am impressed with all of the progress the company has made, their user interface and customer service. However this is a time in my life where I have to cut back on non-essential expenses. $5/mo for something I love is understandable but double that is difficult to rationalize. I know that there are thousands of people out there just like me that would genuinely appreciate the student rate after graduation. This would also be tremendous publicity for Spotify, if they show that they empathize with this group of hardworking individuals.   So please, let's come together and make this idea a reality. The first step is for 100 votes on this idea and we will take it higher and higher until we accomplish this goal!     ... View more

Spotify Duo is a great subscription option.  But it's not better than the beloved 'Spotify Premium with Hulu Combo' which is still active (thus far) for members who subscribed when it was available for $9.99.  I mean, We. love. this. deal! (Presently, only available for Student accounts as Spotify/Hulu/Showtime for $4.99)   I also believe that all existing Spotify Premium/Hulu subscribers (and tons of new subscribers) would be glad to pay more for Spotify Duo if it offered another Pricing Tier, ~$14.99/$15.99, for the option to upgrade our Spotify/Hulu plans to a SpotifyDuo/Hulu plan.   Without this option we would never switch to Duo and drop our Hulu attached account. It's a deal-breaker!  My bill would go from 9.99 for both to 12.99(Duo) + 5.99/11.99(Hulu separate) ~ $19/25 ! No bueno.   Please consider this idea. There is a reason the original idea was so successful.  Visual media adds huge value to a premium music subscription and we will happily pay for it.  Apple Music has Apple TV.  YouTube has YouTube  Music.    To compete and stay relevant I believe Spotify must offer a visual medium like Hulu to all, again. And with Duo it would be perfect for couples, siblings, parent/child, roommate pairs, etc. Why? -We like to watch shows & movies together but music preferences are much more specific and personal. Plus, what service offers dual music right? Spotify Duo is a great idea.  Spotify Duo WITH Hulu is a better one.  ......   Me/GF, & every other duo: Oooo Spotify Duo! This is perfect for us! Let's get it! Spotify: Yeah, no, you have to drop Hulu and go get it separately if you still want it. Everyone: No Hulu option? Ooh, yeah, thats not gonna work. We'll deal with a few songs and playlists we don't like for the $9.99, thanks.  Good idea tho with Duo and all.  Good luck with that!  Spotify: hmm. We should probably cut Hulu from these ppl. Then they'll join Duo. No choice!  Everyone: Hey, Apple Music/TV, wassup!? ... View more

Spotify is great, I use it every day and night. And so do my family members some through their own invitation to my family account, and my daughter uses it through my login because she is underage and is not allowed to have her own account on Spotify technically. Which is quite annoying because music is for everyone to love and enjoy really and my daughter loves music and Spotify particularly so I let her use my devices to listen to music through the app. The problem is when I do this my daughter's taste in music and selections including likes and playlist adds are all added to my account, influencing my daily mixes, algorithms, release radar, playlists etc. Wouldnt it be great to have the option to select another user under your account, or have kids mode, whereby they could have their own sub-profile with their own library and playlists/likes stored and managed by a parent or guardian and content including all access and permissions controlled by the parent or guardian and main account holder. This would then allow the KIDS MODE and childs activity to not only be monitored and made safe as desired by each parent and filtered by words, artists, songs etc but it would allow the child's listening activity on Spotify to not affect the main account holders algorithms and daily mixes etc. It would also give the children a sense of responsibility and maturity having control of their own music hub and control centre and teach them from a young age the skills of organisation, spelling, music, priority, neatness, memory, timing, management and just a general sense of self care and management of something of their own. I have a daughter who craves music each day, nieces and nephews that beg me to set up Spotify for them, but I refuse to do it illegally because that's not how it deserves to be done for both the kids and for Spotify. They both deserve to join forces and unite for once and for all. Whether they are accepted on family plans, or selected as a kids mode user under main login user it would be great to see. @DJ-MastaJ  ... View more

Our Company would like to request a "Spotify for Company Employees" subscription option.   More and more of our employees use Spotify at work to listen to songs at their workstation during their workday.   As supporters of this, our Company wants to easily be able to order and pay for Premium subscriptions in bulk, at an agreed upon Corporate rate, so as to easily offer a Premium Spotify account as a benefit/perk to all of our Company's employees.   Spotify for Company Employees would work like Spotify for Families does - just with a large number of family members.   A single admin or "parent" account (owned by the Company) would control a section within their Account profile that easily allows employees to be added to the list (as new employees join the Company) or removed from the list (when employees move on from our Company to another opportunity).   We believe that listening to music at work is very beneficial for our employees, and improves and promotes a positive company culture.   We sincerely hope this subscription option becomes available in the near future and eagerly await any updates on this matter. ...

So I got a Spotify gift card from my friend. I am already on a Family Premium plan and so when I try to redeem the gift care, it tells me that I cannot.   Why? Gift cards are supposed to be used for anything related to a service. Why can't I use the gift card to pay for my subscription?   This feels so dishonest and strange for a company to not honor their gift cards in such a strange way. ... View more

Hi spotify!   I'm a medical student studying in Dubai, UAE! I used to be a consistent apple music subscriber, making the most of the student plan they have set up, until Spotify became available in the UAE. I was hoping you guys could set up something similar for us struggling kids! The plan is currently 20 AED, which is a whole 10-15 Dhs more than other apps are offering. A lot of students here prefer your app over all the rest, the price is what stops them dead in tracks. Like you say, no one wants to listen to music with ads, especially since we're always doing so while studying. Help us out please 😞     When I finally become a doctor I'll give ya'll free medical help! 😉 ... View more

Although there is a student discount for college and university students already available through Spotify Premium, it is dismissed after a maximum of 4 years. I think there should be an extended option for graduate students. Most graduate students do not have full time jobs and every penny saved is helpful and important to us. It would be greatly appreicated among my peers and friends since we enjoy listening to Spotify Premium while we study. ... View more

The crypto community is growing bigger and Spotify could be one of the first and leading platforms in implementing this revolutionary technology for an open, fair and accessible financial system. Millenials are one of the largest groups invested in cryptos, same as those leading the Spotify revolution. With an estimated amount of 6-10 billion dollars that have been invested in this new technology, Spotify could benefit from adopting it through Request Network. ... View more

Greetings Spotify Community,   I'm posting to raise votes for public service employee*  I beleive that anyone who provides a service to the public should be offerred rewards. We scarfice our time and pay for the greater good, and it would be greatly appreciated if we could receive a perk  for discounted music from Spotify.    We support, educate , and protect our communities. We are needed in this world, and without us our local communictes would be in dispair.     Please suppor this idea and provide a thumbs up if you too believe public service workers should receive discounts as much as students.   I'm speaking for the police officer, fire fighters, mailmen and mailwoman, educators, social workers, military......    Thank You, -------graces---------- ...
