  If you have a laptop or PC of some sort, you can go to Spotify online and put in your credit card information. From there, you can manage your payments and account.

• Question

  Do I need to have Spotify Premium to listen to music offline?

  

  You can download the Spotify songs if you are a premium subscriber, but your downloads are not local files, so you can't play them offline. You have to play them with the Spotify app on your device. If you want to listen to Spotify music offline, you can use an app like DRmare Spotify Music Converter, which converts the Spotify songs to common audio formats like MP3, FLAC, WAV, AAC, etc.
