Spotify has four Premium plans to choose from, but they’re all monthly subscriptions. The individual Premium plan costs $9.99 per month, which works out to $120 per year. We’ll show you a trick to get a cheaper annual plan.

Annual subscriptions are great for services that you know you’ll use for a long time. Sadly, Spotify doesn’t offer an annual subscription. They do, however, have 12-month Premium subscription gift cards for $99. There’s nothing stopping you from gifting yourself a 12-month gift card and saving $20 per year.

The digital gift cards arrive via email with a link to the redemption code shortly after purchasing. The physical cards have the redemption code printed on them.

Once you have the code, go to spotify.com/redeem in a web browser. Enter the code in the text box and fill out the rest of the form.

Confirm that you want to use the gift card by clicking “Redeem Code.”

That’s it! You’re all set with Spotify Premium until a year from now. It’s strange that Spotify doesn’t offer an annual plan, yet you can still buy 12-months upfront with a gift card. Take advantage of this little “feature” and save $20! It’s our little secret.
