Starting today, Spotify users in several countries can create a managed account for their child without a Premium subscription. Here are the details.
Managed accounts now available to parents and guardians with free Spotify accounts
Managed accounts are a special type of Spotify account that allows parents to give their children a separate, age-appropriate listening experience with parental controls. They were launched in 2024 exclusively for Premium Family subscribers in select countries, and soon expanded to more regions.
With Spotify’s managed accounts, parents can filter explicit content, block specific artists or songs, turn off videos, and keep their child’s listening history separate from their own recommendations and, perhaps more importantly to many parents, Spotify Wrapped.
Starting today, Spotify is ending the limitation that made managed accounts available only to Premium Family subscribers. This means that any parent with a Spotify account can now create a free managed account for their child.
