Samsung Galaxy users in select markets who haven’t subscribed to Spotify Premium before can now get a free six-month subscription.
According to an update posted on Spotify’s For The Record blog today (March 6), the offer will be available in the US beginning March 6, 2020 (today) and in Germany and Italy beginning on March 13, with France and the UK to come.
Spotify became Samsung’s ‘go-to music service provider’ in August 2018 and it revealed last March that it would come pre-installed on millions of new Samsung mobile devices.
Last month, Spotify announced an even deeper integration with the tech company’s mobile devices.
Spotify will be integrated directly into the keyboard on new Samsung devices, according to a blog post published last month, in addition to being integrated with the clock app.
Writing in a Q&A blog in August 2018, Spotify boss Daniel Ek, said: “Samsung makes devices for every aspect of our lives – everything from smartphones and TVs, to tablets, speakers, and watches.
“And we have designed Spotify to deliver personalized music to consumers around the world – wherever they are, across millions of devices.
“This partnership with Samsung reduces the friction for users to get Spotify up and running on multiple Samsung devices once the accounts have been linked.
“It allows us to create a seamless music listening experience together for the user that would be hard for either of us to build alone. It’s a great fit.”Music Business Worldwide
