Why is Spotify premium more expensive if I want to buy codes in the store?

It should be the same price.

Where are you buying them and what is the cost?

Cheap Premium cards are probably purchased with stolen Credit card and those accouts will be closed soon or later at Spotify.

If your account will be closed regarding to this, you can't open it again for use and you lost all your "superfree" Premium months advertised in some places in Internet.

Please do not purchase those cards from non-official stores/ways.

The price is 99 kronor if I pay with my Visa on internet. If I go to 7Eleven I pay 100 or 105 kronor. A "service fee" is included in that price. Where is the service in that? It is a piece of paper with a code on it. If I buy for example a magazine at 7Eleven, I don't pay 5 kronor extra to get a receipt. It's the same thing.

Spotify sell the codes to retailers at the same price as online.

It must be the retailer adding the extra fee.

Yes, I suspected that was the case. But this is the way I see it; by buying a one month subscription with Spotify, I close a deal with Spotify, not with 7Eleven or with someone else. Who Spotify sell to, or to what price is something I really don't care about. I go to the store to buy a code and I pay more than I would if I purchase online, that's a fact. Anyway, thanks for previous answer hammeh
