With more than 10 million paid subscribers and a total of 40 million active users worldwide. Spotify is now one of the most popular and free music streaming site online. The popular music streaming website allows its users to stream through a large database of songs ranging from old favorites to latest hits for free.
Spotify can be accessed from any device that is connected to the internet, however like most US or UK based music streaming sites, Spotify has country based restrictions and currently it is only accessible from 38 countries and if you are not residing in any of these countries, you will be greeted with “ Spotify is currently not available in your country “ message on the sites landing page.
Fortunately, Spotify country based restrictions can be easily bypassed with the help of an VPN. Today i am going to show you one of the easiest methods by which you can access Spotify for free from any country.
What do you need?
To start with, i will recommend you to install and use Google Chrome on your PC. Once you’ve installed Chrome on your PC, run it and install a chrome extension called Hola. Hola is essentially an free VPN plugin for Google chrome which allows you to access sites which are blocked or not available in your country. You can download the Hola extension for Chrome from the following link.
Download HOLA for Google Chrome
Once Hola is installed on Google Chrome, it will appear in the Chrome extension bar.
How to Use Spotify in Countries where it is Not Available
- Step 1: Head over to Spotify.com on Chrome and you will see the following screen with an “ Spotify is currently not available in your country “ message.
- Step 2: Click on the Hola icon and again click on the on/off icon to turn it ON.
- Step 3: Click on the US flag to select the US VPN.
- Step 4: Wait for a few seconds and Hola will reload Spotify through an US VPN. Voila! you can now access Spotify. Do not click on Download Spotify, instead click on Go to Web Player.
- Step 5: On the next page, click on Sign up with Facebook and allow Spotify to access your Facebook account.
That’s it, once you’ve allowed Spotify to access your Facebook account, you will be taken directly to the Spotify music player on the web. now you can play all the music you want on Spotify for free.
The above method can be used in the following countries where Spotify is now available : India, Pakistan,
