How do I upgrade my BandLab Membership plan? 

To upgrade your BandLab Membership plan, please use the platform where you originally purchased your subscription. The mechanics to upgrade may vary depending on the payment platform associated with your current subscription.

Upgrading from Pro to Max Upgrading from Monthly to Annual

If you are currently on a Monthly or Annual Pro plan and want to switch to the Annual Max plan, use the link below to seamlessly update your subscription.
Upgrade to Max Annual

  • Apple App Store (iOS): Your Max Plan will start immediately. Apple will automatically refund you for any unused days remaining on your current Pro Plan.
  • Google Play Store (Android): Your Max Plan will start immediately. Your unused Pro Plan days will be converted into extra Max Plan days, so your renewal date will be pushed forward accordingly.
  • Web (Paddle): Your Max Plan will start immediately. You'll only be charged a prorated amount (the price difference for the remaining days on your current billing cycle).

Note

  • The Monthly Max Plan is currently unavailable for purchase or upgrade. 
  • When upgrading, you must use the same payment method as your original subscription.
How do I ensure I'm managing the subscription for the right account? 

Please select your payment platform below to ensure you are using the correct account:

Apple App Store Google Play Store
  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Tap your name (Apple ID) at the very top of the screen.
  3. Your active Apple ID email will be listed right under your name.
  4. Tap Subscriptions.
  5. If your subscription is listed here, you are logged into the correct account. 
  6. If this portion is empty or the expiry date doesn't match, you need to switch accounts.
How do I request a refund for my purchase?

While we generally maintain a no-refund policy, we understand that unique situations may pop up! Under certain circumstances, we are more than happy to make exceptions. Kindly check out our Refund policy for more information.

Why do I see "All existing subscriptions should be inactive" when subscribing?

You can't purchase a new subscription while an existing subscription is active. This helps prevent duplicate subscriptions and charges.

To resolve this issue, update your payment method or cancel your current subscription. After cancellation, it may take up to 60 days for Apple or Google to mark the subscription as expired.

If you're still seeing this message after resolving a payment issue, please allow some time for the update to process. The notification will disappear once the store syncs your payment with our system.

Why isn't the service I paid for activated?

If your BandLab Membership or Boost services are not active after a successful payment, please submit a request to our Support Team here.
