How Podbean Paid Subscription works

Posted by faq on March 22nd, 2007

	Publishing the Premium content for Paid Subscription Firstly, the podcaster must publish the Premium Content that will be used for paid subscription. Then a paid subscription link will be automatically be generated for each Premium post. The podcaster may then elect to add his/her own customizable paid subscription widget button to the sidebar (see left), with the user then able to click on any one of the links to go to the subscribing page.
	Subscribing the Premium Content In relation to the user, the Premium Content subscribing page will look similar to the picture on the right. The premium content information that the podcaster listed in their Premium setting page will now be displayed for the user to view and a subscriber can now pay the premium content subscription value listed via Paypal. This is a simple as the subscriber/user clicking on the ‘order now’ button, which will then take them to the Paypal payment page.
	Paid subscription Confirmation Messages After a subscriber makes a payment in Paypal, a confirmation email with paid subscription access information will be sent to the subscriber. The premium content podcaster will then receive a Podbean internal message notice in the Podbean ‘My Inbox’.
	Premium Payment Info Each payment transaction will be shown in Podcaster’s ‘Premium Accounting’ page located in the Premium menu and under sub-menu ‘Accounting’, as pictured left. There is a service fee on each premium payment transaction. Please see our fee schedule for details.
	Access Paid Premium Content in iTunes Paid subscribers can also subscribe to the Premium content via iTunes using a valid user name and password.
	Access Paid Premium Content in Premium Subscription Page Paid subscribers can access subscribed podcasts any time in Premium Podcaster’s site. The url will be http://username.podbean.com/premium-subscription . If the user name is “demo”, the url will be “http://demo.podbean.com/premium-subscription”. Premium subscribers can change password, download subscribed content and subscribe to iTunes all through this page.
