But 2026 brought a twist: after Spotify&#8217;s latest price increase, Deezer is now the <strong>cheaper option at almost every tier<\/strong>, something that wasn&#8217;t true a year ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s the full 2026 breakdown of Deezer&#8217;s plans, how they stack up against <a href=\"https:\/\/evertry.co\/blog\/how-to-pay-for-spotify-premium\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/evertry.co\/blog\/how-to-pay-for-spotify-premium\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Spotify<\/a>, and what to know before you subscribe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Deezer Cheaper Than Spotify in 2026?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Yes.<\/strong> As of mid-2026, Deezer Premium costs <strong>$11.99\/month<\/strong>, while Spotify Premium Individual costs <strong>$12.99\/month<\/strong>, a $1\/month difference that adds up to $12\/year. Both now include lossless audio at no extra cost. Deezer is also cheaper on Duo, Family, and Student tiers (see table below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Deezer vs Spotify: 2026 Price Comparison<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Plan<\/th><th>Deezer<\/th><th>Spotify<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Individual \/ Premium<\/td><td>$11.99\/mo<\/td><td>$12.99\/mo<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Duo<\/td><td>$15.99\/mo<\/td><td>$18.99\/mo<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Family (up to 6)<\/td><td>$19.99\/mo<\/td><td>$21.99\/mo<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Student<\/td><td>$5.99\/mo<\/td><td>$6.99\/mo<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Lossless audio included<\/td><td>Yes (all paid tiers)<\/td><td>Yes (Premium and up)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Prices verified as of mid-2026.

But in many countries, particularly across the Global South, local debit and credit cards get declined due to forex restrictions or cross-border payment limits, even when the card has funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most reliable fix is a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/evertry.co\/blog\/what-is-a-virtual-dollar-card\/\">virtual dollar card<\/a><\/strong>, which bridges your local currency to a globally accepted USD billing profile:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sign up and fund your wallet in local currency via <a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/zpuf3d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">EverTry<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Generate a virtual Visa or Mastercard pre-funded in USD<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enter those details on Deezer&#8217;s payment page.

Deezer Premium is $11.99\/month, compared to Spotify Premium Individual at $12.99\/month, and Deezer is cheaper across the Duo, Family, and Student tiers as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Does Deezer have lossless audio like Spotify?<\/strong> Yes. Deezer includes FLAC lossless (HiFi) audio on all paid tiers as standard. Spotify added lossless audio to Premium plans in 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Is Deezer Free actually free?<\/strong> Yes, it&#8217;s ad-supported with no monthly fee, but mobile playback is shuffle-only and offline mode isn&#8217;t included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Can I share my Premium account?<\/strong> You can link up to 3 devices, but streaming is limited to one device at a time. For simultaneous listening, use Duo or Family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How do I switch plans?<\/strong> Go to Settings &gt; Manage my subscription. Upgrades apply immediately; downgrades take effect at the end of the current billing cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Can I use a gift card for the Student plan?<\/strong> No. Student and annual discounts require a direct, recurring payment method to verify eligibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re choosing purely on price, Deezer now edges out Spotify across every tier in 2026, and you get lossless audio standard either way. Students get the best value on Deezer at $5.99\/month, while anyone planning to listen year-round should look at Deezer&#8217;s annual Premium plan at $8.99\/month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a payment barrier is what&#8217;s stopping you, not the price itself, a virtual dollar card can solve that in minutes, so you&#8217;re not locked out of the better deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>EverTry is an independent fintech platform and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Deezer SA or Spotify AB.
