FAQs
What happens if I cancel or don't renew my subscription? Do I need to take my projects down?
If you cancel or don’t renew, you don’t need to take your projects down. Any game or project released under an active subscription remains licensed forever, so you can continue selling it. Plus, player streams or gameplay uploads aren’t considered new projects.
Can I cancel whenever? And how does it work?
Yes! You can cancel your subscription anytime under your 'My Account' Column, click on 'My Subscriptions'. If you forget to cancel and haven’t downloaded any tracks, we offer a full refund within 14 days.
After canceling my subscription, can I continue using the music or sound effects tracks?
Once your subscription ends, your license to use the music and SFX expires. To use tracks in new projects after canceling, you’ll need to renew your subscription or buy them individually.
Which plan allows me to license music for videos I am making for a client?
Our Pro and Business plans support client projects, while the Creator plan is for personal use or personal projects only.
I need to make a video for both online and broadcast. May I use the Business Subscription plan for music for my video?
No, our Business Plan is strictly for video games, web, apps, podcast, social corporate content.
Broadcast or paid streaming rights (e.g., Netflix, Hulu, Disney+) aren’t included. For those, please purchase a Legendary Music License.
Is the whole catalog under the subscription plan?
Yes! All music tracks and sound effects are included in all the subscription plan.
How many audio tracks can I download?
With a Subscription (Creator, Pro or Business Plan), you can download up to 99 tracks per month.
Each main track and its variations are counted separately—for example, the MTG Bounce and Battle FULL Loop comes with 7 submixes, so it will be counted as 8 tracks in total. Our download limit ensures a carefully curated, high-quality selection while supporting the artists behind every sound. It maintains a copyright-safe, worry-free experience and encourages intentional creativity, helping you find the perfect sounds for your project.
