14 DAY TRIAL // Spotify has just announced that free and first-time users are now being provided with a 3-month trial, up from a single month until now.
In other words, if you want to experience the benefits of Spotify Premium without paying, you can now try out the service for not one, not two, but three full months.
Spotify says that those who have previously been customers of Spotify Premium can also get a three-month subscription for just $9.99, so they have to pay less than $4 a month. Spotify typically charges $9.99 per month for access to Spotify Premium.
Three months free, then $9.99 per month for Premium
The three-month trial is available for users who have never paid Spotify Premium or canceled the Premium plan before July 15.
“If you’re a first-time subscriber, you’re eligible for three months of free Spotify Premium. That means unlimited skips, the ability to play any song you want, and no ads between songs,” Spotify explains.
“If you have already experienced the magic of Spotify Premium but canceled your account for some reason, you may be eligible for three months for just $9.99 (or your market equivalent). That means less than $4 a month for three months—just our little way of saying “welcome back!”
The offer is available for 135 markets where the Premium version of Spotify is currently live, and it runs through September 11. When the three months of trial come to an end, customers will have to pay the full price of $9.99 per month to continue to use Spotify Premium.
“These offers are available beginning today and through September 11. Once the three-month trial ends, your subscription will renew automatically at the regular monthly cost (unless you cancel before the trial period ends),” the company further notes in the announcement published this week.
