Spotify is one of the most popular music streaming platforms. Although there are a lot of alternatives to Spotify, the platform is preferred due to its large library, and its opportunities like podcasts, and more. While the music streaming platform offers a free subscription, it also offers a premium subscription. However, it is more difficult to cancel a Spotify subscription than create a subscription, like every other subscription-based service. If you’re trying to cancel your Spotify subscription, here is how to cancel a Spotify Premium.
Cancel Spotify subscription
If you like listening to music or podcasts, you may have already subscribed to Spotify. Since the platform gives a lot of opportunities and an easy interface, people usually prefer Spotify to other streaming platforms. Spotify offers a few Premium plans such as Family plan, Duo plan, and Single. However, you may want to cancel your subscription because of the increasing prices, or something else. If you don’t know how to cancel your subscription. Let’s check how to cancel Spotify.
How to cancel Spotify Premium
If you have already purchased the Spotify Premium subscription, you can cancel your subscription by following these steps:

- In the account overview section, scroll down until you find the ‘Your Plan’ section.
- Select ‘Change Plan’

When you cancel your Spotify Premium subscription, you can still use Spotify’s opportunities until the last day of your billing cycle. You can use these steps to cancel the subscription on your phone’s web browser.
Cancel Spotify via Third Party Services
You must have seen some campaigns about Spotify Premium by other companies like AT&T and Verizon. They offer free Spotify Premium access for a limited time for their user. When you subscribed to the music platform via these companies, you can use the paid subscription for free, and access all the features on Spotify. If you subscribed to the music platform through a third-party service like them, you can cancel your subscription from that particular service by following these steps:
- Log in to your carrier’s website or the third-party app you signed up from.

- Find the Spotify entry, and proceed to cancel the subscription.
- Consult your carrier’s customer service if you encounter problems.
Spotify also explains this situation on its support page,
“No option to change plan?
This means your plan is associated with a partner company (e.g. your mobile or internet provider). To cancel, find their contact link on your account page under Payment.
If you pay through iTunes, see Apple’s steps to cancel.”
