Refund policy

Guitar Tricks refunds and money‑back guarantee

Guitar Tricks offers a 60‑day money‑back guarantee for qualifying website Full Access purchases and has distinct refund rules for Apple and Google Play subscriptions.

Check my refund options
60‑day guarantee for website subscriptions
The refund FAQ states that Guitar Tricks offers a 60‑Day Money Back Guarantee for users who are not satisfied and that users must cancel within 60 days of signing up for Full Access on the website in order to receive a refund. The Terms echo that the company will refund any payment made within 60 days of the payment date.support.guitartricks.comguitartricks.com
How to request a refund from Guitar Tricks
To use the guarantee for website or eligible Android purchases, users are directed to contact the billing department via a dedicated refund‑request link in the Help Center, providing identifying details such as account email and, for Android, the Google Play order ID.support.guitartricks.com
Android in‑app purchase refunds
For users who subscribed through Google Play on Android, Guitar Tricks indicates it can issue a refund for purchases within 60 days when the user supplies the Google Play order ID beginning with “GPA”; cancellation itself is still handled via the app or Google Play settings.support.guitartricks.comsupport.guitartricks.com
Apple iOS refunds controlled by Apple
For subscriptions purchased through the iOS app, Guitar Tricks explains that Apple controls 100% of the billing and that users seeking a refund must go through Apple’s own refund process; Guitar Tricks cannot directly refund these payments.support.guitartricks.comsupport.apple.com
Effect of cancellation on refund eligibility
Cancelling stops future renewals but doesn’t automatically trigger a refund; users generally need to both cancel and contact Guitar Tricks (or Apple/Google, for store‑billed subscriptions) within the applicable 60‑day or store‑specific window to request money back.guitartricks.comsupport.guitartricks.comsupport.google.com

For the most precise and current refund instructions, including any region‑specific variations, review Guitar Tricks’ official refund article and, if you purchased through an app store, the relevant Apple or Google Play refund help pages. View Guitar Tricks’ refund help

Membership types

How Guitar Tricks memberships and plans are structured

Guitar Tricks offers several ways to access its lessons, each affected differently when you cancel.

  • Full Access subscriptions

    The core paid product is a recurring Full Access subscription, offered on monthly and annual terms, which unlocks the full lesson library and tools while billing continues until cancelled.guitartricks.comguitartricks.com

  • Basic (free) membership

    Guitar Tricks also offers a free Basic Membership with limited lessons and tools; this does not renew for a fee and is separate from paid Full Access billing.guitartricks.com

  • In‑app subscriptions on iOS and Android

    The mobile apps support in‑app subscriptions billed through Apple’s App Store or Google Play; these are managed in your Apple or Google account rather than on GuitarTricks.com.support.guitartricks.complay.google.com

  • Lifetime courses and other store products

    Guitar Tricks sells one‑time “Lifetime Courses” and other products in its store; access to these is tied to your Guitar Tricks account rather than to an ongoing Full Access subscription.guitartricks.comguitartricks.com

  • Website subscribers can use the apps

    If you already have Full Access on GuitarTricks.com, you can sign into the iOS or Android apps with the same credentials without buying an extra in‑app subscription.support.guitartricks.com

Direct billing

How website billing, auto‑renewal, and cancellation work

If you subscribed on GuitarTricks.com, your billing relationship is directly with Guitar Tricks.

  • Automatic renewal by default

    Full Access website subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each subscription period, and the company charges the payment method on file until you cancel renewal.guitartricks.comsupport.guitartricks.com

  • Cancellation from your account

    The Help Center directs you to cancel by opening Billing & Settings from the user icon and using the Cancel Billing option, which leads through confirmation screens to stop billing.support.guitartricks.com

  • Alternative cancellation by contacting support

    The Terms of Service also say you may cancel automatic renewal at any time by contacting Guitar Tricks through the methods listed on its contact page, providing your account username or email; they state accounts are processed within two business days.guitartricks.com

  • Changes after cancelling billing

    Cancelling billing stops future renewals but doesn’t retroactively remove time you have already paid for; you normally keep Full Access until the end of the current paid period or trial, then lose paid‑only lessons and tools.guitartricks.comsupport.guitartricks.com

  • Pausing instead of cancelling (monthly only)

    On the cancellation screen, monthly subscribers may see an option to pause subscription billing instead of cancelling; the Help Center notes that annual subscriptions cannot be paused this way.support.guitartricks.com

Apple & Google

Apple App Store and Google Play billing specifics

In‑app subscriptions are controlled by Apple or Google, not by Guitar Tricks directly.

