Payment in brief
Is the player really free?
Yes. Playback, all the instruments, practice, full-screen mode and video recording are free forever.
How does the editor trial work?
Create an account, choose a plan and add a card. All features open at once. Before you start you see the date and amount of the first charge, and three days ahead we send a reminder. You can cancel the subscription in the “My apps” section before that date, and nothing will be charged. The trial is given once per account.
Which is better: a one-time purchase or a subscription?
A subscription is handy when you need the editor for a few months: for a project or a school term. A one-time purchase stays with you forever, with all updates, whatever the versions.
What does the price depend on?
On the payer’s country: different countries have different prices and currencies. You see the final amount on the checkout page before paying.
What happens if I cancel the subscription?
The editor works until the end of the paid period and then shows only a window offering to renew. Your projects and finished .accplay files stay yours: the player opens them as before.
Can I use the editor offline?
Yes, for a limited time: the app checks the subscription with the site every few days and works offline for up to seven days after the last check. After that a connection is needed.
What is the piece library and how much does it cost?
It is a closed collection of pieces that editor users submitted and we approved; they are played on the site in the web player. The library is included in the editor subscription, after a one-time purchase of the editor it is free for 12 months, and after that it is available through a separate monthly subscription. While the library has few pieces, it is open to everyone who signs in to the site. Details are in the documentation.
Can I get a refund?
Refunds are available for 30 days with no reason needed; see the refund policy. Subscription payments go through LiqPay.
Are there discounts for schools and students?
Educational licenses for music schools and student discounts are planned. Write to us on the support page.
