Deezer brings new subscription fees to Nigeria

In the past, Deezer was the most expensive streaming platform in Nigeria.

On March 9, 2021, Deezer announced its new subscription tiers.

Since, music is such a big part of our lives, starting today, global audio streaming service Deezer is lowering the price of its monthly subscription fees, and changing the currency from USD to NGN.

New prices are as follows:

• Deezer Premium, 900 NGN
• Deezer HiFi, 1400 NGN
• Deezer Family, 1400 NGN

Paying Deezer subscribers in Nigeria will continue to have unlimited access to our global library of 73 million tracks from around the world. You can count on our editors to highlight local artists and curate popular playlists such as Naija Heat, New Nigeria and Afrobeats.

Whether you choose Premium, Family or HiFi, you’ll have an uninterrupted, ad-free experience including:

• Flow, an endless music stream created just for you. You’ll hear a mix of familiar favourites as well as recommendations for new tracks. 
• Lyrics on the go lets you follow and sing along to your favourite tracks wherever you are
• Songcatcher, our in-app feature that identifies unknown tracks and lets you add them directly to your library
• Offline listening, so that you can download all the music you want without using data.

“We want all music fans in Nigeria to have the best of both worlds. Whether it’s supporting local artists or discovering global artists, there’s something for just about everyone. Now, with our new affordable price, Nigerians have more reason to hit play and turn up the volume,” says Ralph Pighin, SVP Europe, Asia and Africa at Deezer.

Let Deezer help you find your Flow.

In the past, Deezer was the most expensive streaming platform in Nigeria. Its premium used to cost NGN2,000 while its family play used to cost around N5,000. It follows in the footsteps of Spotify which also slashed its pricing for Africa and Nigeria. In the same vein, TIDAL slashed its price for the Nigerian market.

The trailblazer for this style was Apple Music and YouTube Music followed suit. Audiomack, MusicTime and Boomplay cost slightly lower than those plans, however.
