Why Glow is better.

Glow was created by podcasters and for podcasters who wanted better tools to grow and monetize their shows.  We built Glow to be the easiest way for you to build a relationship with your listener, on your terms.

We're easier for listeners.

In less than thirty seconds, your listeners go from hearing your call to action to hearing your bonus content in their app of choice. Frictionless payments, no new apps, no copying and pasting an RSS feed.

“What we needed was a streamlined, simple user experience that is all designed and based around the podcast app that you’re listening in...If someone’s going to take their hard-earned money and give it to you, it needs to be as simple, fast and as seamless as possible. Glow does that.”

"Glow’s flexibility has been amazing for us at Acquired — especially as we’ve experimented with our bonus content offering. They’ve allowed us to offer monthly and annual subscriptions, give gift subscriptions to guests who come on the show, and give free trials to all new listeners, which has been incredibly impactful on our conversion numbers."

We’re flexible for podcasters.

Design your program on your own terms. We don’t legislate the best way to do it – you choose whether you want monthly, annual, or one-time payments, or all three. Free trials, gift subscriptions, it’s all an option.

“Despite the incredible amount of attention going toward podcast listening in 2019, creators have lacked the tools to be able to monetize the incredible relationship they have with their audience.”
