awful

Changing my review to 1 after they cancelled my account for no reason and without explanation with money owing in Stripe which they will not let me withdraw.
Their customer service cancelled my ticket when I enquired as to why.

If you promote your podcast well they cut you off because you build an audience. They owe me over $250 and will never pay it out because they don't like the reach I have obtained.

Red Circle has the worst customer…

Red Circle has the worst customer service I have experienced in the podcast platform world. They pay very low for ads and then freeze accounts without any explanation. When you work hard to build a podcast audience and then they freeze your ads and not it’s you, feels pretty dishonest to me. I would avoid them if you want to make money on your podcast.

Great support!


I would like to take a moment to commend the outstanding service provided by Red Circle’s podcast advertising sales team and their robust hosting platform. As the host of Real Life Real Crime, I have experienced firsthand how dedicated and effective the team is in promoting our podcast and securing unique advertising opportunities.

The sales team consistently goes above and beyond to understand our goals and audience, allowing them to tailor their strategies effectively. They actively seek out diverse advertisers who align with our content, which has not only boosted our revenue but has also enriched our listener experience. It’s refreshing to work with a team that is so invested in our success.

Moreover, Red Circle’s hosting platform is user-friendly and reliable, making it easy for us to upload episodes, monitor analytics, and engage with our audience. Their commitment to supporting podcasters is evident in every interaction, and their knowledge of the podcasting landscape is impressive.

Overall, I highly recommend Red Circle for any podcaster looking to elevate their advertising game while enjoying a reliable hosting experience. Their professionalism and innovative approach are truly commendable!

As a user I would like the ep# to show on the episode list. I would like to see more transparency on the ads that will play( for instance having a sponsor already added in and then the ad plays on the same episode of the competitor) I would like to know what company will play

Really great podcast hosting service!

Sometimes having several podcasts at once is difficult, but they make it easy with tutorials on how to do everything. Their customer service is also super friendly and quick to respond.

No reason not to use Redcircle. The BEST!

I searched many, many different podcast hosting platforms before I ended up withRedCircle. Let me tell you that they offer the best deal out there. The services offered honestly sounded too good to be true, but I’ve been with them for over 4 years now and they have lived up to their word. They found me sponsors for my show, gave me full rights to everything that I have published, unlimited episodes, unlimited uploads and have easy to use tools to use all in my own browser. I did have one issue that required me to reach out to Customer Support and it was resolved quickly and with much attention. There is no reason not to use them when you consider what else is out there. Redcircle is the REAL DEAL! Highly recommended by me.

Top Notch Hosting Platform

I have hosted my podcast on several different platforms and have settled on RedCircle. The interface is intuitive, you can host multiple shows, it has a promo swap feature, and the dynamic insertion is great too. Customer service is responsive as well. Overall, RedCircle has everything I'm looking for in a host and I have been very happy with it.

They make it difficult to cancel your subscription

They are more than happy to take your money without authorization. Don’t give them your credit card. They make it difficult to cancel your subscription

Hey There, we're sorry to hear about your experience! It is important to note that listener sponsorships are managed by the Podcaster themselves.

Additionally, Exclusive Content does automatically renew and this is made known through the payment confirmation email as well as visible at all times on your RedCircle account. When you sponsor a podcast, you agree to this automatic renewal.

Listeners are welcome to cancel their subscription at *any* time by simply logging into the RedCircle account and clicking the "Cancel Sponsorship" link on the Podcast page. We even have step-by-step instructions available in our Help Center: https://support.redcircle.com/how-to-cancel-a-sponsorship

We hope this helps!
