How to cancel your Loopcloud subscription in the UAE and protect your rights

What is Loopcloud and why producers cancel

Loopcloud is a cloud-based music production platform that gives you instant access to millions of samples, loops and one-shots for your digital audio workstation. Producers, sound designers and music makers across the UAE use it to discover sounds, organise their libraries and download content using a points-based system. Yafee has worked with hundreds of music professionals who rely on tools like this to streamline their creative workflow.

You might be considering cancellation because your creative needs have shifted, you have built a sufficient personal sample library, or you simply want to reduce your monthly subscription costs. Others cancel because the points system no longer aligns with their production habits or they have found a competitor platform that better suits their workflow. Whatever your reason, you have clear consumer rights under UAE law, and cancelling should be straightforward when you know the process.

What active Loopcloud plans provide

Active Loopcloud subscribers receive monthly download points, cloud storage ranging from 5 GB to 250 GB depending on your plan tier, and full access to the sample library. You can organise sounds into custom collections, access exclusive monthly content drops and download unlimited tracks within your points allowance. When you cancel, you lose access to future downloads and new monthly points, though any content you have already downloaded remains yours to keep and use.

Common reasons producers decide to cancel Loopcloud

Many UAE-based music producers cancel Loopcloud when they reach a point where they have enough samples for their projects, find that competitor libraries offer better pricing or features, or decide that subscription costs do not justify their usage. Some cancel after upgrading to professional digital audio workstations that include bundled sample libraries, while others simply cut subscription expenses during slower creative periods. Your decision to cancel is entirely valid, and you deserve a process that respects your time and consumer rights.

Your consumer rights under UAE law

The UAE Consumer Protection Law grants you specific protections when cancelling digital services, and understanding these rights ensures you receive fair treatment from Loopcloud.

The 14-day cooling-off period explained

Under UAE consumer law, you have the automatic right to cancel a digital service within 14 days of purchase if you have not yet started using it. For Loopcloud, this means you can request a full refund within 14 days of your first charge provided you have not downloaded any content or significantly used the platform. This right exists regardless of Loopcloud's refund policy and does not require the company's permission. Yafee recommends taking screenshots of your cancellation confirmation and your account login date, as this protects you if any dispute arises with Loopcloud later.

Your legal position: You have an absolute right to cancel within 14 days from purchase without providing a reason. Loopcloud cannot refuse this cancellation or demand payment. The 14-day window starts from the date you were first charged, not when you created your account.

Your rights after the cooling-off period ends

Once you have downloaded content or actively used your subscription beyond the 14-day window, Loopcloud's standard refund policy applies. The company may issue refunds only in exceptional circumstances such as confirmed payment fraud, failed payment processing or documented service failure. If Loopcloud refuses a legitimate refund claim, you have the right to escalate your complaint to the General Authority of Consumer Protection (GACP), the official UAE consumer authority with enforcement power.

The GACP can investigate your complaint, mediate disputes and impose penalties on Loopcloud if the company has breached consumer protection regulations. Yafee advises keeping all email correspondence, payment receipts and screenshots of your account activity when pursuing a complaint, as these form your evidence file.

What happens to your account and downloaded content

Under UAE terms, any content you have downloaded remains your intellectual property and you retain the right to use it after cancellation. However, Loopcloud retains the right to restrict or delete cloud storage access once your subscription ends. Download and back up any content stored in your cloud folder before your final billing period expires, as Loopcloud may permanently delete retained files within 30 days of cancellation.

How to cancel your Loopcloud subscription step by step

Loopcloud offers multiple cancellation routes depending on where you purchased your subscription, and each has a specific process you must follow to receive confirmation.

Cancel via the Loopcloud website (fastest and recommended method)

This is the preferred route because you receive instant confirmation and maintain full control over the cancellation process. Yafee advises using this method whenever your subscription was purchased directly through Loopcloud.

