Frequently Asked Questions
Can I still use SoundCloud for free after canceling Go+?
Yes, SoundCloud has a generous free tier. You can stream music, discover artists, and create playlists. You will just see ads and lose offline listening and high-quality audio.

Go removes ads and adds offline listening. Go+ includes everything in Go plus high-quality audio and access to the full catalog, including major label releases not available on the free tier.
