Paid audio products and private memberships with app and web listening. Check delivery requirements for your public show.
Soundwise sells and delivers audio products, including subscriptions, rentals and bundles. Listeners can use its mobile app or web player.
It also supports public podcast feeds: Plus includes five, while Pro and Platinum list unlimited feeds. The old catalog claim that it cannot publish external RSS feeds was incorrect.
Plus limits private soundcasts to 200 listeners. Pro removes that listener cap, but both plans retain a 150 GB monthly bandwidth allowance. Platinum adds white-label mobile apps and unlimited bandwidth.
The platform lists a 0% transaction fee on all three plans. Budget for the subscription, any payment-processing costs and the delivery limits relevant to your audience.

Standard $49/month + 4.9% transaction fee; free to try until you go live and accept paymentsThe gotchaIt does not host your MP3s. Weak host security (guessable public paths) undermines the private feed, and some players (historically Stitcher) cannot add custom feeds.

$0.59 per subscriber per month + Stripe fees (price checked 2026-09-07)The gotchaThe fee scales with every paying subscriber, and Spotify linking still breaks for some listeners even when Apple works.
