Why are there ads on the mobile app and web player?

We’ve made an important update to the Stingray Music mobile app and web player experience. To continue offering a wide variety of expertly curated music channels to millions of listeners around the world, we have introduced ads to all free Stingray Music channels on the mobile app and web player. This change helps us maintain and improve the quality of our service, support the artists you love, and ensure that everyone can continue enjoying Stingray Music — completely free.

What does this mean for you? 

  • If you’re enjoying Premium Stingray Music on the mobile app or web player for free through your TV provider, you may now hear occasional ads between songs.

  • If you’re a paid Stingray Music Premium subscriber, your experience remains 100% ad-free — with uninterrupted listening, unlimited skips, and the highest audio quality.

Want an ad-free experience?

You can upgrade to Stingray Music Premium* at any time to enjoy:

  • Unlimited, ad-free listening
