Music 1-month gift subscription - $4.99 (50% off)

Deal Link:
Savings:
50% off
Google Play Music are offering half-price gift subscriptions, looks like you can apply the gift code to your own account (does not work with family accounts!), I was able to use my Google Play balance from the Rewards app, and codes will stack up to a maximum of 5 years per account.

Subscriptions available:
1 month @ $4.99
3 months @ $14.98
6 months @ $29.97


UDPATE - 3 and 6 month prices have gone up to $25 and $50 respectively.

All prices are in Canadian dollars
Gifts of Play Content

Eligible content and pricing is subject to availability at the time of the actual redemption of the content gift. Content purchased or gifted through Google Play is for personal and lawful use only. The content gift expires if the content is no longer available on Google Play or if the Google Play service or the Google Play Gifts program is discontinued.

Users will only be able to redeem subscription gifts until their account accrues up to a total of five (5) years of subscriptions at any one time. If the recipient of the gift redeems the gift and subscribes to Google Play Music the recipient will have access Google Play Music for the time period specified in the gift. At the end of the specified time period, the recipient will have the opportunity to provide a valid form of payment to continue their subscription to Google Play Music, otherwise the subscription ends and the recipient’s access to the Google Play Music subscription content will terminate. Current subscribers of YouTube Music Key will not be able to redeem gifts of Google Play Music subscriptions.

This looks like it's only for an individual sub - any deals on the family subscription? Or can this somehow be used for family sub?

Unfortunately no, this does not apply to family subscriptions. I have a family subscription that I'm cancelling and going with this deal instead, as it's just the two of us on my family plan anyway. I've added a note that this does not work with family accounts; thanks for reminding me!

For what it's worth, my family subscription is still active until the end of the month, and I'm getting error BM-CPPV-03 which I assume is because it won't let me redeem until my family subscription runs out. If anyone with a family plan is doing the same thing, let me know if you get the same error!

Do you happen to know if you have the 7.99/mo launch rate, does redeeming this void that rate afterwards?

Using the rewards credit is a pretty good deal too. Can we buy the Google Play gift cards in store and use those towards this promo?

Thank you for posting this!

I'd be interested in knowing this too. I'm on the 7.99 rate and would like to keep it as long as possible.

I'm on Google Play Music's grandfathered $7.99 plan as I've been a subscriber since day one of their launch in Canada. This promo looks appealing but I too wonder if grandfathered accounts that switch to this deal will be charged the regular $9.99 price later on.

Confirmed it can be added to an existing individual account! Up to 5 years can stack.

After redeeming I received:
Enjoy your gift of 6 months of music. Regular monthly billing for your subscription resumes on Sep 5, 2016

On my account I see the $7.99 rate remains and the next renewal is 6 months away:

Thank you!

Does anyone know if the codes expire after you purchase them? I assume they don't but I'm unsure as the fine print doesn't mention any time stipulation. I'd prefer to buy two 6 month subscriptions to get a full year.

Does not appear so. I may buy a few 6 month codes and redeem as needed in case I need to move away from Play Music one day.

One restriction is it must be used in a Canadian Play account.

They're probably preparing up for Youtube RED (should come this year to Canada and includes a Google Play Music subscription)
In the US, I think it's 9,99$

Damnit!

I was all set to go with Apple Music, but now this seems a better deal. I had been using Songza and really liked that.

The one thing that I was interested in Apple Music is the ability to set an 'off' time. Can Google Play automatically shut off at a preprogrammed time?

Why is getting 6 1-month subscriptions cheaper than 1 6-month? It's suppose to be the other way around.
Kaboom! Kaboom! KABOOM!
