From Spotify Communities, you could get multiple suggestions that lead you to transfer Spotify playlist from one account to another. We have collected these probable solutions for you below. Just check them out and try if they work normally for you.

Brief Introduction to Spotify

Solution 1: Sign into your old account, drag and drop your playlists from inside the Spotify client on the Windows desktop, log out, sign in with your new account and drag the playlists back from the desktop into the client. This method worked in our tests, but you’d better follow the old account in your new account.

Solution 2: On the new account, follow the playlists from the original account, then create a new playlist with the same playlist name you’ve followed on the old account. Select all tracks in the followed playlist and add them to the newly created playlist. Then, unfollow the original playlist from the old account.

Solution 3: Make use of the Collaborative Playlist. On the old account, right click the playlist you want to transfer to new account and then check “Collaborative Playlist”. Right click the playlist again and then choose “Share > Copy Playlist Link” option. Log in your new account and then go into the search bar to paste the playlist link to search it. Then, follow the playlist on the new account.