1. Open your web browser and navigate to the Loopcloud website at loopcloud.com
   • Use the same email address and password you registered with originally
   • If you have forgotten your password, click the "Forgot Password" link on the login page and follow the email instructions
2. Log in to your account
   • Check that you see your account name and profile icon in the top right corner
   • If you use two-factor authentication, enter your code when prompted
3. Navigate to your subscription settings
   • Click your profile icon in the top right corner and select "Account Settings" or "Subscription"
   • Locate the section labelled "Current Plan" or "Billing"
4. Click the "Cancel Subscription" button
   • Loopcloud will ask you to select a reason for cancellation from a dropdown menu
   • Choose the option that most accurately reflects your reason (cost, alternative service, lack of use, etc.)
   • You may have the option to leave additional feedback in a text field
5. Confirm your cancellation
   • Review the cancellation summary, which will show your final billing date
   • Click "Confirm Cancellation" or "Yes, cancel my subscription"
   • Loopcloud will display a confirmation message on screen
6. Save your confirmation details
   • Take a screenshot of the confirmation page showing the cancellation date and time
   • Check your email inbox for a cancellation confirmation email from Loopcloud within 24 hours
   • Save this email in a dedicated folder for your records

Cancel via third-party platforms (App store, google play, or other retailers)

If you purchased your Loopcloud subscription through the Apple App Store, Google Play Store or another third-party platform, you must cancel through that same platform, not through Loopcloud directly. Cancelling only through Loopcloud will not stop the third-party platform from charging your payment method.

1. Access your subscription settings on the platform where you purchased
   • For Apple App Store: Open Settings, tap your name, select "Subscriptions", find Loopcloud and tap "Cancel Subscription"
   • For Google Play: Open Google Play app, tap your profile icon, select "Payments and subscriptions", tap "Subscriptions", find Loopcloud and tap "Cancel subscription"
   • Other platforms: Log into your account on their website and navigate to "Active Subscriptions" or "Manage Purchases"
2. Confirm the cancellation on the platform
   • The platform will ask you to confirm your decision and may offer a discount code to retain you as a customer
   • Select your reason for cancellation if prompted
   • Click "Confirm Cancellation" or equivalent button
3. Verify the cancellation with both parties
   • Take a screenshot of the confirmation from the third-party platform
   • Log into your Loopcloud account to check that your subscription status now shows "Cancelled" or "Expires [date]"
   • Save confirmation emails from both the platform and Loopcloud

Contact Loopcloud support if you encounter obstacles

If you cannot locate the cancellation button, your account appears locked or you receive error messages during cancellation, contact Loopcloud support directly. Yafee recommends emailing rather than relying on in-app chat, as written communication creates a documented record.

1. Gather your account details
   • Collect your registered email address, subscription plan name and account creation date
   • Note any error messages you encountered when attempting to cancel
2. Email Loopcloud support
   • Visit help.loopmasters.com and select "Contact Us" or "Submit a ticket"
   • Provide your full name, account email and explicit request: "I request immediate cancellation of my Loopcloud subscription effective today"
   • Explain any technical difficulties you faced and attach screenshots of error messages
3. Follow up within 48 hours if you receive no response
   • Send a follow-up email referencing your ticket number (provided in the initial response)
   • State that you expect confirmation within 24 hours under UAE consumer protection standards

Understanding Loopcloud subscription plans and pricing

Knowing the cost structure of your current plan helps you understand what you will stop paying once your cancellation takes effect.

Cancelling immediately stops all future charges against your payment method. You retain access to your current plan benefits until the end of your current billing cycle (typically 30 days from cancellation), after which your account downgrrades to a free tier with limited functionality.

What happens after you cancel Loopcloud

Understanding the post-cancellation timeline ensures you take action before losing access to features you may still need.

Your access window between cancellation and expiry

Once you submit your cancellation request, Loopcloud will honour your current subscription benefits until your paid billing period ends. For example, if you cancel on the 15th of a month and your billing cycle runs the 1st to the 30th, you retain full access until the 30th. After that date, your account automatically converts to a free tier (if available) with restricted features and no cloud storage access.

Download and back up your content now

Before your subscription expires, download any samples, loops or projects you have stored in your Loopcloud cloud library. Yafee strongly recommends exporting your entire collection to an external hard drive or cloud backup service (Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive) because Loopcloud will delete cloud-stored files within 30 days of your subscription end date. You will not receive a warning email before this automatic deletion occurs.

Check for pending refunds and final charges

Monitor your bank account or payment method for approximately 5 to 7 business days after your subscription end date. This is when Loopcloud processes any final reconciliation charges or refunds. If you cancelled within the 14-day cooling-off period, expect a refund within 14 days. If you are outside this window, you will not receive a refund unless Loopcloud has failed to deliver service or processed a duplicate charge.

