Epidemic Sound-specific things to know

Epidemic Sound subscriptions can work differently depending on your plan or billing cycle. These tips cover common edge cases.

Quarterly billing is most common
Most Epidemic Sound subscriptions bill every three months. Check your billing date to avoid being charged for another quarter.
Downloads remain accessible
Music you've already downloaded and used in published content remains licensed even after cancellation, but you can't download new tracks.
Student discounts require verification
If you have a student plan, make sure your verification is current before cancelling to avoid any billing complications.

Before you cancel, keep this in mind

These details can affect your cancellation timing or whether it goes through properly.

1. Check who's billing you

Look at your credit card statement to see if you're being charged by Epidemic Sound directly or through an app store or third party.

2. Access continues until period ends

After cancelling, you'll still have full access to download music until your current billing period expires.

3. Deleting the app doesn't cancel

If you downloaded the Epidemic Sound mobile app, deleting it won't cancel your subscription. You need to cancel through your account settings.

Other options to consider

If cost is the issue, you might be able to downgrade to a cheaper plan instead of cancelling completely.

Epidemic Sound offers multiple pricing tiers with different usage limits and features. You might find a cheaper option that still meets your needs.

  • Personal plan - For individual creators
