My Question or Issue

Hi! I want to use spotify in South Korea. But is too hard to get premiup from South Korea because Korean users can't get premium without paypal US account or US credit card. It is not available to get premium with Korea credit card even is available internationally like master card or visa card. It is not important that spotify officially support Korea but is there any plan to enable purchasing using non US paypal or credit card and downloading spotify app from Korea IP?

Hi there @user-removed,

thanks for reaching out to the community about this !

Spotify does not have immediate plans on launching the app in your country.

You can see the list of countries Spotify is available at and subscribe in order to get any updates on new launches around the world. 

In addition, there's an active idea regarding the implantation of Spotify in South Korea.

Make sure to add your +VOTE here to help promoting it.

Hope this helps.

Let me know if you have any further questions 🙂
