[![Deezer](https://hypebot.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451b36c69e2022ad3cd1f35200b-200wi "Deezer")](https://hypebot.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451b36c69e2022ad3cd1f35200b-popup?ref=hypebot.com)Deezer has shared that it ended 2018 with 14 million active monthly users, of which 7 million are paying subscribers. About half of its paid users are in the music streamer's home country of France. “Four years ago, 80% of the revenue was telco-driven, of which the majority was coming from France. Now 75% of the revenues are coming from self-pay subscribers, and France is less than 50% of revenues. It’s quite a dramatic shift,” Deezer CEO Hans-Holger Albrecht told [Music Ally](https://musically.com/2019/01/07/deezer-targets-more-growth-with-local-focus-and-humbleness/?ref=hypebot.com).“We have around 14 million monthly active users, and we have more than seven million payers, so we have a good ratio of paying subscribers \[to free listeners\]," he continued. "And we are touching $400m in revenues this year, including growing fast on the direct-customer side. The numbers are quite solid, and we are going to see what the MENA region adds next year.”
