Spotify may soon ask some Premium subscribers to pay $5 more each month for a new service. That is the report from Android Authority. The company has not confirmed any details, so this is still a rumor and not an official plan.
What is reported
The extra $5 would sit on top of the current Premium price. It would be a new add-on, not a simple price hike for everyone. People who do not want the new service would presumably stay on their current plan, though the material does not say this outright.
Who it affects
Anyone who pays for Spotify Premium could be touched by this. If the add-on becomes real, your monthly bill could rise, but only if you choose to upgrade. Families and small businesses that pay for several accounts may want to watch the price closely.
What is not known yet
- What the new service actually does
- When it might launch
- Whether the price is the same in every country
- Whether current subscribers get any special offer
What to do
Nothing needs to change today. Your plan and price are the same until Spotify says otherwise. When an official announcement arrives, read what the new service offers before you agree to upgrade. Ask whether it is worth $5 more a month to you.
The takeawaySpotify has not confirmed the reported $5 add-on, so keep your current plan and check what it offers before you pay more.
