How to cancel your Soundiiz subscription and keep your playlists intact
What Soundiiz is and why you might cancel
Soundiiz is a cross-platform playlist management tool that moves your music data between streaming services including Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon Music and more than 100 others. Unlike Spotify or Apple Music, Soundiiz doesn't host or play music itself-it synchronises your playlists, favourites and metadata across platforms and enables ongoing syncs between services.
The service operates on a freemium model: a free tier with limited transfers, plus Premium and Creator paid plans. Most users cancel because they've finished migrating their playlists, no longer need automatic syncing, or discover that the 7-day sync history window doesn't match their workflow. At Yafee, we've helped thousands of consumers navigate subscription cancellations, and understanding your cancellation rights under Australian consumer law before you act prevents unnecessary charges and confusion.
Your consumer rights under australian law
When you cancel a subscription in Australia, you benefit from protections under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL), administered by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC). These protections guarantee you the right to cancel at any time, the right to a clear cancellation process, and the right to a refund for services not yet provided if you cancel before your next billing date.
Soundiiz must not charge you after you submit a valid cancellation request. If the company continues billing after you've cancelled, that constitutes an unfair contract term and breach of the ACL. Yafee recommends keeping your cancellation confirmation email and billing records as proof of your cancellation date-this evidence is essential if you need to dispute a charge with your bank or lodge a complaint with the ACCC.
Your legal position
You have an unconditional right to cancel your Soundiiz subscription at any time. You do not need to provide a reason. If you cancel before your renewal date, Soundiiz must not charge you again. If they do, you can request a refund from your payment provider or file a complaint with the ACCC. The company must also provide you with clear, immediate written confirmation of your cancellation-Soundiiz sends this via email.

When to cancel to avoid unnecessary charges
Cancel immediately if you're certain you won't use paid features before your next renewal date. Soundiiz requires cancellation at least 72 hours before your renewal date to guarantee it's processed in time. If you miss this window, you'll be charged for another full cycle, but you can then request a refund within 14 days of the charge. At Yafee, we advise cancelling as soon as you decide-waiting increases the risk of accidental double charges.
How to cancel your Soundiiz subscription
Soundiiz offers one cancellation method through your account dashboard-follow these steps precisely to ensure your cancellation is processed and confirmed.
Step 1: log into your Soundiiz account
Visit the Soundiiz website and enter your email address and password. If you've forgotten your password, click "Forgot password" and follow the reset link sent to your email before proceeding.
- Do not create a new account if you already have one-multiple accounts delay cancellation and risk duplicate charges.
- Log in on desktop or mobile; the cancellation process is identical on both.
Step 2: navigate to your account settings and plan
Click your profile icon (usually top-right corner) or open the Settings menu. Look for a "Plan", "Subscription", "Billing" or "Account" option.
- Select "Plan" or "Subscription" from the dropdown.
- Your current plan (Free, Premium or Creator) and next renewal date should now display.
Step 3: click the cancel subscription button
Locate and click the button labelled "Cancel subscription", "Downgrade plan" or "End subscription"-the exact label varies but the function is identical. Soundiiz may ask why you're cancelling; this feedback is optional and does not affect your cancellation.
Step 4: confirm your cancellation
Click "Yes, cancel my subscription" or "Confirm cancellation" when prompted. Soundiiz will display a confirmation message on screen and send a confirmation email to your registered email address within minutes.
- If you do not receive a confirmation email within 5 minutes, check your spam folder.
- Save this email-it's your proof of cancellation and your legal protection against future charges.
Step 5: verify the cancellation in your account
Log back into your Soundiiz account and navigate to your Plan section again. Your account should now show "Free" plan or display "Cancellation pending-your access ends on [date]". If your account still shows an active paid plan, contact Soundiiz support immediately with your confirmation email.
What happens after you cancel
Cancellation is immediate, but your premium access continues until the end of your current billing cycle at no additional cost. You keep this access as a courtesy-Soundiiz does not prorate refunds for the remainder of your cycle.
Your playlists and syncs after cancellation
Your transferred playlists remain in your destination services (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, etc.) permanently-they do not disappear when you cancel. However, active syncs stop at the end of your billing cycle. If you had set up automatic syncing between platforms, those syncs will cease. Any playlists you manually transferred using Soundiiz remain intact across all services.
