Can I get a refund from Emrald Studio?

Emrald's public pages don't publish a fixed refund window for subscription charges — refunds are handled case-by-case by emailing **contact@emraldstudio.com**. Realistic wins: an accidental renewal you cancel the same day, an unused month after the trial, or a duplicate charge. UK/EU shoppers have additional statutory rights (see the regional block below). Preset shop downloads that have already been accessed are generally treated as consumed digital goods.

How do I cancel before the 3-day trial ends?

Open **Mon compte → Paiement → Gérer mon abonnement** any time before your trial's third day and hit cancel in the Stripe portal — you'll keep access until the trial expires and won't be charged. Don't wait until the last hour: Stripe processes the renewal at the exact minute you subscribed, and time-zone drift catches people out. If you can't reach the portal, email contact@emraldstudio.com the same day.

Will I lose my voice models and covers if I cancel?

Cancelling the Emrald AI subscription stops future credits and paid features like voice-model training, GPU priority and lossless export. Your uploaded RVC voices, cover history in **Mes Covers**, and any presets bought from the shop (which use a separate one-off licence) stay in your account library — Emrald explicitly lets you 're-télécharge n'importe quelle version à tout moment' for purchased presets. Community voice models remain browsable.

What if Emrald Studio doesn't reply to my cancellation email?

Emrald advertises a 24-business-hour response window. If day 2 passes with no reply: (1) cancel yourself in the Stripe portal via **Gérer mon abonnement** so no more charges land; (2) re-send with subject 'Second request — cancel & refund [subscription ID]'; (3) if a charge has already been taken and refund is refused, dispute it with your card issuer as a subscription you cancelled. UK Section 75 and EU chargeback rights apply if you paid by credit card.

Is Emrald Studio legit / safe to subscribe to?

Emrald Studio is a small independent producer-tools brand (their homepage cites 12K+ presets sold, 2.3K producers, 4.9★ average rating). Payments run through Stripe, which handles the card details — Emrald never sees your PAN. There isn't yet a Trustpilot page or wide Reddit footprint, so due-diligence-wise: keep the 3-day trial confirmation email, screenshot the cancel step, and pay by credit card so Section 75 (UK) or chargeback (US/EU) is available if a dispute arises.

Was I charged after cancelling my Emrald AI subscription?

If Emrald billed you after you clicked cancel, the most likely cause is that the cancellation was scheduled for the end of the period (Stripe's default) and a queued renewal hit first, or the cancel step in the Stripe portal wasn't confirmed. Check **Factures abonnement** in your account for the exact invoice, then email contact@emraldstudio.com with the invoice PDF and a screenshot of your cancel confirmation asking for a refund of that single cycle.

Send this body

Hi Emrald Studio team,

I'm writing to request a refund for my recent Emrald Studio subscription charge.

Under applicable consumer-protection law (the UK Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, EU Directive 2011/83/EU, or US state auto-renewal laws — whichever applies in my jurisdiction), I'm exercising my right to cancel and to recover the payment in full. Please confirm by reply that the cancellation has taken effect and that the refund will be processed to my original payment method.

If your policy allows a pro-rata refund for any unused service, I'd appreciate that being applied here.

Best,
[your name]

Wait 7-14 days, then escalate
If you haven’t heard back in 14 days, see “If they refuse” below — Section 75 is the next stop.

Refund FAQ for Emrald Studio

Yes. Every Emrald AI plan (Basic, Creator, Studio Pro) starts with a **3-day free trial, then billed monthly — cancel anytime**, per the pricing page. The trial auto-converts to a paid month if you don't cancel before day 3, so set a reminder for hour 71. Cancelling inside the trial keeps access until the trial's last day and blocks the upcoming charge.
