Question

Is there a way I can get Spotify premium for free?

Community Answer

There is no way to get Spotify Premium for free. All those websites claiming that they will generate codes for you if you download a .exe will typically end up with your computer getting malware.

Question

I already purchased Spotify Premium but it isn't showing up on my account, what should I do?

Community Answer

Check your subscription page -- your status should be Premium. If you're on Premium, try signing out and back into the app. If it says Free, check the receipt the company emailed you Make sure that you're signing in with the username on that receipt. If the username on your receipt is a 10-digit number, sign in with your Facebook login details. It is also possible that you have two accounts, so that's something to check further too. If this fails to help, contact the company.

You can buy a gift card and give it to the person as a gift. The person can then download Spotify, go to "My Account," and then click on "Go Premium." There should be an option to "Redeem Code" which can be found on the gift card.
