Payments

Our payments’ vision is that money flows seamlessly, efficiently and safely across the Spotify community, so that users can easily pay for products and services from Spotify and creators, anywhere across our platform, using the payment products they prefer and creators can get paid efficiently as they monetise across the increasingly diverse range of opportunities on the Spotify platform.
