In this guide, I’ll show you the best ways to move your playlists, including free tools, app-to-app transfer services, and a reliable method that avoids missing tracks or transfer failures.

Whether you’re moving one playlist or your entire library, here’s the simplest step-by-step guide to transfer Amazon Music to Spotify in 2025.

Part 1. Can you Transfer Music from Amazon to Spotify Directly?

If you’re hoping to move your Amazon Music playlists straight into Spotify, the short answer is no — neither app offers a built-in transfer feature. Amazon Music and Spotify operate on different ecosystems, and each platform stores music data in a closed format that cannot be exported or imported natively.

Limitations of the Native Amazon Music and Spotify Apps

Both services provide convenient playlist management, but they do not allow users to:

  • Export playlists from Amazon Music as files
  • Import playlists or songs into Spotify from external platforms
  • Sync libraries between two streaming apps
  • Transfer albums or liked songs across services

This means you cannot directly move songs, albums, or playlists from Amazon Music to Spotify using the apps alone.

You Can Transfer Amazon Music to Spotify Using Third-Party Tools

The good news is that third-party playlist transfer tools bridge this gap. These services connect to both platforms (with your permission) and automatically map, match, and move your music library from Amazon Music to Spotify.

With the right tool, you can transfer:

  • Playlists
  • Individual songs/singles
  • Full albums

These tools automatically scan your Amazon Music content and recreate the same library inside Spotify — saving you the hours of manually rebuilding everything.

Part 4: What You Can and Can't Transfer

When transferring music from Amazon Music to Spotify, it’s important to understand the limitations. Not all content can be moved seamlessly due to DRM protection and regional availability restrictions.

Category Can Transfer Can’t Transfer / Limitations Notes / Tips
Playlists Single or multiple playlists Most third-party tools handle playlists efficiently
Albums Albums available on both platforms Region-restricted albums Some albums may not exist on Spotify in your country
Individual Tracks / Singles Songs available on Spotify DRM-protected tracks Convert DRM tracks to MP3 or another DRM-free format first
Favorite / Liked Songs Can be moved if available Metadata differences Track names or versions may differ; check “unmatched songs” and manually match if needed
👀 TOP TIP

Always review the “unmatched songs” summary in your transfer tool and search manually on Spotify for missing tracks.

Part 5: Tips for a Smooth Transfer

A successful transfer is not just about the tool—it also requires some preparation. Here are some tips:

1. Organize Your Playlists

  • Clean up your Amazon Music playlists before transfer.
  • Remove songs you no longer listen to, rename playlists clearly, and group similar playlists together.

2. Remove Duplicates

  • Duplicate songs can confuse the transfer tool or clutter your Spotify library.
  • Use built-in playlist management in Amazon Music or third-party apps to remove duplicates first.

Troubleshooting Transfer Issues

Here are a few common errors and solutions:

Basic Information
Issue Fix
Songs don’t appear in Spotify Check if the song exists in your country’s Spotify catalog; search manually if needed
Transfer stops or fails Refresh your browser, re-login accounts, or restart the transfer tool
Some tracks are unmatched Use the manual search option in the transfer tool to match them correctly
Playlist order changes Manually reorder in Spotify if sequence is important

Extra Tips

  • Keep the browser or app open until the transfer finishes.
  • Use a stable internet connection for large playlists or full-library transfers.
  • For DRM-protected Amazon Music tracks, convert them to MP3 first using a desktop converter.
  • Consider enabling auto-sync (available in Premium plans) if you frequently update playlists.

Part 6: FAQs

1. Can you transfer music from Amazon Music to Spotify for free?

Yes. Most 3rd-party tools, such as Soundiiz and TuneMyMusic. FreeYourMusic and SongShift offer a free plan. However, the free plan is limited to one playlist at a time or a small number of songs.

2. How long does the transfer take?

  • Small playlists (under 100 songs) usually take a few minutes.
  • Large playlists (500+ songs) take longer, depending on internet speed and the tool's performance.

3. Will my playlist order be preserved?

Yes. Most tools preserve the original track order when transferring playlists. Always verify the playlist in Spotify after the transfer to confirm order and completeness.

Conclusion

Transferring playlists directly between Amazon Music and Spotify is not possible. Therefore, users who wish to transfer playlists from Amazon Music to Spotify must use third-party tools, such as Soundiiz, TuneMyMusic, FreeYourMusic, or SongShift. We have also discussed Mediaio, a unique converter tool that converts Amazon Music playlists to MP3 format, which can be later uploaded to Spotify manually. This method overcomes DRM regulations and regional availability issues. If you want to transfer DRM-protected content from Amazon to Spotify, use Mediaio.
