Billing questions
- Can I subscribe to Pro today?
- Not yet. Billing isn't built, so this page has no checkout and doesn't ask for your email. Pro costs $6 a month or $49 a year when it launches.
- Do I pay for the audio?
- No. The audio is never sold, and every track stays free to everyone under its license. A subscription pays for the software around the tracks, such as collections and higher limits.
- Who will handle payment and tax?
- Paddle will process payments as the merchant of record, so Paddle also calculates and collects sales tax and VAT.
- How will I cancel?
- You will cancel from a Manage billing link in your account, which opens Paddle's customer portal. There you can also change your card.
- What happens when Pro ends?
- Your first collection stays editable. Extra collections stay read-only, and you can still view and export them.
- Is there a Team plan?
- Team is coming soon. It starts with shared collections and roles. The price is to be announced.
