Each purchase includes a license certificate, proving your legal right to use the music without copyright issues.

Patreon / BuyMeCoffee Membership – [Patreon](https://www.patreon.com/c/soundplusua) / BuyMeCoffee  
Ideal for content creators who regularly post on platforms like YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and more. Membership allows unlimited publishing across social and commercial projects, and includes a license certificate confirming your rights. (BuyMeCoffee support will be available soon.)

Question 24

What is the difference between a Membership and a License?

Accepted Answer

Membership – With an active membership on [Patreon](https://www.patreon.com/c/soundplusua) or BuyMeCoffee, you can use all of our music during the entire period of your membership. Even if your membership ends later, all videos and projects published while you were a member will remain safe and unaffected.

License – A [license](https://cutt.ly/FBmoiob) is purchased for a specific track (or tracks) and grants you the right to use it according to the license terms, usually forever. Licenses can also be tailored for different purposes such as films, TV, radio, video games, apps, and other commercial projects. This makes licenses the best option when you need official, long-term rights for professional or large-scale use.

Question 25

Question 26

What happens if I cancel my Membership?

Accepted Answer

If you cancel your Membership, all videos and projects published while your membership was active will **remain covered and whitelisted**. Cancelling will only affect new uploads made after your membership ends. Past content is safe and will not lose its rights.
