If you can't go a day without heading to Spotify and blasting out your favourite tunes, you may be disappointed to know that it will cost you more from next month. The music streaming platform will be increasing its subscription prices from May 2024, as many other services have also done in recent months. Spotify Premium account holders who pay annually or monthly may have already received an email detailing the new pricing. At the moment, an individual monthly premium subscription costs £10.
99. However, from May, this will increase to £11.99 monthly, Wales Online reports. This is an increase of 9 percent, and those who pay for their subscriptions annually will also have to fork out another £12. Spotify's Premium Family plan will increase to £19.99 a month - previously this was £17.99 a month.

Other plans available on Spotify include Premium Student, which costs £5.99 a month. And Premium Duo, which costs £16.99 a month to own two premium accounts.
