Hi! I have a quick question. When I "download" a song in my phone so it's available offline, do artists get paid still for each time I play the song as if it was online?

Hey @nikyg94

 

Yes, Spotify keeps track of your activity while offline. Next time you are online that informaiton is sent back to the Spotify server to keep track of plays.