  • Apple controls iOS billing and refunds

    Guitar Tricks’ app support states that if you purchased Full Access through the iOS app, Apple “controls 100% of the billing” and you must cancel and request any refund through Apple’s subscription tools.support.guitartricks.com

  • Standard Apple cancellation path

    Apple’s official guide explains that to cancel an in‑app subscription you open Settings, tap your name, tap Subscriptions, select the subscription (such as Guitar Tricks), and tap Cancel Subscription.support.apple.com

  • Google Play subscriptions tied to your Google Account

    For Android users who subscribed via Google Play, Google’s Help Center notes that subscriptions recur until you unsubscribe, and you cancel from the Subscriptions section in Google Play using the Cancel subscription option.support.google.com

  • Guitar Tricks Android cancellations in app or Google Play

    Guitar Tricks’ app article explains that Android users can cancel from the app’s Account page and also manage auto‑renewal from their Google Play subscription settings, which lead back to the same Google subscription record.support.guitartricks.com

  • App store refunds follow store policies

    Guitar Tricks notes that it cannot issue refunds for iOS purchases and directs users to Apple for refunds, while for Android it can generally refund purchases within 60 days when provided with the Google Play order ID (starting with GPA).support.guitartricks.comsupport.guitartricks.com

Trials

Free trials, conversion, and how to avoid being charged

Guitar Tricks promotes time‑limited trials that convert to paid membership if you don’t cancel in time.

  • 14‑day trial converts to paid monthly

    The trial FAQ explains that the standard free trial runs for 14 days with no charge, then automatically converts into a paid Full Access monthly membership unless you cancel before it expires.support.guitartricks.com

  • Billing details collected upfront

    Guitar Tricks collects billing details when you start the trial for convenience but emphasizes that there is no charge during the stated trial period and that auto‑conversion triggers only after the trial ends.support.guitartricks.com

  • Cancelling a trial in account settings

    The same article instructs that you can cancel before the trial expires from your Guitar Tricks account settings page, which prevents the automatic conversion to a paid Full Access membership.support.guitartricks.com

  • Trial cancellation via support

    As an alternative, Guitar Tricks notes you can cancel your trial by emailing their support team, which aligns with the Terms of Service allowing cancellation via contact methods listed on the site.support.guitartricks.comguitartricks.com

  • Guarantee still applies to converted memberships

    Once a trial converts to a paid website Full Access subscription, it becomes eligible for the standard 60‑day money‑back guarantee window counted from the initial Full Access signup date, subject to the refund policy conditions.support.guitartricks.comguitartricks.com

After cancellation

What changes — and what doesn’t — after you cancel

Cancelling affects your paid access but does not automatically erase your presence on Guitar Tricks.

  • Website billing stops for future periods

    Under the Terms of Service, website subscriptions automatically renew but can be cancelled; once cancelled, future renewals stop and Guitar Tricks will refund payments made within 60 days of the payment date in line with its guarantee.guitartricks.com

  • Access normally continues until period end

    Guitar Tricks’ materials and Google Play’s subscription policy both state that when you cancel, you retain access for the time you’ve already paid for, and the subscription simply does not renew afterward.guitartricks.comsupport.google.com

  • Lifetime courses remain tied to your account

    The Terms describe Lifetime Courses as one‑time purchases that remain accessible so long as the user’s account is active and not cancelled, so stopping Full Access billing should not itself revoke Lifetime Course purchases.guitartricks.com

  • Basic membership and login may remain

    Help articles distinguish between managing billing and removing personal information; they do not state that your Guitar Tricks login or free Basic access is automatically deleted when you cancel billing, suggesting you can still sign in unless you separately request data removal.support.guitartricks.comsupport.guitartricks.com

  • App access depends on store subscription status

    For iOS and Android in‑app subscriptions, continued app access after cancellation is determined by Apple and Google’s subscription rules; once the store‑managed period ends, app‑only subscription benefits cease unless you still have an active website Full Access membership to sign in with.support.guitartricks.comsupport.google.comsupport.guitartricks.com

Extras

Lifetime courses, add‑ons, and how cancellation affects them

Guitar Tricks sells additional products whose status isn’t always identical to your subscription.

