Frequently Asked Questions

Contact us at support@sfxengine.com

How much does SFX Engine cost?+

Starter is $10 a month for 500 credits, Creator is $25 for 4,000 and Pro is $90 for 15,000. Paying yearly takes 20% off ($8, $20 and $72 a month). The first month of a monthly Creator or Pro plan is half price.

How many sound effects can I make?+

Each sound effect costs 3 credits, so Starter makes about 166 a month, Creator about 1,333 and Pro 5,000. Every take counts as one sound.

Is there a free plan?+

Not an ongoing one, but you can try it free: new accounts get 15 credits (about 5 sound effects) with no card needed. You can generate and listen in the app; downloading your sounds and using them commercially need a paid plan. Browsing and downloading sounds from the public library is always free.

Can I use the sounds in commercial projects?+

Yes. Everything you make on any plan is royalty-free, so you can use it in games, videos, ads, podcasts and apps without licensing fees.

Do unused credits roll over?+

At each renewal your balance is topped back up to your plan's amount. Unused credits don't stack on top of it.

Can I cancel anytime?+

Yes. Cancel from the billing page in your account settings and you won't be charged again.

What if I need more credits or a custom plan?+

Email support@sfxengine.com and tell us what you're making. We set up custom plans for studios and teams.
