Description: SPOT Spotify Technology December 02, 2025

Spotify Technology S.A. operates a global audio-streaming platform split into two revenue streams: a Premium subscription tier that delivers ad-free, offline-capable music and podcast listening, and an Ad-Supported tier that offers free, on-demand access to the same catalog funded by display and audio ads. The company also provides ancillary services such as sales, distribution, marketing, R&D, and customer support.

As of Q3 2024, Spotify reported 615 million monthly active users, with paid subscribers rising 12 % YoY to 210 million-a key driver of its growing average revenue per user (ARPU), which reached €10.5 in the quarter. Podcast monetization continues to accelerate, contributing roughly 20 % of total ad revenue, while macro-economic factors such as a rebound in digital advertising spend and higher discretionary consumer income support the ad-supported segment.
