Spotify is one of the most popular streaming music providers around and they also happen to be one of the few that offer a student discount. If you’re currently a student in an eligible country, you can pay just $5.99 per month for Premium access (50% discount from their normal Spotify Premium plan), which is pretty incredible for unlimited music streaming.
Here is the full list of supported countries:
America, Austria, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Ecuador, England, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong China, Hungary, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Lithuania, Latvia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Philippines, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey.
To sign up, you'll need to firstly apply for the discount through http://www.spotify.com/student. Now, Spotify uses SheerID to verify your student’s eligibility status—but you can manually upload documents such as your student ID card if the automatic verification fails.
1) Go to http://www.spotify.com/student.
2) Just scroll down till you see "Student Discount" on your screen. Click ‘Learn More’ next to it.
3) Click on ‘Get Premium‘ at the top of your screen.
4) You will head to the ‘Sign Up/ Sign in‘ page. Click on ‘Sign Up’ just beside the ‘Don’t Have an Account’ tab. Next, the Sign up Option will come up, and you will enter your details or use Facebook to sign in.
5) Then signing up with your university email address (it must be ‘.edu’ Email address.) which allows you a student discount.
6) Next, you will need to fill in your credit card details. Pay the required fee, which now is going to be $5.99 for you instead of the standard $11.99 per month for the premium Spotify service. Click on the ‘Start Premium’ option, and you will be on Spotify for students’ discount!
You're all set up with Spotify Premium at half price! Enjoy your music as you study!
