Four steps. The same on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux.
Quick answer
To transfer Deezer to SoundCloud, install FreeYourMusic, select Deezer as the source and SoundCloud as the destination, choose the playlists you want, and start the transfer. The app finds each song on SoundCloud and lists any track it could not match.

Connect Deezer as the source

Select what to move
Tick the playlists you want on SoundCloud. Use the filters and the search field to find them, or select everything to move your whole Deezer library at once.

Start the transfer and check the results

Moving from Deezer to SoundCloud, explained
SoundCloud is home to the music the majors miss — independent uploads, remixes, DJ sets and tracks posted straight by artists. Moving there from Deezer keeps your mainstream collection while opening up that more open, community-driven world. FreeYourMusic reads your Deezer library through Deezer’s official sign-in and recreates it inside SoundCloud — playlists and followed artists, wherever SoundCloud carries them.
This guide covers what transfers, what cannot, how songs are matched, how long it takes, and how the two services really differ. If you just want to start, install FreeYourMusic, connect both accounts and pick what to move — the detail is below.
What transfers to SoundCloud, and what does not
Your playlists move with names and order intact, and followed artists carry over where SoundCloud has them. Favourites do not carry over as likes. Move everything or choose playlists individually, with counts shown before you commit.
Expect a different match rate than a mainstream-to-mainstream move, since SoundCloud is built on independent uploads. Deezer’s Flow does not follow, uploaded MP3s have no equivalent, and podcasts stay behind. In return, SoundCloud holds remixes and edits Deezer does not carry.
How FreeYourMusic matches your tracks
Each Deezer track is matched to the closest recording on SoundCloud, preferring the ISRC code where a release carries one and falling back to title, artist and duration otherwise. For mainstream releases officially on SoundCloud, matching is dependable.
Because so much of SoundCloud is user-uploaded, some studio tracks will not have an official counterpart. FreeYourMusic never silently drops anything — uncertain tracks are flagged for one-tap Rematch, so you decide whether an alternative is close enough.
How long does a Deezer to SoundCloud transfer take?
Most transfers finish in minutes. With both accounts connected, around 1,000 tracks usually completes in under ten minutes, though match-checking on an independent catalogue can add a little time. Larger libraries take longer, but the transfer runs on its own.
FreeYourMusic runs natively on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux, so the move is not tied to one device. Start it on your laptop and follow along on your phone; it is the same account and the same transfer.
Deezer vs SoundCloud: what actually changes
These services solve different problems. Deezer is the polished mainstream — a broad licensed catalogue with Flow and lossless HiFi. SoundCloud is the open frontier: unsigned artists, remixes, DJ mixes and community around uploads, with a free tier. Many people keep both.
The practical difference is coverage. For chart hits and licensed albums, Deezer wins on completeness; for edits, bootlegs and artist-posted tracks, SoundCloud is unmatched. Moving your Deezer library over gives you a familiar base inside that more adventurous space.
Do you need to keep Deezer while you transfer?
Yes — keep Deezer active until the transfer is finished and checked. FreeYourMusic reads your Deezer library while copying it into SoundCloud, and keeping both live means you never lose access mid-move.
Both services have free tiers, so neither side needs a paid plan for the move, while SoundCloud’s paid tiers add offline listening. Both connect through their own official sign-in, and your password is never shared with FreeYourMusic.
Tips for a clean migration
Because SoundCloud coverage varies by track, transfer a representative playlist first and review the matches before moving everything — it sets realistic expectations for how much of your mainstream library has an official presence there. Tidy your playlists beforehand.
When the transfer finishes, spend a little longer on the Rematch list; a good alternative upload is often a tap away. Then explore the remixes and edits of your favourite tracks — that is the reason SoundCloud is worth having.
Keeping Deezer and SoundCloud in sync afterwards
A one-time move is not your only option. Since many listeners keep both, FreeYourMusic’s Auto-Sync mirrors the libraries on a schedule so a track you add to a Deezer playlist appears on SoundCloud where it exists there.
And the transfer runs the other way too, from SoundCloud back to Deezer, if you want to bring discoveries home. Your collection stays portable. Download FreeYourMusic, connect Deezer and SoundCloud, and see how much comes across — the free tier lets you try first.
