What to do When You Can't Change Your Spotify Payment Information

Many users have reported difficulties in updating their payment credit card information in Spotify. When this occurs, you can get assistance by contacting Spotify user support. You can also try the following workarounds to update your payment method:

Using PayPal

When you keep getting an error message on Spotify that there is an issue with your credit card, you can try updating your payment information to pay via PayPal. You will still be able to use the new credit card; however, the payment will be processed through PayPal instead of directly from the card.

Contacting Customer Support

You can also contact Spotify customer support here, and a representative will assist you in trying to resolve the issue at hand.

Incognito

You can also try to log into your Spotify account in an incognito or private window and see if it will accept the credit card information you are entering.

Switching Connection Type

If you are trying to log in via a hotspot or other method, you can try to change your internet connection and see if that will resolve the issue. Using Wi-Fi or an Ethernet cable may help you update your information without an error message.

Community Support

You can also reach out to Spotify community support for assistance in resolving the payment issue. Users who have experienced similar difficulties will be able to walk you through how they updated their information and continued to enjoy Spotify.

Open New Account

When all else fails, you do have the option of letting your current Spotify account expire and opening a new account with the updated credit card information. This option is a last resort effort to continue enjoying your favorite tunes while also making sure your Spotify account payment is up-to-date.

Updating your Spotify credit card payment information can sometimes lead to a snag in the process. When you face difficulties updating the information, contact Spotify customer support here for information and assistance.

Why does GetHuman Write How-to Guides for Spotify Problems?

GetHuman has been working for over 10 years on sourcing information about big organizations like Spotify in order to help customers resolve customer service issues faster. We started with contact information and fastest ways to reach a human at big companies. Particularly ones with slow or complicated IVR or phone menu systems. Or companies that have self-serve help forums instead of a customer service department. From there, we realized that consumers still needed more detailed help solving the most common problems, so we expanded to this set of guides, which grows every day. And if you spot any issues with our What Do I Do If I Can't Change Payment Credit Card Info on Spotify? guide, please let us know by sending us feedback. We want to be as helpful as possible. If you appreciated this guide, please share it with your favorite people. Our free information and tools is powered by you, the customer. The more people that use it, the better it gets.
