Cancel TuneCore: Step-by-Step Guide
What is TuneCore
Overview
TuneCore is a digital music distribution service that helps independent artists upload music to streaming stores and online retailers worldwide.
It offers per-release pricing or annual unlimited plans and tools for royalties, analytics, and publishing administration.
Who uses TuneCore
Independent musicians, labels, and managers use TuneCore to distribute singles, albums, and ringtones without a label intermediary.
Plans range from one-off release payments to subscription plans with unlimited releases and extra features.
How to cancel TuneCore
Cancel via TuneCore web dashboard
- Log in to your TuneCore account at the dashboard.
- Go to Manage Subscriptions.
- Choose either “Takedown All Stores” for immediate removal, or “Cancel Renewal” to let releases stay until the end of the current term.
- Submit the request and confirm any prompts.
- Request must be made before the renewal date to avoid being charged for the next term.
If you cannot find the option or the dashboard loops
- Users report missing or hard-to-find cancellation buttons and AI chat loops in support.
- If the dashboard doesn't work, open a support ticket using the “Other” category and explicitly request cancellation or deletion.
- Keep screenshots of the dashboard and conversation as evidence if needed.
What happens when you cancel
Immediate vs end-of-term removal
If you selected “Takedown All Stores” TuneCore will request immediate removal of your releases from stores.
Takedowns typically take 2 - 3 business days but can take up to three weeks at some stores.
Account access and data
If you cancel renewal releases will remain available until the paid term ends; analytics and account access are usually retained.
Some account features or payouts may be affected by outstanding balances or store processing delays.
Will I get a refund?
TuneCore refund policy
TuneCore’s stated policy is that payments are final and refunds are unlikely once a renewal has occurred.
If you fail to cancel before the renewal date, TuneCore generally will not refund the payment for that cycle.
Exceptions and platform purchases
- Subscriptions purchased via the Apple App Store must use Apple’s “Report a Problem” system for refund requests.
- Subscriptions purchased via Google Play must use Google Play’s “Request a Refund” flow for refund requests.
- As a local remedy in Nigeria, consider contacting your bank for a chargeback if you believe the charge is unfair or unauthorized.

Your consumer rights in Nigeria
Legal framework
Nigerian digital consumers are protected under the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Act (FCCPA) 2018.
The law requires clear contract terms, transparency on cancellation and refund policies, and prohibits unfair practices.
Practical remedies
- You may file complaints with the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) if terms are misleading or unfair.
- Enforcement against foreign-based digital services may be limited; platform remedies or bank chargebacks are often faster.
- If you purchased via Apple or Google, use their refund processes as a primary remedy before raising a bank dispute.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Many reviewers praise TuneCore for a user-friendly interface, straightforward distribution, and useful analytics for beginners.
Higher-tier plans and some Trustpilot reviews note helpful and professional support responses.
Negative feedback
Some users report slow or unhelpful customer service and difficulty cancelling subscriptions or removing payment methods.
Reddit reports describe chatbot loops, missing cancel buttons, and in some cases having to contact banks to stop charges.
Documentation checklist
Before contacting support
- Account email and username used for the TuneCore account.
- Transaction IDs, payment receipts, and renewal date for the charge in question.
- Screenshots of the Manage Subscriptions page and any error messages or missing buttons.
When filing complaints or chargebacks
- Support ticket numbers, dates of communication, and agent responses.
- Proof of attempted cancellation before renewal (timestamps, screenshots).
- Bank statement entries showing the charge you want disputed.
Common mistakes
Waiting until the renewal date
A frequent mistake is attempting to cancel on or after the renewal date; cancellations must be requested before renewal to avoid current-cycle charges.
If you cancel on/after renewal the payment for that cycle usually remains non-refundable and cancellation applies to the next cycle.
Relying only on the AI chat or assuming removal is instant
Some users rely on the chatbot and think the process completed when it did not; always confirm via a support ticket or confirmation email.
Also, expect takedowns to take several days or weeks at some stores - do not assume immediate disappearance.
