How to transfer playlists from Deezer to Spotify
Four steps. The same on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux.
Quick answer
To transfer Deezer to Spotify, install FreeYourMusic, select Deezer as the source and Spotify as the destination, choose the playlists you want, and start the transfer. The app finds each song on Spotify and lists any track it could not match.
- 1
Connect Deezer as the source
Open FreeYourMusic, tap the Deezer tile on the "Select source" screen and sign in on the Deezer sign-in page. FreeYourMusic does not store your Deezer password.
- 2
Choose Spotify as the destination
On the "Select destination" screen, tap Spotify and sign in. FreeYourMusic needs access to your Spotify library to create the playlists there.
- 3
Select what to move
Tick the playlists you want on Spotify. Use the filters and the search field to find them, or select everything to move your whole Deezer library at once.
- 4
Start the transfer and check the results
Tap "Begin transfer". FreeYourMusic matches every song on Spotify, keeps the playlist names and the song order, and shows a confidence score for each match. Use Rematch to fix any song it could not find.
Good to know before you move Deezer to Spotify
Deezer as the source
Playlists, saved albums and followed artists can move from Deezer.

A free Spotify account can receive your music. Spotify searches by ISRC code, so songs from a service that provides ISRC codes match very precisely.
Read the Spotify guide →Spotify has a built-in import. Here is how FreeYourMusic is different.
The Spotify mobile app can import playlists from Deezer: open Your Library and tap Import your music. A partner service runs the import, and it moves music into Spotify only.
| Built-in Spotify import | FreeYourMusic | |
|---|---|---|
| Where your music can go | Spotify only | Spotify and 15 other services |
| Move between two Spotify accounts | No | Yes |
| Keep playlists in sync after the move | No, one-time import | Yes, with Auto-Sync (Premium) |
| Back up your library | No | Yes, with Cloud Backup (Premium) |
| Move away from Spotify later | No | Yes, in any direction |
For a quick one-time move, the built-in import can be enough. Use FreeYourMusic to keep services in sync, move between accounts, back up your library, or leave Spotify later.

Move, convert or import: one transfer from Deezer to Spotify
Whatever you call it, it is the same job. You can move your Deezer playlists to Spotify, convert a Deezer playlist into a Spotify playlist, or import your Deezer library into Spotify. FreeYourMusic does all three in one transfer, for one playlist or for a library of thousands of songs.

Moving from Deezer to Spotify, explained
Deezer and Spotify are close cousins, which makes moving between them refreshingly straightforward — you keep a big, familiar catalogue and swap Flow for Discover Weekly. FreeYourMusic reads your Deezer library through Deezer’s official sign-in and recreates it inside Spotify — playlists and followed artists.
This guide covers what a transfer moves, what cannot come along, how songs are matched, how long it takes, and an honest Deezer versus Spotify comparison. If you just want to start, install FreeYourMusic, connect both accounts and choose what to move — the detail is below.
What transfers to Spotify, and what does not
Your playlists move with their names and order preserved, and followed artists carry over. Deezer favourites do not transfer to Spotify. Move everything or pick playlists individually, with counts shown before you commit.
A couple of things stay behind. Deezer’s Flow is a personalised feature unique to Deezer, so it does not transfer as a playlist. Any MP3s you uploaded to Deezer are your own files, not catalogue tracks, and cannot be matched, and podcasts do not cross over.
How FreeYourMusic matches your tracks
Each Deezer track is matched to the same recording in Spotify, preferring the ISRC code the industry assigns to every recording and falling back to title, artist, album and duration when it is missing. Because both catalogues are large and broadly comparable, match rates are usually excellent.
The occasional regional exclusive or unusual edition may lack a perfect counterpart. FreeYourMusic never silently drops a track — anything uncertain is flagged for one-tap Rematch with suggestions, so you decide on every substitution.
How long does a Deezer to Spotify transfer take?
Most transfers finish in minutes. With both accounts connected, around 1,000 tracks usually completes in under ten minutes. Larger libraries take longer, but the transfer runs on its own — start it and get on with your day.
FreeYourMusic runs natively on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux, so the move is not tied to one machine. Start it on your laptop and follow progress on your phone; it is the same account and the same transfer.
Deezer vs Spotify: what actually changes
These two feel very similar day to day. Both have huge catalogues and strong personalisation — Deezer with Flow and dependable synced lyrics, Spotify with Discover Weekly, Release Radar and Wrapped. Deezer’s HiFi tier offers lossless FLAC; Spotify streams compressed by default.
Where Spotify pulls ahead is the size of its social and free ecosystem and its collaborative-playlist culture. If those matter to you, or your friends are all on Spotify, the switch makes sense — and thanks to the catalogue overlap, most of your library will feel right at home.
Do you need to keep Deezer while you transfer?
Yes — keep Deezer active until the transfer is finished and checked. FreeYourMusic reads your Deezer library while copying it into Spotify, and keeping both live means you never lose access mid-move.
Both services have free tiers, so neither side needs a paid plan to run the move. Both connect through their own official sign-in, and your password is never shared with FreeYourMusic.
Tips for a clean migration
Tidy your Deezer playlists first so you carry only what you actually play. Because the catalogues are so similar, match quality is usually high, but transferring a couple of playlists first and checking them in Spotify still builds confidence quickly. Note any uploaded MP3s that will not follow.
When the transfer finishes, resolve any flagged tracks in the Rematch list, then let Discover Weekly build up and download your key playlists for offline listening.
Keeping Deezer and Spotify in sync afterwards
A one-time move is not your only option. If you are trialling Spotify while keeping Deezer, FreeYourMusic’s Auto-Sync mirrors the two libraries on a schedule so a playlist addition on one appears on the other without effort.
And the transfer runs the other way too, from Spotify back to Deezer, if you change your mind. Your library stays portable. Download FreeYourMusic, connect Deezer and Spotify, and see how much comes across — the free tier lets you try first.

No. FreeYourMusic copies your music to Spotify and leaves your Deezer library as it is. You decide later whether to keep or cancel your Deezer account.
