Back in March, the European Commission (EC) hit Apple with a massive €1.8 billion fine ($2B) for “abusing its dominant position” in music streaming on iOS and iPadOS. It was Spotify that issued the initial complaint to the EU back in 2019 and now the Stockholm-based streaming service is getting a small win in the EU where its iOS and iPadOS apps can display subscription tier pricing and promotional offers.
Sadly, there’s no direct link to external payment options (i.e. Spotify’s official website) yet as those would be subject to a 27% commission on sales from Apple. Spotify is allowed to refer users to subscribe to its service via its website but without actually showing the domain or having it hyperlinked.
To check out the Spotify pricing tiers, users on iOS and iPadOS can head over to the Spotify app’s Settings > Account > See available plans.
Spotify for iOS now shows pricing info
In related news, Spotify is launching a promotional offer for iOS and iPadOS users in the EU with 3 months free before their first subscription payment.
