Getting “Listeners’ Support” from Donations on Your Anchor Podcast

Kargaletta Lolita Davis’ Podcast

I just discovered yesterday about the "Listener Support from Donations" on your Anchor Podcast. This section is not available on the Anchor App, but once you have logged into your Anchor account under the "Money Section/Menu," you will have to scroll down and it is the section, after Sponsorships. Here is the link, giving more detail about your listener supporters, https://help.anchor.fm/hc/en-us/articles/360007452031-Listener-Support-accept-monthly-donations-from-your-listeners. This option is currently only available in these United States of North America and Anchor has a partnership with Stripe to process these payments. Also, note Anchor states that, "If you’ve used the ‘Music’ tool to add copyrighted songs to any of your episodes on Anchor, you won’t be able to enable Listener Support until you have removed all music from your existing episodes." In addition, it appears that the donations are set to be recurring, so if you want to cancel any recurring donation; then you would have to contact Anchor. Anchor list the tiers that are available, which can be as low as $1 per month, $4.99 per month, or $9.99 per month. So, even though, the listener support is only available to podcaster in these United States of North America, you can still receive or you listeners can still support your podcast on any continent. Additional important notes stated on Anchor's website: "Supporting a Podcast To support a podcast from its Anchor profile, click ‘Support this podcast’ at the top of the page. What to do next: Choose the pricing tier you wish to use. Current options are $0.99, $4.99, or $9.99. All of these will renew monthly automatically. Enter your name, email address, and card information (or, pay with one tap if your device has Apple Pay or Google Pay enabled). Click to pay at the bottom of the screen. Note: You won’t see the option to support a podcast if the Anchor creator hasn’t enabled Listener Support for their podcast. If there’s a podcast you’d love to support who hasn’t done this yet, let them know! We’re sure they’d love to hear from you. After signing up to support a podcast, you'll receive a confirmation email from Anchor. If at any time you want to cancel your subscription, just click the link in your original confirmation email to update it or you can contact Anchor Support and they will help you get your subscription canceled." Having listeners supporting your podcast is another great option, while you are building up your listenership to reach the targeted goal of "50 unique listeners." Always, thanks for tuning in and turning it up, Kargaletta Lolita Davis