  • Lifetime Courses are separate from Full Access

    The Terms define Lifetime Courses as collections of courses sold for a one‑time fee that remain available as long as the associated Guitar Tricks account remains active, independent of a recurring Full Access subscription.guitartricks.com

  • Lifetime Courses may change over time

    Guitar Tricks reserves the right to alter, add, or remove Lifetime Courses at its discretion, so the exact contents may evolve even though your right to access the purchased collection continues while your account is active.guitartricks.com

  • Add‑ons and Full Access Plus

    Help center and forum discussions reference add‑on subscriptions and extras like Full Access Plus, managed separately from basic Full Access; their cancellation may require direct support assistance, and is one reason the Terms emphasize contacting support for some billing changes.guitartricks.comguitartricks.com

  • Store items like gift certificates and lessons

    The Guitar Tricks Store offers gift certificates and one‑on‑one lessons sold outside the core subscription; cancelling Full Access does not automatically cancel already‑purchased one‑off store products, though their scheduling and refund rules may differ.guitartricks.com

  • Refund coverage may not extend to all extras

    The refund FAQ and guarantee language focus on Full Access memberships and Android in‑app purchases, not on every possible add‑on or Lifetime Course, so you should review specific product terms or contact support for clarification before assuming refunds apply.support.guitartricks.comguitartricks.com

Help options

Where to get help if you can’t cancel online

Guitar Tricks provides multiple official support channels if you run into trouble cancelling.

  • Help Center for account and billing

    The Frequently Asked Questions area includes a “How to Manage Your Account” section with articles on checking account status, updating billing information, getting a refund, and cancelling your account, plus links to contact support.support.guitartricks.com

  • Dedicated cancellation and refund articles

    The specific “How do I cancel my account?” and “How do I get a refund?” articles walk through web cancellation steps, explain the 60‑day money‑back guarantee, and distinguish handling for Apple and Google Play purchases.support.guitartricks.comsupport.guitartricks.com

  • Contact Support section

    A Contact Support section in the Help Center aggregates links for account or billing questions, cancellations, technical support, and membership info, and points users to phone and email options maintained by Guitar Tricks.support.guitartricks.com

  • Email and phone options surfaced via links

    The “Give us a call or send us an email” article provides current phone and email contact methods for customer support; following that link is the safest way to obtain up‑to‑date contact details if online cancellation fails.support.guitartricks.com

  • Store and website contact links

    Site footers and the lesson search page include CONTACT US links, and the Terms reference a contact page URL, providing additional routes to reach Guitar Tricks staff about subscription issues if needed.guitartricks.comguitartricks.com

Watch‑outs

Common pitfalls when cancelling Guitar Tricks

Official materials highlight a few situations that can cause confusion or unintended renewals.

  • Cancelling in the wrong place

    Guitar Tricks repeatedly reminds users that app‑store purchases must be cancelled in the relevant store (Apple or Google), and website subscriptions through the account or by contacting support; cancelling in only one place can leave another subscription still active.support.guitartricks.comsupport.guitartricks.com

  • Uninstalling the app does not cancel

    Google’s subscription help explicitly warns that uninstalling an app does not cancel subscriptions, and Guitar Tricks’ app article assumes you’ll use account or Google Play settings instead, so always cancel the subscription itself.support.google.comsupport.guitartricks.com

  • Confusing trials with refunds

    The trial FAQ notes that trials convert automatically to paid memberships if not cancelled; separately, the refund policy requires that users cancel within 60 days of signing up to claim the guarantee, so simply stopping use without cancelling may not prevent charges.support.guitartricks.comsupport.guitartricks.com

  • Pausing versus cancelling

    On the web, some users may see an option to pause monthly billing when starting cancellation; this defers charges but is not the same as a full cancellation, and annual plans cannot be paused via this option.support.guitartricks.com

  • Multiple billing methods over time

    Forum and support content indicate that members may end up with subscriptions through cards, PayPal, Apple, or Google; when in doubt about where you’re billed, check receipts and the payment method in your Guitar Tricks account, Apple ID, or Google Play Subscriptions.guitartricks.comguitartricks.com

What official sources do not confirm

Limits of the public Guitar Tricks cancellation guidance

These points are intentionally qualified because the official sources reviewed on August 17, 2026 do not publish a complete answer.

  • Documented limitation 1

    Some privacy and data‑removal procedures are referenced only at a category level in the Help Center; the detailed article on removing personal information was not accessible during this audit, so guidance on data deletion remains high‑level.

  • Documented limitation 2

    Historic forum posts and older Help Center versions mention PayPal‑specific cancellation behavior; because the current 2026 cancellation article no longer repeats this and PayPal integrations can change, this guide does not describe a dedicated PayPal cancellation flow.

  • Documented limitation 3

    The exact in‑app navigation labels on iOS and Android (for example, Payment & subscriptions layout in Google Play) can change with OS updates; this guide relies on the latest Apple and Google support articles plus current Guitar Tricks help content but may not match every minor UI variation.
