Ever found yourself wishing you could secure those coveted presale tickets for your favorite artist's upcoming concert? Spotify, in collaboration with Ticketmaster, often offers exclusive presale codes to its premium subscribers. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to get your hands on these codes and secure your spot before they sell out.
Before we dive in, ensure you have an active Spotify Premium subscription. If you're not a subscriber yet, consider upgrading to enjoy these perks and ad-free music streaming.
Understanding Spotify Presales
Spotify presales are part of the platform's effort to reward loyal subscribers with early access to event tickets. These presales usually occur a few days before the general public sale and often come with a limited number of tickets.
To participate, you'll need a presale code, which Spotify sends to eligible subscribers via email or makes available through the Spotify app. Once you have the code, you can use it on Ticketmaster to purchase tickets before they go on sale to the general public.
Checking Your Email for Presale Codes
Spotify typically sends presale codes to eligible subscribers via email. Keep an eye on your inbox, especially around the time when presales are announced. The emails usually come from "Spotify" or "Spotify Tickets" and have the subject line "Your presale code for [Artist's Name]".
If you can't find the email, check your spam folder, as sometimes promotional emails can end up there. Also, ensure you're checking the email address associated with your Spotify account.
Finding Presale Codes in the Spotify App
In addition to emails, Spotify sometimes makes presale codes available directly within the Spotify app. To find them, tap on the event listing for the concert you're interested in. If a presale code is available, you should see a "Get Presale Code" button. Tap on it, and the code will be displayed.
Once you have the code, make sure to copy it, as you'll need it to complete your purchase on Ticketmaster.
Using Your Presale Code on Ticketmaster
Now that you have your presale code, it's time to use it on Ticketmaster to secure your tickets. Here's how:
1. **Visit Ticketmaster**: Open your web browser and go to the Ticketmaster website (www.ticketmaster.com).
2. **Find the Event**: Search for the concert you're interested in using the event name or artist's name. Once you find the event, click on the "Tickets" button to proceed.
Entering the Presale Code
3. **Access the Presale**: On the event page, look for a link or button that says "Spotify Presale" or something similar. Click on it to access the presale section.
4. **Enter Your Code**: You'll be prompted to enter your presale code. Paste the code you copied earlier into the designated field and click "Submit" or "Continue".
Purchasing Your Tickets
5. **Select Your Tickets**: Once your presale code is validated, you'll be taken to the ticket selection page. Choose the quantity and type of tickets you want to purchase, then click "Continue".
6. **Complete Your Purchase**: Follow the prompts to enter your payment and shipping information. Review your order summary, and then click "Place Order" to complete your purchase.
Congratulations! You've just secured your spot at the concert using your Spotify presale code. Now all that's left to do is wait for the big event and enjoy the music!