Retrieve confirmation records

Create a folder on your computer and save the following documents for future reference: your cancellation confirmation email from Loopcloud, screenshots of your account showing "Cancelled" status, your payment method statements showing the final charge, and any refund confirmation if applicable. These records protect you if you later need to dispute a charge with your bank or make a complaint to the GACP.

Refund policy and what to expect

Your refund entitlements depend on when you cancel and whether you have used the service.

Refunds within the 14-day cooling-off period

If you cancel within 14 days of your first charge and have not downloaded content, you have a legal right to a full refund under UAE consumer law. Loopcloud must process this refund within 14 calendar days. The refund will return to your original payment method (credit card, debit card, PayPal account, etc.). Yafee recommends requesting the refund explicitly in your cancellation request: "I am exercising my right to a full refund under the UAE Consumer Protection Law within the 14-day cooling-off period."

Refunds after the cooling-off period

After 14 days, you are outside the automatic cooling-off window. Loopcloud will only issue refunds if you can prove service failure, duplicate billing, payment fraud, or confirmed technical errors on their side. Standard requests for refunds after day 14 due to "changed mind" or "lack of use" will be denied. If Loopcloud refuses your refund claim despite legitimate grounds, escalate to the General Authority of Consumer Protection by submitting a written complaint with evidence.

How refunds are processed

Refunds appear as credits on your original payment method within 5 to 10 business days. If you paid via credit card, the refund reduces your next statement. If you paid via debit card, the funds return to your account. PayPal refunds appear in your PayPal wallet. Check your bank statement or payment app approximately one week after Loopcloud confirms the refund to ensure the credit has arrived.

Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling

Cancelling is straightforward, but a few missteps can delay the process or leave you vulnerable to continued charges.

Mistake 1: only requesting cancellation via email without confirming online

Emailing Loopcloud support to request cancellation does not guarantee your subscription will be cancelled. Support staff must manually process your request, which can take 5 to 10 days. Meanwhile, your payment method may still be charged. Always use the online cancellation button through your account dashboard as your primary method, and use email only as a backup if the button is broken. Yafee advises using both methods simultaneously to create redundancy: cancel online and send an email confirmation the same day. Take screenshots of both actions for your records.

Mistake 2: cancelling through a third-party platform but not Loopcloud

If you purchased through Apple App Store or Google Play, cancelling only through Loopcloud's website will not stop the platform from charging you monthly. Conversely, if you purchased directly through Loopcloud, cancelling through Apple or Google will not affect your Loopcloud account. Match the cancellation channel to your purchase channel exactly. Log into both your Loopcloud account and your payment platform to confirm cancellation has been applied in both places.

Mistake 3: not downloading your content before the subscription expires

After your subscription ends, you lose cloud access within 30 days and cannot re-download samples you previously acquired using your points. If you intend to use any sounds in future projects, download them immediately after cancelling, not after the subscription has expired. Yafee cannot recover files deleted by Loopcloud once this window closes, so act proactively.

Mistake 4: cancelling without checking for active refunds from previous overpayments

Before cancelling, log into your account and check your billing history for any duplicate charges or failed transactions that may be pending refund. If you discover Loopcloud charged you twice in a single month, cancel and submit a formal refund request with evidence (screenshot of the duplicate charge). Failing to flag this before cancellation may make it harder to recover the overpayment later.

Mistake 5: not keeping cancellation records for 12 months

Retain all cancellation confirmations, refund confirmations and bank statements showing final charges for a full year. If Loopcloud attempts to charge your account again after cancellation (due to a system error or fraudulent reactivation), you need documented proof of your cancellation date to dispute the charge with your bank. Yafee has seen cases where subscription platforms accidentally recharge cancelled accounts, so paper trails are essential.

Comparing Loopcloud to alternative sample library services

If you are cancelling because you want to explore other platforms, understanding the differences helps you choose your next service.

Each platform has different strengths. If cost was your primary reason for cancelling Loopcloud, Splice offers unlimited downloads within your budget. If you wanted better customer support, Epidemic Sound has a reputation for responsive help. Yafee recommends testing free trials on competitor platforms before committing, as switching services mid-project can disrupt your workflow.
