Samsung announced a partnership with Spotify that will give buyers of select Galaxy A phones up to three months of Spotify Premium at no additional cost in Latin America, the company said. The promotion runs from April 2026 through April 2027 and applies to eligible devices listed by Samsung and its partners.
Samsung named the Galaxy A57, Galaxy A37, Galaxy A17 and Galaxy A07 among eligible phones and listed retail prices for several models on its U.S. store: the Galaxy A57 5G at $549.99, the Galaxy A37 5G at $449.99 and the Galaxy A17 5G at $174.99 — the A17 showing a $25 discount off a regular $199.99 price. To claim the offer, buyers must open the Samsung Members app, go to the Benefits section and either create a new Spotify account or log in with an existing one to activate the benefit. Activation must be completed within the promotional window from April 2026 to April 2027. Samsung said the tie-up will put music at the center of the experience — “This partnership puts music at the heart of the experience, with greater freedom, personalization, and entertainment.”
SammyGuru reported on April 28, 2026 that Samsung had announced the Spotify partnership for select Galaxy A phones. SamMobile, which last updated its report on April 27, 2026, said Samsung may offer Galaxy A series phones in South America with a three-month Spotify Premium subscription at no additional cost but noted there was no information about which countries would receive the benefit or when it would launch in specific markets. SamMobile also repeated that people who already have Spotify Premium may receive two additional months of membership for free.
Samsung’s move lands against a crowded low-end and mid-range market. SamMobile reports Samsung is the number one smartphone brand in South America by shipments, and the outlets covering the deal frame the promotion as a sales tool tied to the latest Galaxy A series. The sources say the promotion is intended to help Samsung sell more phones and may also expand Spotify’s user base after the free period ends.
The announcement leaves a clear gap between promise and detail. Samsung set the overall terms — eligible devices, the April 2026–April 2027 activation window and the redemption path through the Samsung Members app — but neither Samsung nor the reporting outlets supplied a country-by-country rollout schedule for South America. That matters because the offer is limited to Latin America, and buyers who already subscribe to Spotify Premium won’t automatically get the full three months; existing subscribers may receive up to two additional months instead.
Does the bundle matter? The companies have designed it to; Samsung says the partnership centers music on these phones, and industry reporting frames the discount as a tactical play to move Galaxy A inventory in competitive markets. Given Samsung’s leading shipment position in South America and the clear, time-limited incentive for buyers and for Spotify to capture trial users, the promotion is likely to boost short-term sales of the named Galaxy A models and increase Spotify’s reach in the region — even if the precise local rollout and which countries will participate remain unspecified.
