An email that has just reached Spotify users in Spain warns that the company will raise the price of its family plan, making access more expensive for all members of a family.
The family plan is one of the most popular of those available on Spotify, thanks to the fact that it offers “Premium” access to up to six different accounts; as its name suggests, that makes it ideal for all family members to access the benefits of Premium.
However, it is now the users of this very advantageous plan who will suffer the blow of paying something more every month, after the company has announced the change by surprise.
More expensive family Spotify
In the mail, which for now is only reaching private users and not the press, it is indicated that the new price of the Spotify family plan will be 15.99 euros per month; therefore, it rises one euro compared to the 14.99 euros that users paid up to now.
This change is already reflected on the official Spotify page, where buying the family plan already costs 15.99 euros per month for new users. However, to ease the transition to the new price, Spotify is going to give users who already have the plan one more month.

Therefore, if you already have a family plan, you will have to pay the new price from the month of March; while if you are going to hire it now, you will have to pay the new price.
To “improve the experience”
The company has concisely explained the reasons for the increase: it wants to be able to continue “innovating and investing” to offer the “best possible experience and more benefits”.
Spotify drops that it is working on offering “new content” and “additional functionality.” Let’s remember that in the last year, the company has bet everything on podcasts, which have gained a lot of importance within the platform. In 2020, podcasts were already 20% of Spotify, and after the launch of news such as a list of the best podcasts, you can imagine that that number has increased.

On the other hand, Spotify has not managed to escape the controversy of artist payments, being one of the services that pays the least per song played, despite being the most popular.
If you don’t want to pay more, at least Spotify offers an alternative: the Spotify Premium Duo plan, whose price remains at 12.99 euros for two Premium accounts. Now that you have a difference of three euros compared to the family plan, it may be more worth it if only two members of the family use Spotify.
