A Spotify Premium account with your family just became even more worthwhile with Spotify offering free Google Home Mini speakers to all family account holders.

Sharing a Spotify Premium account with your family lets you add up to six people to one subscription, costing only $14.99 a month. Considering a single Spotify Premium account costs $9.99 each month that’s a massive saving for every person on the subscription.

Now the family streaming experience is getting even better with a new family member joining your Spotify subscription – the Google Home Mini speaker. The Smart speaker powered by Google Assistant is capable of listening to you and streaming music for you just by being told what to play. Google Home’s Voice Match is capable of recognising 6 different voices so that everyone on the family account gets their own personalised streaming experience. It’s the perfect companion to Spotify and other music streaming services, and also offers features such as news updates, calendar planning and more.

Spotify’s chief premium business officer, Alex Norström says: “We’re excited to be partnering with Google Home to bring the magic of voice to our Spotify Premium Family subscribers. After all, what’s more fun than sharing the music you love with the people you love. For Family Plan subscribers, enjoying those moments will only get better. Now anytime their favourite artists comes up, they can simply say ‘Hey Google, turn it up!’.”

The offer is available for both existing Family plan subscribers as well as new subscribers. The ‘master account holder’ can claim their free Google Home Mini from www.spotify.com/us/family if they are in the US. The offer is available now until the 31st December, 2018.
