Castos Ads questions
Does Castos have dynamic ad insertion?
Yes. Castos Ads is built-in dynamic ad insertion. When you switch it on, Castos inserts short pre-roll and post-roll ads into your episodes as they're downloaded, including episodes you published years ago.
Who can use Castos Ads?
Every Castos customer. There's nothing to apply for, no waiting list, and no minimum audience size. Turn it on for any show.
Do I need sponsors or a big audience?
No. Most ad networks won't talk to you until you have tens of thousands of downloads. Castos Ads starts earning from your first download and grows as your audience grows.
Can I monetize old podcast episodes?
Yes. Because ads are inserted at download time, your entire back catalog can earn, not just new releases.
How do I get paid?
Earnings are paid out monthly. You can pause or turn off ads for a show at any time.
What's the difference between Castos Ads and Campaigns?
Castos Ads fills your ad spots automatically and pays you for them. Campaigns lets you add your own audio, like sponsor reads, promos, or announcements, across your episodes for the dates you choose.
