Spotify price history in the US

Every Spotify price increase we found

Newest first. "Old price last seen" and "new price first seen" are the dates of the two archived captures either side of the change, so the change happened somewhere between them. Follow the links to see each capture.

Price by plan, period by period

Plans added, renamed or removed

• Duo first listed, at $12.99 a month: between Jun 27, 2020 and Jul 1, 2020.

These dates come from archived captures, so they show when a change was first visible, not an official launch date.

What these dates mean

Spotify doesn't publish a dated list of its price changes. The dates here come from the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine, which saves copies of public web pages from time to time. For each change we found the last saved copy of a Spotify US plan page showing the old price and the first showing the new one; the change happened between those two dates.

The prices are what Spotify showed new US subscribers after any free trial, per month, before tax. Spotify's support page explains that existing subscribers are "given a one-month grace period before the new price becomes effective", so current members moved to each new price about a month or more after these dates.

Before 2023 the archived pages we used were saved less often, sometimes months apart. The price was the same on both sides of each of those gaps, so no change is hidden in them, but the earliest dates only show when a capture exists, not when the price started.

What to do when the price goes up

• See what the increase costs you over a year with the subscription price increase calculator.
• If two or more people at one address pay separately, Duo or Family is usually much cheaper; the shared plan calculator shows each person's share.
• Compare Spotify with Apple Music and the Apple One bundle on our streaming prices page.
• Keep a note of what you pay and when it renews in the free subscription tracker.

Other histories: Netflix and Disney+. Prices in the UK, Canada and Australia are on the local streaming prices page.
