Common Questions

Do I need a separate license each time I use a track?

Standard License A allows you to use the same track in multiple videos, presentations, or podcasts for a project or production. Separate licenses are required for broadcast, advertising, large-scale/commercial projects, or distribution beyond the copy limit.

Do I receive an invoice/receipt?

Yes — an invoice is emailed to the address you registered with immediately after purchase.

Do credits expire?

No, your credits stay in your account until you use them.
