Can you cancel your
Spotify
 subscription? Check eligibility and conditions

  • Cancel anytime – Spotify Premium has no lock-in contracts. You can cancel whenever you choose.

  • Premium continues until billing date – cancellation stops auto-renewal but doesn’t cut off existing paid time.

  • Free trials – cancel before the end of trial to avoid charges (trial access ends immediately if you cancel early).

  • Third-party billing – Apple, Google, or telco subscribers must cancel via those providers.

  • Gift cards & prepaid – No refunds. Premium runs until prepaid balance expires.

  • No partial refunds – outside EU/UK’s 14-day cooling-off, unused time isn’t refunded.
