What are the SoundCloud plans for artists?

For artists, SoundCloud now offers Basic, Artist and Artist Pro plans.

Our Artist subscription, which is positioned between our Basic and Artist Pro plans, is currently only available in select territories. 

Our Basic plan gives you limited access to SoundCloud’s artist features. Artist Pro is the plan for established artists with big communities who need audience tools and insights. Read more about the new Artist plan below and find a detailed summary of our creator offerings here.

What's included in an Artist subscription?

If you’re a creator experimenting with your sound and discovering your fanbase, our Artist plan provides the advanced tools and features to boost your music, expand your reach, and elevate your career. 

This plan helps you get heard, find your audience, distribute your music, and start earning from your music. Artist subscribers have access to:

• 3 hour limit of upload time
• 3 track replacements per month (keeping your stats)
• 2 spotlighted tracks per month
• 2 distributed and monetized tracks per month
• 1 mastering credit per month

As an Artist subscriber, you’ll automatically receive monthly credits for these features which reset every 30 days. These credits are redeemed automatically when spotlighting your tracks, or when you distribute, monetize, master, or replace your tracks.

Upgrades and downgrades between Artist and Artist Pro plans are possible, via your 'Subscriptions' tab, using a computer. Any changes will be clearly communicated during the change process and will be applied to future renewals. If you are having issues, please reach out to our support team via our chatbot, so we can help.  

How do Artist credits work, and when do they reset?

Artist subscribers receive new credits every month based on their initial purchase date. These credits do not carry over and will reset at the start of each new month. 

We don't have a specific place to check your remaining credits at the moment. However, if you run out while using your credits, we'll notify you. To find out when your credits reset, you can refer to your original sign-up date in your subscription settings here.
