Get started
1. Sign up for Podyssey
Download the iOS or Android app to sign up for a Podyssey account.
We encourage you to sign up as yourself, not your podcast, so that you can be more personable and approacheable to listeners. You can indicate on your bio that you are the host of your podcast.
2. Verify your podcast
Submit this form to verify your account, tell us more about your podcast, and how we can help you succeed. We are currently building out creator-specific tools such as verification badges and will contact you when they're available.
3. Add the Podyssey badge to your website
Tell your listeners they can recommend and listen to your podcast and episodes on Podyssey by displaying our badge on your website, social media, and apps. To download SVG and PNG versions of the badges, click here (.zip). Search for the link to your podcast and episodes on Podyssey.
4. Recommend your episodes on Podyssey
Let the Podyssey community know you've joined by recommending your favourite episodes on Podyssey with interesting information that's not already on your show notes. You are welcome to recommend episodes of your own show, but constant self-promoting is frowned about in our community. So mix it up, because your listeners also want to know what else you're listening too!
