Podbean is an official Apple Podcasts partner, so you can submit your podcast to Apple Podcasts directly from your Podbean dashboard. 


This guide explains how to check Apple Podcasts submission requirements, submit your podcast, and find your Apple Podcasts URL after approval.



Step 1: Prepare Your Podcast for Submission


From your Podbean podcast dashboard, go to Distribution -> Podcast Apps -> Apple Podcasts.


Before submitting your podcast, make sure it meets Apple Podcasts requirements.




Make sure that your podcast meets the following conditions:

  • Podcast Title & Description
    Provide a unique podcast title and a clear description.

  • Podcast Logo
    Upload an original logo with dimensions between 1400 x 1400 and 3000 x 3000 pixels, in JPG or PNG format.

  • Category
    Select at least one relevant podcast category.

  • Episodes
    Published at least one episode in Apple Podcasts' supported file format.

  • Language
    Set the language for your podcast.

  • Country
    Ensure the country selected in Settings is included in Apple Podcasts’ allowed countries list.

  • Directory Visibility
    Make sure "Remove from Apple Directory" is turned off under Advanced Feed Settings.



Step 2: Submit to the Apple Podcasts directory with one click


Once your podcast meets Apple Podcasts' requirements, you can proceed by selecting your Content Rights and setting the Update Frequency. 


After reviewing and agreeing to Apple Podcasts' Content Requirements, click the "Submit to Apple Podcasts" button to complete the submission.


Your podcast will be submitted to Apple Podcasts for review. 


When your podcast is up on Apple Podcasts, your Apple Podcasts URL will be displayed here and we will also send you an email with the Apple Podcasts URL for your podcast.



An Apple Podcasts icon will then be displayed on your podcast website, directing your audience to your Apple Podcasts page and making it easy for them to access your podcast across different apps.
