Apple Music officially launches in Pakistan

Mahnoor Bukhari • October 2, 2026 • Pakistan
Apple Music is now officially available in Pakistan. The service has arrived in the country more than 11 years after its global launch in 2015.
Apple confirmed the availability through an update to its Apple Media Services page on September 30, 2026. Pakistani users can now subscribe to Apple Music directly through their Apple accounts.
The service also offers prices in Pakistani rupees. Users no longer need a foreign Apple ID or other methods to access the platform.

What are Apple Music prices in Pakistan?

Apple Music is offering two main plans for Pakistani users.
  • Individual plan: Rs379 per month
  • Family plan: Rs649 per month
  • Free trial: One month for new users
The Family plan can be shared with up to six family members. Both plans provide access to more than 100 million songs.
The service will renew automatically after the free trial. Users can cancel the subscription if they do not want to continue.

Is the PayPak card supported?

The launch also brings support for local payment methods. Pakistani users can use eligible PayPak debit cards to pay for Apple Music.
This means users do not need an international payment card to subscribe. They can make the payment through a local Pakistani bank card if it supports PayPak.
This makes the service easier to access for people who previously faced payment problems.

What Pakistani users need to do

Users who want to subscribe can open the Music app on their iPhone. Their Apple account should be set to Pakistan.
They can then select the Individual or Family plan and add an eligible local payment card.
New subscribers can use the one-month free trial before the paid subscription begins.
Apple Music is also available on Android. However, the new launch gives Pakistani iPhone users official access through Apple’s local services.
The launch ends a long wait for Apple Music in Pakistan. It also gives local users another major option for music streaming.
