Spotify’s free audiobook credit is coming to Canada and other countries next week

Premium users in Canada, Ireland and New Zealand will have access to 15 hours of monthly audiobook listening at no extra cost . Subscribers in the US, UK and Australia have had access to this perk .

The Premium audiobook catalog now includes more than 250,000 titles. That’s a notable increase from the 200,000 audiobooks that were in the library as of late 2023. So when you could use a change from the millions of songs and podcasts on Spotify, you’ll have a ton of books to choose from.

Those who hit the 15-hour limit can add more audiobook listening time in 10-hour top ups. In the new markets, the extra listening time costs CAD $14.99, IRE €12.99 or NZD $19.99, per .

Since last month, Spotify has offered in the US. At $10, it’s $1 per month less than Spotify Premium for the same 15 hours of audiobook listening time. Still, depending on the lengths of books that you listen to, this plan might prove better value than Audible, which grants you one audiobook credit per month for $15. That said, unused audiobook listening time on Spotify doesn’t carry over to the next month.
