FreemiumBoomy operates on a freemium model. Free plan: unlimited song creation with a limited number of song saves (around 5 saves), personal downloads, and no streaming distribution included. Creator plan: currently listed on boomy.com/pricing at a promotional $14.99/month (33% off standard pricing), which adds hundreds of song saves, more MP3 downloads per month, faster release review, and permission to distribute downloaded songs to streaming platforms (DSPs) for non-commercial use. Pro plan: currently listed at a promotional $29.99/month (25% off a $39.99/month list price), which unlocks unlimited song saves, roughly 250 WAV downloads per month, advanced song editing tools, and full commercial rights for podcasts, social media, and ads. Historical pricing reported by third-party reviewers has varied ($2.99–$14.99 for Creator and $9.99–$29.99 for Pro), so prospective users should confirm current rates on Boomy's official pricing page, as the platform runs frequent promotions.
