How to transfer playlists from Deezer to Pandora
Four steps. The same on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux.
Quick answer
To transfer Deezer to Pandora, install FreeYourMusic, select Deezer as the source and Pandora as the destination, choose the playlists you want, and start the transfer. The app finds each song on Pandora 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 Pandora as the destination
On the "Select destination" screen, tap Pandora and sign in. FreeYourMusic needs access to your Pandora library to create the playlists there.
- 3
Select what to move
Tick the playlists you want on Pandora. 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

Move, convert or import: one transfer from Deezer to Pandora

Moving from Deezer to Pandora, explained
Pandora works differently from most services, and that shapes any move into it. Built on the Music Genome Project, Pandora is at heart a radio and stations service — you thumb tracks up and down to shape what plays rather than curating on-demand playlists. FreeYourMusic reads your Deezer library through Deezer’s official sign-in and brings your playlists over so your songs are there to build stations from.
This guide explains what transfers, what cannot, how matching works, how long it takes, and how the two services really differ. If you just want to start, install FreeYourMusic, connect both accounts and pick what to move — the detail is below.
What transfers to Pandora, and what does not
FreeYourMusic brings your Deezer playlists across so they can live in Pandora as playlists and seeds for stations. Favourites, saved albums and followed artists do not transfer to Pandora. Because Pandora’s model is stations and thumbs rather than fixed playlists, the experience on the other side is naturally more radio-shaped than a like-for-like copy.
Two things to keep in mind. First, Pandora is a US-only service, so you need a US account to receive a transfer. Second, Deezer’s Flow does not follow, uploaded MP3s have no streaming equivalent, and podcasts stay behind.
How FreeYourMusic matches your tracks
Each Deezer track is matched to the same recording in Pandora, preferring the ISRC code the industry assigns and falling back to title, artist, album and duration otherwise. That is how your playlist tracks arrive as the right recordings to build stations around.
Where a track has no exact counterpart, FreeYourMusic flags it for one-tap Rematch instead of dropping it silently. Given Pandora’s stations-first design, getting the right songs in as seeds matters most — they are what its Music Genome uses to shape everything it plays next.
How long does a Deezer to Pandora 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 step away.
FreeYourMusic runs natively on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux, so the move is not tied to one device. Start it on your laptop and check progress on your phone; it is the same account and the same transfer.
Deezer vs Pandora: what actually changes
This is the biggest mindset shift of any switch from Deezer. Deezer is about on-demand playlists, Flow and lossless HiFi. Pandora is about stations: you pick a seed, thumb tracks up or down, and its Music Genome learns your taste to spin an endless, personalised radio stream.
Practically, Pandora shines for lean-back listening and discovery within a mood, while Deezer gives you precise control and a global catalogue. Pandora is also US-only, so it suits listeners in the States who prefer radio-style listening over managing a library by hand.
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 seeding your Pandora account, and keeping both live means you never lose access mid-move.
Deezer has a free tier, and Pandora offers a free ad-supported tier in the US, with paid Plus and Premium tiers adding on-demand play and offline listening. Both connect through their own official sign-in, and your password is never shared with FreeYourMusic.
Tips for a clean migration
Think in seeds rather than playlists. Put your most-loved tracks into a playlist and bring that across first, since those songs make the best seeds for stations that actually sound like you. Tidy your Deezer library beforehand so the seeds reflect your current taste.
When the transfer finishes, resolve the Rematch list, then start thumbing tracks up and down as you listen — Pandora improves quickly once you give it feedback. Consider Pandora Premium if you want on-demand playback rather than the free radio tier.
Keeping Deezer and Pandora in sync afterwards
A one-time move is not your only option. If you keep Deezer for playlists and use Pandora for radio-style listening, FreeYourMusic’s Auto-Sync mirrors your libraries on a schedule so new playlist additions on one become fresh seeds on the other.
And the transfer runs the other way too, from Pandora back to Deezer, if you want to bring music home. Your collection stays portable. Download FreeYourMusic, connect Deezer and Pandora, and see how much comes across — the free tier lets you try first.
