Spotify Premium (Monthly): Student ~A$0.86, Individual ₺29,99 TL (~A$1.73), Family ₺49.99 TL (~A$2.89) @ Spotify (VPN Req)
Welcome to the ultimate guide of Spotify subscriptions!
Like literally every guide I've made, I spent a chunk of money out of generosity to test the current validity of this method (I tested transfers from Wise into OlduBil) as well as screenshots throughout the sign-up process (see screenshots in the instructions section). The good news? Spotify Premium is at an ALL TIME LOW! Perfect for those who couldn't sign up with the Google Pay method!
Please show some love and any comments, concerns, suggestions or feedback are welcome :)
Modern problems require modern solutions. Like Xbox Game Passes, Youtube, Netflix, Discord, Google One, Microsoft 365, relocating (virtually of course) to Turkey is usually the best option, with some methods saving hundreds or thousands of dollars each year added up.
The processes below are very easy, just take it slow and you'll get there! Just remember you'll be saving hundreds at the end of the day.
Turkey VPN and Turkey-based Virtual Mastercard Required! If you do not have a Turkey-based Virtual Mastercard, see how to get one here in the instructions section (Part 1 and Part 2). You can use it forever, with many deals to come!
Note that due to a recent and continuing crash in the Turkish Lira currency(files.ozbargain.com.au), the TRY-AUD is hitting an all time low. All prices in this guide are current as of 26 June 2023.

Please read the following instructions carefully. If you already have a Turkey based Virtual Mastercard, proceed with the following instructions. If you do not have a Turkey-based Virtual Mastercard, STOP HERE and see how to get one here in the instructions section (Part 1 and Part 2): https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/784047.
Turkey based Virtual Mastercard REQUIRED
Notes: The Spotify sign up pages will be in Turkish (which is easily navigatable if you have some common sense). Feel free to translate the page to English otherwise.
-
Log in to Spotify (VPN off), or make a new account (VPN off).
-
Connect a VPN to a server in Turkey (see Notes section for suggestions).
-
Go to the Spotify Premium plans(spotify.com) page.
-
Scroll down and select the plan you want. Proceed to pay with your Turkey-based Virtual Mastercard.
-
Fly back home and turn off your VPN. YOU'RE DONE! WOOO! Enjoy your savings :)
HELP POINT: Because the popup payment windown cannot be translated to English, here are screenshots of the process in the following order: (1(files.ozbargain.com.au)), (2(files.ozbargain.com.au)), (3(files.ozbargain.com.au))
ISP Notes (Important)
-
Most VPN services will connect to Turkey, unlike India. Those include NordVPN, Private Internet Access (PIA), free Windscribe Chrome extension (recommended), free UrbanVPN Chrome extension (recommended), ExpressVPN, etc. If one doesn't work, use another VPN
- If you're using Windscribe and it shows different currencies: keep turning the windscribe on and off. Each time you don't get TRY, turn it off and on, then refresh the Spotify sign up page. You'll eventually land on TRY. Go to https://whatismyipaddress.com/ each time you turn it off/on and see if you land on Istanbul
FAQ
Q: Will I need to turn VPN on everytime I listen to Spotify?
A: No! You no longer need to have VPN on every time you use Spotify Premium. VPN is only required for sign up. After sign up, use Spotify without a VPN.
Q: I got charged a different rate compared to the prices on this post. What happened?
A: Due to foreign exchange rates constantly fluctuating, prices will differ by several cents each month
Q: I have an existing Spotify account, can I use the same email?
A: Definitely!
Q: Is signing up to Spotify Turkey going to affect my Spotify library/catalogue?
A: After setting up this sub, you may or may not notice the Spotify catalogue/recommendations may be weird with brand new regional music, etc… but your Spotify catalogue will adjust to what you’re listening to and soon it will look like nothing ever happened
Q: GST/VAT and Tax related questions?
A: Don't worry, there really isn't any tax you need to worry about.
