Gift a membership

Give the gift of music

One gift, access to every teacher on MusicGurus. A membership is the nudge someone needs to finally start — or finally get good. Pick a membership length, write them a note, and we'll deliver it on the day you choose.

How gifting works

Three steps, no awkward surprises.

01

You personalise it

Pick a length, write your note and choose the day it should land. Pay once — we don't set up a subscription, for you or for them.

02

We email their gift on the day you chose

They get your message, your name and a redeem link. If you scheduled it, nothing arrives early, and you get a copy so you know it went. Rather hand it over yourself? Choose a printable card instead and nothing is emailed.

03

They redeem, and their time starts then

A gift bought in November and redeemed in January runs from January. Twelve months means twelve months of playing, not of waiting.

What's included

Everything's included.

A gift membership is the full MusicGurus library — the same access a paying member gets, for the length you choose.

5,000+ video lessons

Structured courses from 100+ gurus — conservatoire heads, session players, touring names — filmed close enough to see the fingering.

Interactive sheet music

Play-along songbooks that slow down, loop a bar and follow the cursor. Practice material, not PDFs.

Any instrument they fancy

Piano, guitar, voice, drums, bass, sax, strings, production and songwriting — they can switch mid-gift and start again.

On every screen

Web, iPad, phone — the tablet on the music stand and the telly in the front room, with progress carried across.

Questions

Before you buy

Does a gift membership auto-renew?

No. It's a single payment for a fixed length. We don't take card details from the recipient and no subscription is created, so there's nothing to cancel and no charge when it ends. They'll get a reminder a week before it runs out with the option to continue themselves.

When does their membership actually start?

On the day they redeem the gift, not the day you buy it. Buy in November for a Christmas delivery and redeem in January — the clock starts in January.

What if they already subscribe to MusicGurus?

They can still redeem it. The gift is added to their account as a separate pre-paid pass, so nothing changes about their own plan. If they'd rather not pay while the gift runs, they can cancel their subscription and let the gift carry them.

Can I choose when it's delivered?

Yes. Pick any future date and the email goes out that morning, not before, and we send you a copy so you know it landed. Picked the wrong date? Email support before it sends and we'll change it.

Does the gift code expire?

No. The code doesn't expire, so there's no rush to redeem it, and their months only start on the day they do. Need the email sent again? Ask support and we'll resend it.

Can I get a refund?

Full refund within 30 days as long as the gift hasn't been redeemed — including gifts still waiting on a scheduled send date. Email support and we'll sort it.

Can I give it as a printed card?

Yes. Choose "Print a card to give" when you set it up and nothing is emailed to them. As soon as you've paid you can download a folding card with their name, your message, the gift code and a QR code. Print it at home on A4 or US Letter, fold it twice and hand it over. It's ready in minutes, so it works as a last-minute present too, and you can download it again any time from Gifts you've sent in your account.

Someone you know is one nudge from starting.

Pick a length, write them something, and we'll do the rest.