Your free plan after cancellation
You can continue using Soundiiz's free tier indefinitely. The free plan allows up to 200 tracks per playlist transfer and one active sync, which is sufficient for occasional playlist management. You'll retain access to your account history and transfer records unless you actively delete your account.
Reactivating your subscription
You can reactivate a paid plan at any time by returning to Settings → Plan and selecting Premium or Creator. Soundiiz will not charge you retroactively for the cancelled period. Your new billing cycle begins when you reactivate.
Refunds and payment disputes
Soundiiz's standard policy is no refunds for cancelled subscriptions; however, Australian consumer law guarantees you a refund for services not yet provided if you cancel before your next billing date.
Requesting a refund from Soundiiz
Contact Soundiiz support via email (check their website for the current support address) within 14 days of the charge you wish to dispute. Include your confirmation email, the date of cancellation, your billing period, and the charge amount. Request a refund for any portion of your paid cycle you did not use after cancellation.
- Soundiiz typically responds within 5-10 business days.
- If they refuse or delay, you have the right to escalate under the ACL.
Disputing the charge with your bank
If Soundiiz refuses your refund request or does not respond within 14 days, contact your bank or credit card provider and request a chargeback or dispute. Provide your cancellation confirmation email, billing records and the date of your refund request to Soundiiz. Your bank will investigate and may refund the disputed amount while the dispute is resolved.
Lodging a complaint with the ACCC
If Soundiiz continues to charge you after cancellation or refuses a legitimate refund, lodge a complaint with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) via their website (accc.gov.au). The ACCC has enforcement power and can compel refunds. Include your cancellation confirmation, all billing statements, and copies of your communications with Soundiiz. At Yafee, we've observed that the mere act of filing an ACCC complaint often prompts swift resolution.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling
Cancelling a subscription should be straightforward-most issues arise from preventable oversights. Below are the pitfalls Yafee has identified, and how to sidestep them.
Mistake 1: cancelling too close to your renewal date
If you cancel fewer than 72 hours before your renewal date, Soundiiz may not process the cancellation in time, and you'll be charged for another cycle. Cancel at least 4 days before your next billing date to guarantee processing. Check your renewal date in Settings → Plan and set a phone reminder 5 days before.
Mistake 2: not saving your cancellation confirmation
Soundiiz sends a confirmation email immediately after cancellation. If you delete this email, you have no proof of your cancellation date if a dispute arises. Forward the confirmation email to yourself or save it as a PDF. This document is your legal protection against fraudulent post-cancellation charges.
Mistake 3: creating a second account instead of cancelling the first
Some users think they can avoid cancellation by simply creating a new account. This leaves your original paid subscription active and billing you monthly. Always cancel your existing subscription before moving to a new account. Log into your original account, cancel it, and only then create a replacement account if needed.
Mistake 4: assuming your playlists will disappear
Your manually transferred playlists remain in Spotify, Apple Music and other services after cancellation-they are not deleted. Soundiiz does not "own" these playlists; they exist in your streaming accounts. Cancel without fear of losing your music.
Mistake 5: ignoring a post-cancellation charge
If you notice a charge on your statement after cancellation, contact Soundiiz immediately. Do not assume it's an error or delay. The faster you act, the faster you can obtain a refund or escalate to your bank. Keep all cancellation and refund correspondence.

Reviews and user experiences
Soundiiz users report mixed experiences with cancellation. Positive reviews highlight the simplicity of the in-app cancellation process and prompt confirmation emails. Negative reviews centre on unexpected charges after cancellation and slow refund responses from support. The 4.5-star rating reflects these mixed outcomes. Users who cancel well in advance and save their confirmation email report smooth experiences; those who cancel near their renewal date or fail to document their request face delays.
At Yafee, we've found that the most successful cancellations occur when users allow at least one week between their cancellation and renewal date. This buffer eliminates processing delays and gives you time to verify your account status before the final charge is processed.
Next steps and final checklist
Cancelling your Soundiiz subscription is a two-minute process if you follow the steps above. Your playlists survive cancellation, your legal rights are protected under Australian law, and you can reactivate your account anytime. Document your cancellation, monitor your next billing statement, and contact Soundiiz or your bank immediately if an unexpected charge appears.
Yafee has helped thousands of consumers cancel subscriptions safely and dispute unfair charges. If you encounter resistance from Soundiiz after following these steps, escalate to the ACCC-your rights under Australian consumer law are absolute. Remember: you have an unconditional right to cancel, and Yafee stands behind your decision every step of the way.
