Fountain for Podcasters
Convert listeners into supporters. Seriously powerful podcast hosting that makes monetization simple.
You can now subscribe to certain shows on Fountain including @TFTC , @THE Bitcoin Podcast and @Plebchain Radio to get benefits including bonus episodes, early access, and ad-free listening.
If the last thing you need is another subscription, you can purchase individual episodes instead.
Pay with Lightning or pay with card ⚡️💳
15–20% of U.S. listeners have paid for podcast content.
Make subscriptions, paywalls, and donations seamless, and that number will skyrocket.
That's why we built Fountain for Podcasters — powerful podcast hosting, simple monetization.
Schedule a demo and switch to the freedom tech stack of RSS + Lightning + Nostr.
YouTube is now using AI to determine if you're under 18 to "protect" minors from sensitive content.
In other words, big tech is censoring information which is freely available via open RSS in most podcast apps.
